I would love to do an exchange. And it would make for a good excuse
to get to S.F. sometime.

Yeah that boots are fab! A bit hard to run in but then even trainers
are a challenge for me. The boots were left in the UK, btw, to dry
off. Wasn't too keen on packing them, you know?

How long have you been letterboxing? I see this as a lifelong
adventure. I'm just surprised it took me so long to hear about it.

Hope to meet some time so you can share your adventures.

Cheers!
