It is now Feb 9 and all 4 pieces are sitting in a USPS "transfer point" undelivered. That's more than $40 paid the USPS wasted. Granted there was a major snow storm in this area on Jan 24 (9 days after I mailed the 4 pieces), but roads (and runways) have been cleared for days. I was warned about government inefficiencies in this part of VA before I moved here. Now I've experienced it first hand. The question I ask is, why do people here put up with it?

Although not much to see on the outside of this busy post office in Charlottesville, VA, it's cool…read morethat it's conveniently located right on the promenade of the downtown mall. It's a rather large facility and it was busy, but the lines were organized by a queue that moved fast. It was beautifully maintained out front, although we did see some "loitering" by the steps. It was clean and tidy on the inside, which was a bright sunny spacious lobby. There was a big greeting card kiosk and plenty of mailing & shipping supplies offered. Also, there a lots of P.O. Boxes available inside. The downside is the parking as you need to park on the street or in the nearby parking deck. The lobby is understandably only open during business hours due to the many people wandering around the mall area to keep it safe and avoid folks "squatting" inside. But perhaps for that reason, it's inconvenient for people who may need to pick up their mail after hours. Hours M-F 8:30-5:00, closed Saturday

So my daughter just called and said can you go to the door and get my package. I open the door and…read moreNO PACKAGE. Instead of the delivery driver putting the package in front the RIGHT APARTMENT whick is clearly on the package, he decided to put it at the bottom of the stairs . I live in an Apt complex so this could have been stolen or taken. They need to place packages IN FRONT OF THE RIGHT APARTMENT. NOT WHEREVER they see fit. STOP BEING LAZY AND DO YOUR JOB RIGHT.

This small, bright cottage-like white post office is trimmed in black with its prominent portico leading into the main office. It is full of charm, lined with well manicured greenery on either side of the building. Inside is tidy and displays a big bulletin board with local information and advertising. The postmaster was cordial and welcoming. This kind of post office suits me to the letter! Across the street is a cool antique shop that's a must see! Hours: M-F 9:00-1:30, 2:30-4:00, Saturday 8:00-10:30. No passport service.

Inside was just a bland as the outside, and it was quite dirty and dingy. The floors were all stained and the walls were patchy and in desperate need of a paint job! Supplies were low and overall a disappointing visit to this government building. I hope they spice it up a bit because Crozet deserves better!!

The flowers are donated…read moreand maintained by the Keswick Garden Club which has been instrumental in the beautification of many places in this small community. The Garden Club was established in 1958 and is active in the Charlottesville area. That's indeed flower power! Keswick is cute little "town" that is home to a lovely winery and vineyard nestled in the mountains a few miles east of Charlottesville. It's mainly a residential and farmland area with no town square or downtown district, although there are some large estates and clubs in Keswick. The post office is really the center of town, and is at the curve of the main road where a historical marker is situated. It has a small population of about 320 people but the post office delivers to several other small towns not big enough to have their own post office. This post office is eye-catching with its beige exterior highlighted with black trim, black shutters, and even a hint of black Spanish tiles. Inside, there are wood-like floors, lots of light, and it's neat as a pin. Love this post office! Hours M-F 9:00-12:00, 1:00-5:00 Closed Saturday

The mural, painted by Sheffield Kagy , depicts Luray in 1840 with Louis Ramey's blacksmith shop, farmers and horses with houses and the Blue Ridge Mountains in the background. Not only is the massive colonial brick building historic, built in 1938, built it has many unique architectural features. Inside is fabulous! Lots of rich wood paneling with artistic cutouts, brass mailboxes and mail slots, gold lettering at the windows, yet the wood floor has been preserved by adding carpet. No passport service but it is handicap accessible. Hours Monday-Friday 8:30-4:30

The inside is paneled with wood, reminiscent of a 70's den or basement. There's also that vintage linoleum!
