And twice??? Did you do those hills twice? Yes Kel, we did them twice!! Since it was so easy coming down through Planet Walk (even in the dark)compared to going up Gray Pine the first time, we...

Hi, I made the rounds of the Folsom Kids' Park boxes today & the books had what I felt were inappropriate messages in them. Based on the handwritting, it looked like a junior high aged kid...

Hi Tonny, We went with a company called Monterey Bay Whale Watch. They were particularly recommended cause they have a real naturalist on board. Their info is: Monterey Bay Whale Watch Monterey Bay...

Hi Mim, While we didn't succeed (I don't think), we had fun sending a little "article" our son wrote to one of our local homeschooling groups' newsletter (we homeschool). He wrote about his...

Kel, Glad to hear you and your mom made the loop and did so with daylight leftover (or so it seems so). Sorry about Pluto and the missing stamp, next time I am up that way I will make a stamp...

I had the new edition--looked all around the tree. I found a suitable niche or two, but they were empty. Just because I didn't find it doesn't mean it's not there! But I did look pretty...

Hi all-- I started out the week at the SF Int'l Gift Fair, buying for our businesses, but I also found Boku books and ordered a bunch of very cool journals for us! I will be bringing them to the GRR....

This may be a stupid question, but would there possibly be any letterboxes in Tijuana or any of the other 'south of the border' towns? I know the conditions aren't the greatest down there for...

Sorry, but I always think of Brian as "Mr. Tara" so maybe that should be his trail name? Or how about The Green Marine in homage to the Tortuga. Have the day off for once today and am planning to...

Hi Carole, I did plant MAgnificent GLow associated with Rock, but no others yet. Definitely don't go after that one...it is steeper than Planet Walk (but just as beautiful) and not worth a...

I have been enjoying the catalog from American Science and Surplus for years now. Whoever writes the copy has a great turn of phrase. They also have some interesting letterbox...

Hi, With the help of Da Kool Kats, I've finally found a temporary source for the Milan Classic (Silent Dougerware) containers & an airtight container from Korea that looks incredible I posted...

Mim, didn't I see a post sometime back, that you may be adding others to Rock Repose, if so, "us old, Kool Kats" will wait so we don't have to make the trek more than once. smile. If it's not...

... > his boxes will be very "green turtle"-ish, in that he swears they > will all be either ten mile hikes .... > Tara I suggest that if he enjoys long hikes to hunt for the boxes hidden on...

Hi, I asked this in the Newboxers group a few weeks ago, but didn't get much of an answer. Has anyone read Ryan Carpenter's Letterboxing book? I'm curious if it has any information beyond what...

Along the line of trail names and such, I want to give notice that Da Kool Kats are changing our stamp. We, or should I say I, was not pleased with the way the cat stamp turned out and since we...

Patience is not my forte...and having to replace my printer cartidge frequently is not fun either....so I almost never print the page as it appears on the LBNA website. If I am going boxing, I...

My husband told me that he wants to start letterboxing with me!! I can't believe it, I've been trying to get him interested for MONTHS. He says he might even carve a stamp and start hiding...

I've converted someone to letterboxing! :P I took a new friend letterboxing for the first time yesterday, and now she wants to go again next weekend! Hooray :) Even better, both hunts we went on,...

Hi folks, We're heading out to Monterey from Oakland to do some whale watching on a boat, visit the aquarium, and hopefully - hike and letterbox! We only have two days for the whole thing, so we're...

We are starting our 6th week of our 9 week trip away from California and we REALLY miss our fellow Northern Ca. boxers and all your wonderful boxes. We are currently in New Hampshire for 4 weeks....

Hi everyone, Redsf, SFmomo and Scott had our most successful LBing weekend. Ususally we are not so organized, but this weekend we found 13 boxes total and one HH (that is good for us!). Saturday...

There will be a 2nd official Shollenberger Park (Petaluma) LB later this week. I'll be posting the clues just after planting on the same page as Shollenberger Park Box 1. Moon Rabbit

Hi all--I just want to put in a good word for Avery's Pond Lb. It has a great walk, a lovely stamp, and hasn't been visited nearly as often as it deserves. In honor of da Kool Kats, I found it in the...
