Stamp request for new box!

From: cpascott (seh-letterbox@comcast.net) | Date: 2005-07-07 16:24:37 UTC
Hi all!

The success of partnering with some of you great carvers is exciting,
and I am eagerly developing new boxes to place!

So far two of my four boxes contain stamps carved by others -- Willard
Clock (placed) and The Lady in Black (scheduled be placed in late
August). Many thanks to Choi and Scarab, respectively, for their
magnificent artwork!

I have another box I'd like to place, and thus another call for
someone willing to carve.

The box is entitled "Walden" and will be placed at Walden Pond State
Reservation in Concord. My research on LbNA and AQ has not turned up
a box in this area, so I'm claiming it! (If someone knows of a box
there, please let me know as I wish not to duplicate).

Any stamp dealing with serentity, contemplation, nature,
transcendentalism or, of course, Henry David Thoreau are welcome and
appreciated. As always, carvers are fully credited on both the box's
clues published on my website and listed in LbNA and AQ as well as on
the box and journal itself.

If you're interested, e-mail me -- and thanks in advance!

Not if I get there first! I have a box in the works for
this location....but if you get there first more power to
you! (there can always be two, but you said you had no
wish to duplicate)

Thanks Turtle. There are no boxes listed in Concord in this location.
A bunch at Great Meadows, but none at Walden Pond. It's possible
that the box is listed in the wrong town.

A search of the mystery boxes did turn up a box called Solitude which
could be at Walden Woods, but the link to the clues is broken. I
didn't see any other boxes (by title) that appeared as though they
could be there.

If you know of a box specifically, let me know offline.

Thanks,

CPAScott

LOL, I'll share with you dragonfly!

Apparantly though, per Turtle there's already a box there, but as my
post said, none that I see listed in LbNA.

Anyway ... seeing I can't carve, you'll get there before me I'm sure.
I have to wait for some kind soul to come along and offer to carve
something!


LOL
