Webmasters & all LBrs: Bonsai LB

From: Warrior Woman (warrioringilead@yahoo.com) | Date: 2003-10-20 19:08:10 UTC
This letterbox doesn't have "contact placer" info for it, so I'll
post the information here.

I went out to visit an old friend that I had found before - Bonsai.
The Maplines were there just before me and can testify to the
condition of the box.

Suffice to say, after I re-found it today, I put it in a brand new
watertight container, dried out the wet logbook as best as possible
(many stamp images have been lost), put it in a new ziplock baggie,
put the stamp in a separate ziplock baggie, and put both smaller
baggies into one big one. The standard issue "What is Letterboxing"
sheet was really moldy, so I removed it.

Would the next person who goes out to box Bonsai please bring the
standard issue "What is Letterboxing" page for the box, as well as a
black inkpad. Currently there is no inkpad for this box. I can only
carry so many emergency supplies in my pack at one time!

Thanks!

Oh, I forgot to mention this.

Do you want me to adopt this one? I don't know how to get in touch
with the placer, and it obviously isn't being maintained. It's close
to me, so it wouldn't be a hassle.

Yes this box was wet and we dried it up as best as we
could. We didnt have many suppleys that day. It is
getting wet faster then anyone can do things to it.

I have officially been named the "maintainer" by the webmaster. I
will add it to the list of letterboxes that I have adopted and will
keep it in good shape.

It is now clean and relatively dry, properly packaged, and I'll scoot
out and add a black inkpad to it.
