I definitely vote for SLO in October if we have a better chance of getting Amanda, Ryan and Pandora. Is October 4th too early? ~~Doublesaj & Old Blue~~ P6 F22 V5 A10 HH1 [Non-text portions of...

I tried to email you and let you know that we found your boxes and share with you the great time we had, but the email listed on the slip in the box - jamnjelly03@yahoo.com bounces back.

I got your email for Heron but have lost it and didn't forward it on to him. I told him about it. He was not upset and thought that everything was fine. He had a great time and was happy to go...

My two cents is that we should wait and talk with Ryan and Amanda from Seattle and see when they could make a gathering in the SLO area. I think the SLO area is a grand idea for a gather. Now if...

Hooray!!! I am so glad to see this new guide come out and I will definitly be adopting it myself. Just as and added note let me say this to those that wanted to get all bent out of shape that I...

We found our first HH today on our travels. We actually didn't expect to find one as we only do about four boxes a week on average, all within a 30 mile radius of our home. We didn't know that...

What happened to your perfect square? You're shirking in your P count! Come on you've got 11 to go! :-) Psychomommy (who's trying hard to get my X above my P & F) P30 F129 -F2 X102 V3...

Please add me to the list of those who would be interested in getting the letterbox by mail. This is, like, the lazy letterboxers dream come true!!!!!!!!! Deanne, the lazy letterboxer [Non-text...

This is one of my pet peeves, so I have to add my own two cents on the issue of cleaning stamps. Yes, of course you should *always* clean the ink off a stamp before you replace it in a letterbox....

I had hoped against hope, but the reported missing Cherry Creek Letterbox is indeed missing (along with the hitchhiker that was inside it). Franzsolo and I had chatted by email and I told him I'd...

Geocaching.com has a rating system where planters can rate their caches on a 1 to 5 scale for both terrain and the overall difficulty. This gives you some insight before you decide to go off...

I came across this article from the Pioneer Press (Twin Cities, MN) about parks in MN & WI that are banning geocaching. It has some relevance to letterboxing, I...

I do understand that the Southern CA region is a long way away from San Luis Obispo county. It would be great to attend a boxing festival down in your neck of the woods, too. I would like to attend...

A short time back, I mentioned my son is working on letterboxing as a 4-H project and, in large part, is trying to make the hobby more accessible to physically and mentally challenged youths. Part of...

We've gotten a lot of interest about a gathering in CA and I'm stoked!! It looks like we're going to need 2 gatherings though; one in the San Francisco Bay Area (which I would coordinate along with...

Hi all. Sorry for another change. Popular opinion seems to be pointing to a rather poorly written set of clues. My apologies to all who have tried and been frustrated. After walking out there a...

Hello everyone....I found the "Honda Road Again" hitchhiker yesterday! It was fun reading about the origin of this one and seeing where the little Honda had been! She will be on the road again...

The Marblehead Lighthouse letterbox was indeed missing and has been replaced. It looks like a very large tree limb fell in the area of the box. This may have left it exposed and I am thinking it...

Dear Pandy -- Let us add our sympathy and hopes for your speedy recovery! We've caught "the fever" too and kept going on in search of a box as it was getting dark and cold! That was our infamous...
