State's tiniest U.S. Post Office. Operated by one woman who uses her personal vehicle to deliver the mail. Possibly the second smallest post office in America. It's the size of a very small shed or outbuilding.

Actually it's not the second smallest. The USPS says there are at least two smaller post offices. One, the smallest in the country, is in Ochopee, Florida, located in the Everglades. The second smallest post office in America is out on North Carolina's Outer Banks in the community of Salvo.
