NEW BOX PREVIEW! (and FIRST FIND CONTEST!)

All right, folks!

Here's something I haven't seen done before: a PREVIEW of a new
letterbox.

Ready? Cool! Here goes:

Tomorrow (Sunday, Oct 3), just after high noon, we will be planting
our third letterbox. It will be located in Peachtree City, Georgia.

If you want to be in the First Finder Contest, we welcome you to
make an attempt after, say, 2pm. The First Finder will WIN A SPECIAL
PRIZE*!

* I'm serious, folks. It won't be something tooky, either, like a
sticker or a funny email or something. And I'm not going to make you
buy anything. You (and especially your kids, if you have any) will
really enjoy it. All you have to do is: when you stamp in, note the
TIME you arrived. Make a note of my email address, and when you get
home, send me a message that you visited the box. Just describe your
stamp so I can verify it was really you. I'm going to check the
letterbox 24 hours later to verify the winner, and I'll reply to the
winner with instructions on how to claim your prize. I'll tell you
what it is, too!

Now, I can't tell you exactly where the box will be yet, because the
clues are not yet finished. Check back first thing tomorrow morning,
either here or on http://www.letterboxing.org.

You can, however, learn about the "atmosphere" of the letterbox by
visiting these two sites:

Aren't you excited?!
