In small towns across Kentucky that don't have home delivery, the post office is a lifeline for prescription medicines, checks, letters, and more.
A proposal by the U.S. Postal Service in 2011 to close thousands of rural post offices drew protests all over the country. Now the postal service has backed away from that idea, and instead is proposing shorter business hours. That plan would be phased in over a two-year period.
The post office serves as the social center of small communities, a gathering place where people catch up with their neighbors. We visit the small town of Essie in Leslie County and catch up with James Bowling, the current postmaster there, and talk about small towns and their post offices.
