About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a little boy walked into the Plano Post Office and asked the clerk, ‘Why is the mailman talking to that mailbox like it’s alive?’ Everyone in line froze for a second, then burst out laughing. The clerk smiled and replied, 'Oh, he’s not talking to it—he’s just checking if there’s anything inside.' The boy nodded thoughtfully, then turned around and saw an old lady next door whispering to her mailbox. He whispered back, ‘I get it now.’ Everyone laughed again, and the day at the Plano Post Office continued with a touch of magic.
2. A postal worker was sorting mail one afternoon when she noticed something strange. A package addressed simply to ‘The Biggest Fan’ kept arriving daily, always unsigned and without return address. Finally, the curious worker decided to open it herself. Inside was a handwritten note: 'Dear Friend, I love your smile!' Turned out, it was from a regular who never wanted anyone to know he had a crush on her.
3. One day, an elderly gentleman entered the Plano Post Office and approached the counter with a curious expression. The clerk looked up from her stack of letters and said, ‘Sir, can I help you?’ To which he replied, ‘I just wanted to remind everyone that today is National Donut Day!’ The clerk smiled warmly and responded, 'Thank you for reminding us!' Just then, a delivery driver walked in and asked where to drop off some packages. With a twinkle in his eye, the old man whispered to the clerk, 'And don't forget to give him a donut too!' Everyone laughed, and the rest of the day was filled with smiles and free donuts.
4. At dawn, a delivery driver pulled up to the Plano Post Office's Coit Station with a truckload of packages. As he unloaded, he noticed something peculiar on top of a box: a tiny envelope addressed simply to ‘The Morning Sunrise’. Curious, he opened it and found just one sheet of paper inside: 'Dear Morning Sunrise, please deliver these packages with love.' He smiled, shook his head, and carried on with his route. Later that day, a regular neighbor saw him and asked what was so funny. With a twinkle in his eye, he replied, “I don’t know, but I’m delivering sunshine today.”
