You know you live out in the country when...

I think what helps ups more so than other delivery companies is that we bid our routes learn them and stay on them.  I know an address just by looking at their name.  Its creepy when I think about how much I know about peoples lives out here.  If something does not make it to your house its because the cover driver was out there that day.

I can only see one house from mine and I can only see it when the leaves are off.

Same here and the only reason I can is because 40 acre property next to us harvested their timber. Someone bought the 60 acres next to us and just put up a couple buildings we can see over the hill. There's been nothing on that land ever except cattle and more recently a truffle farm that got eaten up by deer. 

USPS won't come down here. It's about a mile up and down our driveway and down a dirt road to the mailbox. Amazon and UPS are quite familiar with our road and driveway though. It's pretty bad.

    • That was always the fear, expectation, concern, etc, I had.  Someone showed a still shot from his pick last game and said it showed that the defender closed 3 yards on that ball in the last portion of its flight. I forget the number. 10 yards I think it said but that sounds extreme.  When guys are open by a step, any slowing down to wait for the ball lets the defender back into the play. That sort of stuff makes the margins so small… these NFL CBs are not slow.   It is a league that highly values foot speed; the 40 times and drill times are scrutinized down to the hundredth of a second when evaluating these players on both sides of the passing game. Receivers and defenders both.   My thing with his arm strength (or anyone’s) was always “why do you want to do that? Plus pay extra picks to put yourself in that situation?”. Asking for trouble.     I wish there was a way to measure velocity on the back half of a throw compared to when it left the hand. Or really get accurate reading of the flight time of a ball from the near hash to the sideline, 10 yards down the field. Because teams could use that info. I have always seen this as being a disadvantage with Bryce but it is beyond my ability to quantify it.   I think it would show what that arm strength is really about, a lot more than just measuring how much air can you put under it so it will fly as far as possible.

    • Its a detriment if he can't play...as we are seeing.
