It was a lovely afternoon and John and I headed out to Oxbow Park. We had already gotten Kara's Oxbow #1 letterbox ages ago, and, of course, her Oxbow #2 is missing. Funhog had placed the...

I think HH's and cuckoo clues are a bit different than a permanent set of clues. By nature, HH's and cuckoo clues are in one place only for a short time, so it is very likely that the box owner...

I agree www.enature.com is one of the best on line resources for plants trees birds and all sorts of critters. If the plant is a non- native you might have some challenge. Google searches often...

Due to flooding on the Rappahanock River, I've had to pull Dead Snellings and Weeds for a bit......as it is, the high water has changed the landscape around the box enough that it took me a good 30...
