My dear Miss Priss, I do so hate to air dirty laundry for all to see. However, my private message to you came back "undeliverable". Hence, we must clear the air in this most public of forums....

Awwww...c'mon Ryan. We've been so good on the list lately. Can't we turn into an unruly mob just for a little while? H&H --- rscarpen wrote: > I'm not sure what the big deal is charging $5 for...

There's a new series in Manchester, CT. :) Check it out on the LBNA site... it's really groovy! And if you go, take the clues to the Nevermore series with you, since it's literally across the...

When we put out "Honor Liberty" on 9/11/2002 we included information with it indicating that the PRESENT location should be posted on the chat list. This did occur with many letterboxers posting info...

Poor W.W.! What a painful experience! Thanks for posting the warning- yellow jackets nest in the ground so some other unsuspecting soul could easily trod upon the nest. Perhaps the placer could...

Many thanks to all the posters on this subject. When new at letterboxing, I went to a gathering or 2 and was guilty of stamping into the h.h.ers there, counting them as a separate category...

I tried to post this yesterday from work, but I don't see it anywhere, so if it eventually shows up, I apologize in advance for the double post. I could hardly believe my ears when I heard on the...

I went to Hopkinton State Park today to do a maintenance check on Marathon (it's just fine) and to hunt for Danielle's 15th and the Homer Series, since they were planted while I was in RI this...

Early in the spring, I went to get Cry Baby in Hopkinton, MA only to discover the ENTIRE wildlife sanctuary was under water. Seriously. I notified the placer, who updated the clues to reflect...

I found the Snowbird letterbox last year. If this is your box please let me know. It's clues are no longer on the LBNA website. Wanted to take some friends & wondering if you pulled it. Thanks...

When I first started letterboxing, I carefully read everything in the LbNA FAQs to learn about this wonderful hobby, including hitch hikers......

You may come by foot or by the large smelly vehicle used by the white man. Should you choose to come by horse you will find a stable for your noble steed...

Wishing you all a GREAT trip to Dartmoor and London - hope it's a safe and fun-filled adventure! Pack those wellies, and make sure you take time out for at least one Ploughman's Lunch at the local...

Hi NYC boxers: The Dartmoor traveling Baker's Dozen will be in the main lounge area next to the British Airways main check in at JFK from approx. 3pm to 4:45pm on Friday, September 17. We hope that...

Oh, I know just how you feel. My first stamp (Fish Out of Water, before it earned the suffix "1") was of a pair of dolphins. I felt bad leaving it all vulnerable and alone and when it disappeared a...

So I'm on Yahoo reading about Ivan, because even though I called my friends last night...they probably won't evacuate...stubborn Cajuns...anyway...so I'm reading about what a nearly direct hit could...

I agree - 5 clues, 5 boxes. Have fun and just get out there & box!!! Mark Pepe http://markandsuepepe.blogspot.com/ -------------- Original message -------------- mlcigna@yahoo.com...

What's the group's consensus on counting finds for a box which keeps its name and location, but periodically changes its stamp? The box I refer to specifically is the Good Eats...

About the message in a bottle--- I've been away from home and missed the thread until now, and the TV interview. Can someone tell us what the message in the bottle said ? I'm dying of curiosity!! ...

For all of those in the path of Hurricane Ivan-stay safe & you will be in my thoughts & prayers. From someone in Tampa who feels fortunate, but feels sad knowing others will have to take the...

Sunday I revisited this box at Great Camp Sagamore almost a year after finding it the first time. In September of last year I was there for a week beginning a restoration project on a canoe that I...

I pulled all my boxes for the hurricane and those who gave me permission. As long as the land marks are still there they should be back this weekend. BOXDN Steve

The Lake Daniel Letterbox in Greensboro NC has been reported to me as missing. Please be aware of this if you are in the area and plan to look for it. I will try to get out there and confirm this...

Hello, I received an e-mail from a friend who said he found a letterbox logbook while geocaching. The Logbook was not with its container and may have "wash ashore." The book was found at the...
