a newbie who made a big boo-boo

From: (StDebb@aol.com) | Date: 2003-08-16 13:07:21 UTC-04:00
Hi! This'll be part introduction, part apology, and part plea for help!

I'm Debbie, and I'm brand new to letterboxing. I learned about it two weeks
ago, right before I left on vacation, so I spent my vacation time finding
letterboxes all along the route. I was doing great right up to the ninth one I
found, and the last one on the way home.

This morning, I went to find another one, right here at home, and I
discovered I still have the stamp from the Celebration Letterbox in Orlando in my bag!
I feel just terrible! That's the apology part. I'm SO sorry!

I'm not due to be in Orlando again until October, which brings me to the plea
for help. Is there any kind letterboxer out there who lives in the Orlando
area who would allow me to mail them the stamp, and who would be so good as to
put it back for me???? I'd be so grateful!

Debbie, who's not USUALLY that scatterbrained!

Debbie, Don't feel too badly about it; most of us have almost done
it - and worry about doing it. Just set it right the best you can.
And go on enjoying this great activity !

A know someone who is going to that area in November to letterbox.
She could replace it then for you if you wnated to mail it to me.
Or maybe someones going sooner..
