Kia ora form New Zealand! We are having a great time being tourists, but not much LBing action. Only found one box so far, but not that many boxes to find in the whole country so not...

Paul -- can you tell me what type of adhesive you used to glue the backing on your Day of the Dead stamp? Thanks again for inviting us to this fun event! We really enjoyed spending time with you. ...

Yes! It sure was a great and fun evening! I had a blast seeing lisascenic again (the last time being at my family's place in NY this summer). I also met Robb, who is a fun, outgoing guy, and an...

Oh, you guys missed a ggod time tonight! We met up with Paul at the site of his Day of the Dead stamp. The location was super-cool, the owners of this spot very nice. AND PAUL'S STAMP WILL ROCK...

Here's another example of how letterboxers (particularly LbNCA ones) are the nicest people in the world. Today I thought I'd go plant a box a bit south of home... Reached into my bag of boxes...

I always think to make use of my stamps *after* I plant them. But I think I'm going to make some cards out of the dolphin stamp. I'm such a ninny that I forgot to make an impression of my Sandhill...

If anyone is using Fimo or Sculpey with any regularity, I would highly recommend buying a toaster oven, and reserving that oven for craft use only. It turns out that these types of clays release...

I'm now carving Boreas, the North Wind, which completes the 4 wind carving assignment required for me to graduate from the Greek Wind God Carving School with a major in Wings and Drapery Folds. ...

Join in a festive Day of the Dead celebration this Wednesday, from 6 PM to 8 PM at the location of my 'Dia de los Muertros' box. I'll be there, and it'd be great to see you. Link to...

I wonder.... what if you ran your stamping surface over some fine sandpaper? Lay the sandpaper on a table, scratchy side up, and "skate" your stamp over that surface. You might "break up the...

Greetings all! This is my first post, but I have been in the background listening... While I admire all you great stamp-carvers, I have to admit a bit of jealousy. You see, I consider myself to...

Now that you have generously answered my ignorant questions about the locations of letterboxes around Big Sur, I'm going to ask another... Where *should* there be a letterbox? I've got a great...

Black Cavalier had such a good idea so I'm going to take him up on it. I will have a letterbox only available at the Haunted Castle in Lincoln California see previous post for directions. This...

Hi Everybody Just wanted to invite all of you to our annual Haunted Castle 11 rooms & 3 tunnels of pure horror McBean Park, Lincoln, California (Between Roseville and Yuba City) Open each night...

Someone on a murals discussion forum turned me onto this. http://www.makezine.com/blog/archive/2005/10/diy_gps_tracking_with_molo gogo.html Sounds interesting! Lisascenic

Since I'm not planning on planting this stamp in California, and since I'm so pleased with how it turned out, I've uploaded a picture to the Yahoo website. If you care to look, go to the main page,...

We have been asked to list the boxes we found and missed while on our trip to So. Cal. It is pretty long so I didn't automatically post it here. It will be on the Southern Cal. board, for anyone...

We drove past the site of our new box near Suisun City yesterday. The Western Railway Museum parking area was packed with cars. Check out the link to their...

I was excited to see that artTrekker had dropped her extra Hawaii boxes off at the Sacramento zoo. I am off today (Monday) & had been wanting to take my daughter to the zoo for a while. I was there...

And now for something different... this box came out of nowhere, and pushed and shoved its way to the top of my work plan list. It's called, "First Job, Last Worker", and challenges you to figure...
