Colleen,

Not to sound like a big wimp, but with the cold temps expected tomorrow and a young letterbower in tow, can you tell me which if any of these boxes might be shorter length walks?  (I know the new H is for Heron box is one...) I couldn't really tell much from reading the clues, although I haven't checked them all. 

We did accomplish some chilly boxing on the Eastern Shore in November, but Little Frog has much less patience in this weather.  Oh, excuse me...make that "Big Brother Frog"....now that he has turned a mature 5 years old and is expecting a sibling, he feels he has outgrown the name "Little Frog."  DC friends, please take note.

Thanks for any extra info, and for planning this gathering tomorrow.  We have been eagerly awaiting the day!!!!!!!!!

At the request of a few people, I am posting this list of letterboxes that are in or nearby to Columbia.  That way, you all can go boxing after the gathering!  Please feel free to contact me off list if you need any help.  Please print up the clues and bring them with you to the gathering.  I can probably help you get from Clyde's to the various boxes, but once there, you are on your own!  Also, if I have missed any boxes - please let me know!

Right now the head count is 37!  Should be a lot of fun, looking forward to meeting everyone!
