So Diane and I were in Quebec City looking for Poutine - the letterbox, not the yummy side-dish - and found the box intact, but the stamp was missing! Bummer! I sort of carved almost a similar...

Since we do not want our boxes to, in any way, be mistaken for geocaches, I think we shall stick with the Signed Limited edition prints in our boxes. I've also started making wooden jigsaw puzzles...

This is a great idea. My favorite boxes are always the Russ Clan boxes. The newspaper down here (I believe, it was a while ago)wrote of them and that's how we were introduced to letterboxing. They...

Hi boxers: I have stood by and watched these personal attacks on innocent and good people. This is NOT letterboxing or the intent of this list. There was a time when new boxers could LEARN from...

Let me just say that I do not condone any "TUDES" (aka Attitudes) promoted or expressed on this list. But from the new guy perspective, everyone needs to learn to handle people with attitudes, a...

Gentle Readers, In the words of Rodney King, "Why can't we all just get along?" This summer, while hot on the trail of our first find, my little "herd" and I came across another group of 'boxers...

Hi all, As many other non aggressive letterboxers have recently, I too am leaving the list. After 4+ Digests a day of constant name calling, complaining and down right nastiness, I've decided...

Cool Dog was getting a little "too cool" up on the windy hill in Crandall Park, Tolland, CT. I have removed his letterbox doggie house and he will return to a different location shortly. Please...

I was wondering if there's a map online of all thirty CT State Forest locations? On the DEP site, it only has 15 of them on the map. What did you guys do with the others? :) Thanks for your help...

I just got through reading Randy Hall's book "Letterboxer's Companion" and thought it was well written and informative. In fact, it was such a good introduction to our hobby that I thought it could...

I called it 'Whatever's as I'm not sure what to call them, Prize? Award? What do you folks use for the first finders of your boxes? What things do you place in them?? I've very, very interested in...

Hi Folks! Finally got around to posting a new microbox series. It is my first web based clue attempt - be gentle! I do hope you'll enjoy it. The clues are designed so that you can print them and...

Wow we turned on our computer, checked our email and had to call the fire dept. Every little plug in hole was spewing lava and fire was shooting out of the seams. This data base debate was very...

Some of our best city letterboxes should be done at night. We do not encourage folks to go hunting at night but finders should be able to figure out what their limitations are without the information...

Hello all, I was just wondering if anyone could tell me where hart park is here in CT?

Anyone who enjoys a mild challenge, and doesn't mind traveling a bit should get out to do this series. We had lots of fun and finished today. We went totally out of order, finishing with 5 golden...
