As is often the case, her Highness the Princess swooped into the city to nab my "Harvey" box and be the First Finder! She's revving up her engine to bag the newest Cabinet boxes, too -- but not for...

There! I just planted the 4th Cabinet of Curiosities box, Raphus cucullatus, and it joins its neighbors Ammonitida, Nudibranchia, and Chelonia... be sure to collect them all for your curiosity...

It might be a good idea to wait for Cabinet box #4 before heading out for #3 (or #2 or #1) if you haven't yet. They're all neighbors, making it convenient for me to monitor + it creates a...

After 3 years of having this box sit idle, I finally found a host for my letterbox -- tribute to Harvey Milk. The box is called, "Harvey", and it's located at the site of Harvey Milk's former camera...

All - I will be traveling to San Francisco for a business trip from November 27th thru December 1st. It appears that I will have at least the afternoon on Tuesday the 27th to do some...

I finally got off my lazy butt and planted the third curiosity object: Chelonia. I haven't uploaded the fancier web page yet, but clues are on...

I am posting the following announcement here, as well as on AQ Events: I am so sorry if this inconveniences anyone that has already signed up for this event, but please note that the date has been...

Hi, since this is a pretty artsy-crafty group, I thought someone might be able to help in my search. Lemax, makers of collectable display town pieces, makes a moss mat that I'm looking for. Here's...

I spent the day (and I'll probably spend the week) working on the oiled wildlife response team for the San Francisco Oil Spill. What an undertaking! The center had almost five hundred birds in care,...

My new favorite youtube dance video (I LOVE it!!!!): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pv5zWaTEVkI Paul, I think you'd really like this one, too: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bav63MWNUKg&NR=1 (maybe...

Here's a letter from a birdwatching group that I'm on. I hope that letterboxers might be able to help out, by looking for oiled...

Have you all read? This is one of the more serious spills the Bay has experienced. http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/c/a/2007/11/09/MNPCT93G5.DTL I've been making calls to find out...

Our Toasty Toes Mystery Letterbox is officially retired. Many thanks to slick kitty for finding and retrieving it for us in the midst of ground clearing and tree-trimming in the area. Freezing...

This exhibit at SF MOMA made me think of Paul's Cabinet of Curiosities theme... http://www.sfmoma.org/exhibitions/exhib_detail.asp?id=264 I have not yet been able to take this in-- anybody see it...

Since we have recently been discussing pumpkin carving, thought you all might enjoy my friend Dave's web site http://www.phrenopolis.com/pumpkins/ I think the cannibal/missionary ones are my...

Paul in SF makes AH-MAY-ZING baloon sculptures, and when I saw the following, it made me think of him, and smile. Enjoy it, won't...

Those of you who missed out on the Pumpkin Carving missed a good time! We collected the most random assortment of people, from grandmas to the groovy haircut and tattoo crowd, with a couple of...

I posted the following on the AQ California Board, but putting it here for everyone to read. Yes, I started this rumbling about a Monterey Gathering at the Am. River Gathering. I am hoping to...

On Saturday October 20th at 2pm, we're going to be carving pumpkins (and consuming a few beers) in the Berkeley Rep scenic studios. Kids are welcome, of course! As we're in the middle of building a...

Back at the American River gathering, I mentioned the idea of having folks over to the Berkeley Rep Scenic Studios for pumpkin carving. And then I got really busy and never said another word about...

This seemed like the starting place for a letterboxing caper: *************************************************************** SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Where's Sam Spade when you need him? Thieves...

I'm too tired to write much now, besides, there's another post ride party to attend, and more champagne to consume, but I wanted to at least share some ride photos with my Letterboxing friends. ...
