FL: Canaveral Marshes Lbox near Orlando

Does anyone have a copy of the Canaveral Marshes stamp image that can
be converted to jpg and sent to me? I know this breaks protocol, but
we're hoping to launch a search and rescue. I'm hoping to carve and
replace the stamp there, since it seems to have gone to pieces.

As seen on LbNA:
Canaveral Marshes Letterbox
Adopted by: DrewFamily
State: Florida
County: Orange
Nearest city: Orlando
Update March 2004: The stamp is badly in need of repair. it is broken
into several pieces and the material seems to be damaged from being
waterlogged. Nice image anyway! The tupperware is slightly cracked
which I think may be why it is so damp.

We'll be in the Orlando area next week. Is there anything we can do
to help maintain this box? We'd even be willing to carve a
replacement stamp if you think it's necessary (would need a jpg of
the image, tho.)

We regularly bring a repair kit containing a "fresh" box, baggies,
pens, and paper wherever we go letterboxing anyway. It wouldn't be
much trouble for us.

Write soon; we leave Saturday morning.

Thanx,
Red

Awesome! I'm sorry to say that I don't have any idea how those boxes
are doing. We just adopted the clues when the site changed over last
year because the planter, Dr. Mings, was such a great guy way back
when in the early days. Let me know what you decide! J in CT
