Letterboxing Northern California - Yahoo Groups Archive

Hello, I will be traveling to San Francisco soon and, if possible, I would love to find a few boxes while I am there. I will be at the Golden Gateway Holiday Inn, which seems to be near the...

Hi Folks, I made a special trip to Gilroy today to visit the Hitchhiker Hostel only to find the hostel is EMPTY. The logbook for the hostel is there, but there is not a single hitchhiker in...

The voting time is over, and the winning California Letterboxing Patch is... *drumroll*... Number Nine! As I mentioned earlier on the SoCal board, I really liked the #7 entry's idea of using...

Don't forget, we have just under 24 hours left to vote in the poll that will decide the official letterboxing patch for California, so please make your voice heard!...

Because I feel it is my civic duty to make my fellow letterboxers laugh, I offer the following. This has to be the best first sentence for a news article, ever: "A jazz musician was injured Friday...

Would anyone be interesting in getting together and learning to make Ukrainian Easter Eggs? (I think that at least Esmecat does this already...) Robb and I were thinking of resuming our...

Hi boxers: I've just updated the Patch Poll page to reflect the top 3 vote getters for a special runoff vote. Originally we were going to wait until midnight tonight but the top 3 were far ahead of...

Lisa, I think it was polite, friendly, diplomatic, and firm all at the same time. Bravo! Mims

Y'all may recall the first time letterboxer who wrote me, telling me that she had gone after the Scharffenberger letterbox, and when she didn't find it, she enlisted the staff and passers-by in...

Our page for the new patch contest is now ready for your viewing. There are 9 designs from which you may choose your favorite. There is a poll on the left hand side of the page where you may...

Hey everyone, Below is the link to the page with the patches that Mark received for our contest. At least one person on the SoCal board says she sent in a design that isn't on this page, so Mark...

Remember, today is the last day to send in your patch designs, so if you've been putting it off, it's now or never!

Hey all. I'm off to pull our Animal Farm series to recarve (on better material), replant (in a different park), and reclue. It wasn't getting the traffic we wanted it to, and that's partly due to...

This looks like a one day event, for Valentine's Day: http://avantgame.blogspot.com/2007/02/free-candy-game-you-must-play- with-me.html http://www.flickr.com/photos/35784134@N00/ and if you...

It's been brought to my attention that some people may be avoiding entering patch designs because of the intimidation of having their work published on the Pepe's well-known blog, so if those fears...

I went ahead and planted Year of the Pig today since I will be out of town on the 18th, when it is the official Lunar New Year. He (she?) turned out quite nicely. Since this is an add-on to an...

The deadline for submitting a design for the California letterboxing patch has been extended. Designs are now due by Sunday, February 18th. I hope we'll see a few more entries with this added...

If you are out there, please contact me! I got the LBNA message that you have found Go Dragons, and I have thought that that box was missing (and even listed it as such on AQ). Please email me...

Robb and I picked up one of the 4 of a Kind series in a lovely little park in Lafayette yesterday (thanks 3catfam for the suggestion). I'm happy to hear that the Grumpy Grinch duo may be out...

Grumpy and I are now settled into our new home in San Jose and hope to return to the letterboxing life again soon. While we were moving in we used some of the plastic utensils, plates and cups we...

Robb and I went out today in the rain, and scooped up the totally awesome Junk Yard Dog and Shipyard Shirley. Thanks to Kathy and to Cara and Hunter for creating and planting these really excellent...

Nils, you forgot to mention which word you got form "Word to the wise". I thoroughly enjoyed myself with Lea, NIls and Renee. Unfortunaltey duty called so I was unable to accompany them on all...

Renee pretty much covered it. One thing she did neglect to mention was the key piece of information we learned about CarBoxing: be careful where you stamp when you're the driver. Since Dos Piedras...
