welcome to the obsession. yes a single, divorced, middle-aged woman can
find happiness in letterboxing. even tho i have a family, and we do box
together, i often go alone. just be careful where you are going. you could
also see if there is any letterboxers in the new york city area that would
love to have company. must be one or two out there somewhere as i have
noticed there is plantings in manhattan, the bronx, and new york city. good
luck. and if you ever get to new hampshire you can look me up.........

I'm single and tend to go alone or with my nieces and nephews,
hiking/biking buddies, etc. My work is almost entirely in front of
or on the phone with people and my involvement in theater & church
kinda piles that face time on even more so I found I was often taking
hikes intentionally to be alone. When I heard about letterboxing from
an NPR piece, I slowly added letterboxing to my hikes.

I guess I never officially introduced myself either... so if we
offend we do so unintentionally.

Welcome!

offended anyone by not introducing myself. I didn't mean to not do
it. I just lurked a few times and then posted.

the "virus" was supposed to have been intercepted, I doubt if it
would make any difference if I know what a virus is or not, which I
do.

on Monday.....last minute of course and had a great time. I have
placed a couple in my home state of Texas while on a trip back home.
I want to place some here in the city but it is just so hard to come
up with safe places. Or at least it seems that way to me. Central
Park seems so obvious, you know? But I need to get off my rear and
get on the letterboxing ball.
