Jay,
Thanks for the 3 new letterboxes at the Leyard Oak. We went out today
in 18 degrees and found them. I never knew there were hiking trails there.
It was a nice little walk, perfect for getting out in the fresh air for a
little while. We were the second visitors to find all three boxes! Keep up
the great work, can't wait to see the state's largest sycamore.

Thanks, Melissa! We didn't know there were any trails there either.
We've been meaning to go see (and box) the Ledyard Oak for quite
awhile, and were delighted to find a trail system just waiting for
us. So we planted the box we had ready and then scurried back to the
workbench to carve a couple more. BL (Before Letterboxing) we used to
hike the same 3 or 4 trails over and over again. Now we're starting
to feel like real local trail experts!
I just love the Joshua's Tract trailguide. We got our copy at the
library (if your local library doesn't have one, they'll be glad to
get you an inter-library loan). We just ran it through the
photocopier, which was a piece of cake since it's so short. I've seen
it in the CT Dept of Environmental Management catalog at
http://www.dep.state.ct.us/
which also is where we got our guide to CT's "notable trees."

We can't wait to try out our new snowshoes! Thought we would have to head
up north to use them. But maybe not!!!
