We're running out of reasons to visit the old post office in Salvo, North Carolina - which is relatively close (20 miles) to the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse.
I'm sure it served its purpose in the small town in its day. It was the second-smallest post office in the country, behind one in Florida. Apparently it was designed to be portable, so that the postmaster could move it to his property.
However, the post office - which is on the National Register of Historic Places - has been closed for some time. There was talking to tearing it down, but according to the video below it was fixed up a bit. The building still stands there as a reminder of a different time.
