The family and I enjoyed a too quick weekend trip down to eastern
Tennessee this weekend. We viewed the magnificent foliage and found
the Gatlinburg letterbox as a bonus. It was great to get to view so
many signature stamps from folks around the country that we usually
don't cross paths with. Very nice box - dry and in good condition -
and a very nice stamp.

Unfortunately, we didn't have as good a luck with the Smoky Fir box.
Despite very good clues and a thorough search, we were unable to find
any sign of it. We suspect the rangers may have got it. Too bad.
The Park Service needs a more enlightened policy about this. Hope you
all had a good weekend!
