Nisa,

To get your clues up on the Letterbox USA page, just send them to Dan

elf@pclink.com

along with other relavant info, e.g. directions to the site,
interesting background details, and gif images of the stamp and of a
local map, if you have these.

Quite a few of us are using the Tiger Map site on the web to create
maps. I didn't know anything about this a few months ago when I got
started, but Erik pointed me towards it. I'd be glad to help you with
this off-line if you'd like.

Danielle,

My box is going out tomorrow! So, I don't have the clues up yet - I'm
still wondering if I should purchase a book or make one for the
box...whoops, just measured my big Staedtler eraser-carved stamp against
my book template and the book would be too small for the big erasers, so
I guess I'm purchasing a book on our way to the park tomorrow. The box
will be hidden in Shieling Forest (I spelled it "s-h-e-i-l-i-n-g" on my
stamp - ugh! At least I didn't carve it backwards like I did another
word stamp a couple of weeks ago!) in Peterborough, NH. It should be up
no later than noon tomorrow and I'll email the details.

BTW, how do I get my clues up on the L-USA website?

Nisa:
Congtats on another state represented on the Letterbox page.
As for the spelling, well..it happens..
I've heard that the rug weavers in the mid-east always intentionally
weave into their work a hidden imperfection, as a humble statement that,
only Allah is perfection.

And, of course, the most collectable of postage stamps are those
imperfectally-imprinted ones, like, airplanes flying upside down.
Perhaps next year you'll replace it, correctly spelled? If so, I hope
I've had a chance to get there first and get the very collectable one!

BTW, I'd be happy to scan an impression for you, ifyou want to put an
image of it in the clue page. Just send me an impression of it and I'll
e-mail it back (and/or send it to Dan).

BTW, also (for the rest of you), if Prayer Rock was the first in the US,
Nisa and hubby were the first to find one in the US!

Erik
