Clues On LBNA & Atlas Ques

Started by Barefoot Lucy (barefootlucy@gmail.com) | 2 messages | First message: 2007-05-30 | Last message: 2007-05-31
You might want to reread his message, because I don't think he was advocating listing clues on both sites, only commenting on a point of functionality. On 5/30/07, lionsmane63 wrote: > > Hi, >...

Clues On LBNA & Atlas Quest

Started by Silver Eagle (sileagle@alltel.net) | 6 messages | First message: 2007-05-30 | Last message: 2007-05-31
Lately it has come to my attention that some people still think when they post clues to AQ that they automatically get posted to LBNA, and this is not the case. I notice there are many boxes being...

Just stumbled across this post. . . . Tempus Fugit said (in a Dead Lemur thread) "I'm pretty sure Dead Duck Chuck could kick Poison Ivy's ass at cards." Ya, okay. The next event to be...

Extra! Poynter back on the street

Started by Clyde Bentley (clyde.bentley@gmail.com) | 1 message | First message: 2007-05-29
It took me a couple of months and the much-appreciated help of CoolFamily6 in Brandon, but the Poynter Letterbox in St. Petersburg, FL, is back in its unique place. The box is on the grounds of...

Hi folks, I stumbled upon one of, someone's, letterboxes this afternoon while hiking in Glen Helen Park in Yellow springs, Ohio. At first I didn't know what it was. Thought maybe someone left it...

Group question

One of the letter boxes I looked at today said that the only way to obtain a clue was by postal mail. We had to contact the placer by email or by po box, and then they would mail us the clue. ...

I noticed that some of the clues aren't posted on the letterbox website -- the instructions say to email the planter for clues. I wonder why this is? Just wondering! K. Visit me...

hunters and planters

So, just wondering..... which of you who post on this board are also planters of letterboxes? Do you all also plant them or do you just mostly hunt them? Or is the planting an anonymous thing,...

Wow, reading some of these old posts has brought back some fantastic memories, especially my over whelming fondness for dead lemurs and all things lemuresque. The ADG is not dead! We were...

Please stop bagging boxes!

Started by Mountain Scorpia (mountainscorpia@yahoo.com) | 1 message | First message: 2007-05-19
Once again, a well-meaning person has - unbidden - put one of my letterboxes (a Lock 'n' Lock, no less) into a Ziplock baggie. It doesn't always help, and sometimes it even creates or exacerbates...

Box Visitations WAS: BEWARE - northern Illinois

Started by melanie (maiden1974@verizon.net) | 2 messages | First message: 2007-05-19 | Last message: 2007-05-19
my guess would be that you live on the East Coast. Out here on the West Coast, there are many, many boxes that go months without being visited. I think it must be the pioneer spirit that brought many...
