What a wonderful sunny and extrememely warm weekend to get out and
about seeking boxes! Mansfield: While following clues to Chuck and
Molly's "Spring heeled Jack" l.b. I met letterboxers Bill and Craig.
The black bag of supplies and intent staring at the huge rock
formation (clue) by the side of the trail gave me away, for sure.
They were just returning from being the very first stampers-
inners! We exchanged stamps and I proceded on to be the second
stamper in at a typically well executed l.b. by Chuck and Molly.
then on to the "Bunyip of Billabong" lb., part of Chuck and Molly's
In Search Of series. What an adorable creature despite his bad
reputation.
East Haddam/Haddam: I finally got to the Drew's "Ct. Yankee" l.b.
smack dab across the river from my hometown of Haddam Neck. Logbook
soaked and full. I dried things out, left blank journal pages and
will mail the logbook to the Drew clan once it finishes drying out on
my radiator. On to a new favorite stamp! "The Grinch in CT." had all
of the finest elements a letterboxer could want: Awesome colorful
stamp, creative poetic clues and a handmade stamp pouch and logbook
to boot. Be sure to vist if at all possible. While at Gilette's
Castle, I met a family of brand new letterboxers stamping in at the
first box of the Drew Clan's "Sherlock's Home" series. They
graciously allowed me to tag along as we hunted down the second in
this series. Both logbooks are chockablock full. We stamped on one
of the sheets someone else placed in the book . Happy letterboxing!
