OH - Cental Ohio boxing report

From: Bigguy (bigguy9210@yahoo.com) | Date: 2004-06-13 18:14:24 UTC
We made a late afternoon jaunt up to Lockville yesterday and were
pleased to be first finders of 3 new letterboxes there. There's a
charming little park off the beaten path in a tiny old canal village
where 3 of the old lock chambers of the Ohio & Erie canal are located.
There's also a covered bridge that was moved to the park from another
location. There are also about 10 billion ravenous mosquitos if you
get there at dusk! Remember the bug repellant! We found the
"Ohio-Erie Canal Locks 11,12,13" boxes (there are 2) and the "Hartman
II - Built Funk Tough" box with no problem except that it's very hard
to stamp in while swatting mosquitos with both hands. Nice stamps and
a lovely little park we'd probably never have found otherwise. It's
what 'boxing is all about! We also inadvertently found a geocache
while looking for the boxes - a little bonus! Hope you all are having
fun too!
