    Exclamation Elkton VA PO - Hard to Find

    The Elkton post office is located on the NW corner of Hwy 340 and W Rockingham Street, across the street from the 7-Eleven. Unfortunately, it's very hard to find because a large bush obscures your view of a front corner of the building - including the address and door to the PO boxes. Late last week I drove by it twice, before I followed a PO truck into it's parking lot. A SOBO hiker I was shuttling said he wouldn't of seen it coming into Elton from Hwy 33 onto Hwy 340 N. Their phone number is 540 298 7772

    PS: Next to the Elkton McDonalds there is a Norfolk and Western railroad car with a green light shining on top. A nearby placard reads, "Green lights because we recognize our Veterans every day, not just one." God bless America!

    Seems to me that Google Maps, etc. would have shown the way on a phone.

    Waze showed me where it was but the name and address of the PO were hidden behind the bush. I'M sure the punch line for a good joke is close by.
