Letterboxing Northern California - Yahoo Groups Archive

oh also, I'm in heaven! I found a pack of 24 1-inch square stamp pads in a rainbow of colors, including silver and gold, at Craft Market (used to be Ben Franklin Crafts) in Carson City. Woo hoo!!!!...

I second Cellissimo's sentiment....a few beautifully sunny dry hours today and I had to work! And now that I have free time it is dark and pouring rain! I guess I should work on stamp carving...

Found the park & the my 1st 2 boxes during lunch. The weather was nice enough to wait to rain until I was finishing up with the 2nd box. If you're having trouble finding the park, do a Google...

Valor & I headed out Monday A.M. to the coast. Rained all day. Found: Bodega Bay Deers of West Dartmoor-this one was great, just like being on the moors. Rain, fog and cows! Then headed north on...

Hi, I just found out about letterboxing today & am very intrigued. I've heard about geocaching before but always thought using a GPS was cheating. Letterboxing seems so much more civilized. ...

I am feeling well enough to want to resume searching for letterboxes, but the rain has put a damper on that activity. I console myself with carving new stamps. :-) Grumpy and I are about to...

I was SO BUMMED that it rained all day yesterday - I had great plans to go north and letterbox all day long. Am hoping the weather will clear by Friday for another attempt. I have my wine country...

Well it has been over 6 weeks since we have gone Letterboxing or Geocahing and I am getting antsy. Soooooooo I decided to take a little trip to Auburn for the Lemony Snicket. But....... I can't...

This is a heads up for Princess Lea especially, whom I suspect may be heading north to plant a box of her own for Wine Coutry Challenge, and the Alien Explorers who are after more aliens. 3 More...

Hi All, My apologies for getting carried away boxing with Mim and showing up so late! It was a wonderful afternoon--well worth the roundtrip. I really enjoyed meeting everyone, exchanging stamps &...

The following was on the Today Show this a.m. Thought it might interest some of the letterboxers because it is similar and letterboxers are good at solving clues. I'm sure you would have to be...

Hmmm. I guess I have never taken the time to count my PF and X's. Hopefully I can count better than I type, looking over my last posts I am embarrassed! If only I had paid more attention in...

I just realized that I sent this message only to Mimulus, but I really meant for it to go to the whole list: Thanks again to Blackbird for the facilities yesterday - they were just perfect for the...

I was messing around with my statistics and realized that after numbering all the exchanges I got yesterday, I am just 1 short of an even 500 for my PFX count! Guess I better get out there and hit...

Thanks to the helpful advice of Blackbird, I see their is a mistake in the BIrds #2 clues (The first letter of licnese plate, not the second). It has been fised on teh website, but if print out...

Saturday, we were headed to Santa Rosa for a family visit and tried to get as many boxes along the way as possible. We started in Glen Ellen and was able to get: Brine Country by Mimulus Rock...

Our letterboxing weekend extravaganza was cut short by a mean old cold germ. Grinch is fairly green about the gills - partly from the cold and partly from envy of all of you who were well enough...

Grumpy Grinch has dedicated this weekend to letterboxing. Friday we found 5 boxes on the SF Peninsula. Where's Waldo was intact but the contents were soaked. We were unable to stamp the logbook...

Hi all, My mom has graciously (finally!) replanted Healdsburg Quartet #1 in a new location. Clues are on the LbNA site. Healdsburg is all dressed up for Christmas & has an ongoing schedule of...

Hi Princes Lea, WE nabbed Fort Funston on our way down to Santa Cruz the day after Thanksgiving. Alive and well. Mim

Hi Princess Lea, I sent you private mail at your alamedanet address, and am wondering if you received it? Regarding pirates...Good luck with your hunt on Saturday. I'm really sorry to miss everyone...
