Letterboxing USA - Yahoo Groups Archive

Thank you to everyone who entered the discussion about the downside of a database. I now have a much better understanding of the sport and what might spoil a hunt and will always strive not to do...

What got you so angry? [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

Hey Socal LBers, we just posted The Seal Beach Town Tour. This series commemorates our 100th placed stamp. We hope you enjoy the frustrating fun. If you like the hunt you can give us all of the...

I'm sorry, but this is ridiculous. Some very immature person took the time to put 500 entries in the database. Please grow up. If you don't like it, don't go to it.

Greetings, I would like to announce the birth of a new Yahoo Group dedicated to Letterboxing, LbPagans, where we can talk about pagan-themed boxes, stamp ideas, and basically let our hair down....

We just found our first mystery box!! Woohoo!! And I'm keeping it that way......a mystery!! ;) Peppermint Patti (with Bunny Man and Boy George) F10 P1 X2 V6 C8 <--F is finally in the double...

The Maine Event was an incredible success. We were especially impressed with the enthusiasm and creativity of the Mainiacs (is it ok to call you that?) in hiding boxes, carving stamps that go with...

Hey there, I was looking for the link to the Northern California Gathering webpage and I thought some other folks might need to see it again...

I will admit, a HH Database is one thing I do like. I don't think we NEED a database for it when we have Pete and Wanda's incredible list on their webpage. Its very comprehensive and as long as...

I just glanced at this thing, looking only at boxes I placed or had found. Right off the bat, I found one that gave away the hiding place, thus wrecking a well-designed clue. I agree with Jay... I do...

personally, I love the database idea. I have already entered my "finds" from the last week! If someone doesn't like it, they don't have to use it. I disagree that only the placer should post to...

Hi group, I stumbled onto letterboxing by accident over the net. Wow, what a sport! There seems to be something for everyone here. I have not yet gone out boxing as I have to make my personal...

Hi, The very recently planted See Rock City link to the clues doesn't work. Just a heads up. Thanks, Mark

My kids and I were just reading about letterboxing and we have been hooked immediately! We have a couple great ideas about where to stash boxes, and we found out that there are at least four boxes...

Had a wonderful day in Thurmont yesterday! Found the new Bassackwards Letterbox at Cunningham Falls along with a special surprise, MY FIRST HITCHHIKER!!!! YAY ME!!!!! After I scared my...

Per Mary's suggestion - we didn't try Folly Lick boxes. My friends and I found all Dead Authors (Vienna, VA) 5 boxes... We really enjoyed it. Took us 2.5hrs w/o a compass (I forgot it at home)......

Hi all, The weather has been suffocatingly humid in MA lately but Binx and I sweated out the following letterboxes over the weekend, in good shape unless otherwise noted: -Due North -Skug...

Jay, many letterboxers, including me, don't geochache so we don't consider the database to be "geochacing style reporting" with whatever connotations (good or bad) that may have. Many see it as a...

re the yahoogroup database: I really don't like it and have worked for years to keep that kind of geocaching style reporting off the LbNA site. Is there a way to opt out of having our own...

The journals at Ennisbrook are completely full. I'll return as soon as possible to add more pages to the books. If you plan a visit there in the near future, bring some 3X5 paper with you for...

We had the honor of finding 5 of dvn2r ckr's letterboxes on a trip north on I-5 this weekend. (we found 15 total between Willows and Grants Pass, OR) We are happy to report that Damned Shasta,...
