Is planting fewer letterboxes acting strange?

I'd have to agree with missmoon here. One well done letterbox is
enough for me to find in a day. I live in an area where there are not
very many letterboxes at all, but I still wonder where people will be
placing them in ten years. We don't talk much about retiring
letterboxes. But ideally, that is how each letterbox would finish
it's life. And eventually we would hear about retiring boxes almost
as frequently as newly planted ones. I'm just echoing that at some
point saturation will occur and change the way we do things.

Where's the fun in that? It's fishing in a barrel. And I'd rather
plant one really cool one that took some time to do than go out on
weekends and plant tons of them each time. But that's just me.

Gee, that's kind of nice. A letterbox has a nice long life and then gets to retire to a nice warm climate. We could get them all gold watches, have a dinner, make speeches. "This letterbox has served us well......."
