Letterboxing Northern California - Yahoo Groups Archive

I want to encourage everyone to use common sense, and not hike alone at the event this weekend. Although most people's experiences at Alum Rock Park are positive, we still should use caution. I also...

>the discussion about cookies is not part of the official gathering or buying letterboxing patches I'd guess. Thanks for the review, wasn't aware of these...

Princess Lea, do you still have Girl Scout cookies in stock? What's your inventory like? [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

I just added a new Traveller to my AQ logbook that I'll be bringing to the gathering on Sunday, but I'm not seeing it in the list of travellers on the Event page. Is it not showing up because it's...

So, I've pretty much decided I'm going to attend the gathering this weekend, but haven't been following the preparations. I see it's a potluck. Is there food assignments or a signup sheet? Oh! ...

Ebay was selling fake dog poop geocache containers. Don't see them on there now but there have been some! LW --------------------------------- Don't pick lemons. See all the new 2007 cars at...

Hi all, It's been a while since most of you heard from me. I've had a busy and stressful couple of months that haven't quite let up yet... and I have a tendency to flit between hobbies, all of...

Hi All! Some family plans changed and I might be able to come with my son on Sunday to the Alum Rock gathering...is it still open for people to join in the fun? We are baby beginners and wouldn't...

We will not make it to Saturday's gathering due to other family obligations that day. We wish you all extreme stealth and fun. Confound those Muggles, find the hidden treasures (boxes and eggs!),...

I just got this message from the Railroad Museum: Message: We have rattlesnake dick at the railroad museum. Contact the guide staff to retrieve. Anybody have any plans to go to Old Sac anytime...

Is everyone getting ready for the April Fool's event? How are we planning on handing out last-minute clues? Lisa

Hello, We've been out of letterboxing for almost 2 years, and it doesn't look like we're coming back. We just don't have time to do it without our son's participation and he is no longer...

I think that "Bufflehead" may be about the funniest bird name around (excepting, of course, the "Blue Footed Boobie"), so in honor of this delightful duckie, I've planted another Aquatic Bird...

The date is set, it's up on Atlas Quest and I'm counting the days. (175 to go...LOL) We finally picked September 15th as the date for the Sacramento gathering. It is going to be at the William B....

Just to tease everyone, I'll share *part* of an email I got today. "My name is Andie and I work for (secret location at where this letterbox is hidden). I found your "St. George Letterbox and...

Well, if you can't beat 'em..join 'em....right? lol http://www.atlasquest.com/gallery/viewphoto.html?gPhotoId=10745 I am happy to debut a new patch..the Blue Diamond Worthy Letterboxer" patch....

Yeah, this Princess doesn't do well in the heat - I would much rather be cold than hot. The Nevada event sounds most intriguing! They don't know the forecast yet for 4/1, but for the 28th they are...

So, Robb and I just got back from the Pacific Northwest, which we as West-Coast Newbies, had never visited. Boy do those letterboxers know how to throw an event! I've never seen so many personal...

Oh, dear! I just read Grinch's post. I have to warn you that she has been banned from the State of Nevada for trying to cram a letterbox into a penny slot machine at the Silver Legacy last...

Just something I thought of about Alum Rock Park, where the event is taking place in a couple of weeks. Although they charge $6 per car to enter the park, there is a parking area just outside of...

Okay, I've got a date for getting together to dye Ukrainian Easter Eggs. How does the Saturday before Easter strike you all? That would be April 7th, at my studio. Berkeley Repertory...

Hi, Most of you don't know me, and the very few who do only through a few e-mails under my trail-name. I'm a very casual letter-boxer and somewhat shy in groups. This said, I feel I really need to...

Has anyone other than me been contacted by this tv show to discuss doing a piece about letterboxing? I figure that they're going to do a tv segment on letterboxing, whether or not we want them to,...

Well this is probably totally inappropriate to post this solicitation on the board, but I'm a moderator so I figure I'll just censure myself later. It is Girl Scout Cookie season and Sleepy Cat...

I placed the order for the patches today, and they are supposed to arrive within 14 days. Here is the final proof from the patch company:...
