We had a long day of hunting yesterday and are proud to say that we
found 3 boxes! :)
We started with Wolf Box, and ended up walking in circles for about
an hour. The first few clues are a little confusing once you're out
there. The box is in great shape though, and has two log books. A
clue in the second book leads to a beautiful spot. :)
Dance of Joy was next, and very easy to find. It's in great shape,
and has the cutest stamp. ThunderWing (our 12 yr. old) really liked
that one.
Next up was Brandywine Box. The clues are pretty easy to follow and
we found it with no problem. We did have to cross an overgrown field
with stickers in it though. (which we didn't know where there until
we where halfway through the field) SecretAgent (my partner) also had
a close run in with a frisbee! The box is in good shape, but there's
no stamp in it. The box is abandoned (I think) and if I had a spare
stamp with me, I would have put it in there. I may go back sometime
and leave one. There are also a few not so nice notes scribbled in
the log book by what I think were some kids out playing frisbee golf
that happened upon the box. *shakes head in disgust at how
disrespectful some people can be* It was a long hike back to the car
also, but it may just have seemed like it since we were so tired
already. LOL
All in all, it was a nice day though. We're hoping to get up to PA on
Sunday and then possibly down to the shore on Wednesday. I wish there
were more boxes in DE though. Maybe I'll have to plant a few. ;)

If you plant them, they will come!
FYI:
There are some neaby boxes in NJ: Sepawna Meadows and the NJ Maritime
Mystery boxes. We found these boxes on a warm November day. I would
highly recommend using bug spray if you try these in the summer.
Happy hunting,

The Supawna Meadows box has disappeared for a second time and I am
not planning to replace it.

No wonder I couldn't find clues for it anywhere. LOL
I think I figured out where your NJ Maritime Mystery boxes are
though. Now I just have to find time to get to Jersey. :)
I still haven't figured out Serendipity's Sister yet, but I will. I
think you're becoming my arch nemesis or something like that.
I haven't had a chance to find the other two virtual boxes of yours
yet, but I'll get them too. ("I'll get you my pretty, and your little
dog too!") LOL
