I am VERY EXCITED to offer this series! It has been great practice
for me to get out there and plant more boxes (my first box
disappearing so quickly kinda put a damper on that "planting part"
of my soul!). I've also tried to use several different "elements"
including a micro-box, a piggy-back box, a hitchhiker, etc. I've
tried to make the boxes easy to find, but did want to try writing a
few more cryptic clues. The stamps are all very lovely (thanks to
much help from NorthStars family...I just KNEW I was gonna be glad
that I introduced them to lboxing!).
And...my kiddos are just DYING to start giving away boxes of Girl
Scout cookies! (My daughter's goal this year is to sell 1,000 boxes
of cookies and use her Cookie Credits to go to Brownie Camp this
summer for a whole entire week without her mother! Imagine that!)
We will also have more cookies available for you to purchase if you
are interested...our council charges $3.00 per box. :-)
If you come down to complete the series, please consider hiding a
box in our area. I know that we would be happy to "adopt" or help
you maintain any boxes in our neck of the woods.
Thanks, Batty B of the BusyBeesFamily (in Texas)

Not sure what you consider a "bonus box", but I consider a piggy-
back box to be a letterbox where the clues are hidden inside another
letterbox. So...in order to find the piggy-back box...you have to
find the first box! As for a "bonus box", I consider that just an
extra box that you receive clues to if you complete all the
necessary requirements, such as collecting all eight of the cookie
box stamps. For the Cookie Caper series, the bonus box will be at
my house...where you will come to claim your free box of cookies. I
hope this is not too confusing...I don't even remember where/how
I "defined" these elements. Perhaps from Silent Doug's website?
What do you consider a "bonus box"?

I use "bonus box" basically the same way you use "piggy-back" box.
Sometimes, there are also clues to "bonus boxes" (whatever that means!)
hidden in clues to the main box and you either pick up on them as clues
to a bonus box or you don't and hence you miss the extra box. I guess,
basically, I use the phrase "bonus box" anytime I am expecting x number
of boxes somewhere and there turn out to be x+1 boxes there
instead!!!!!!!!!! :-)

Oooooooooooohhhh! I like the idea of clues hidden WITHIN the clues
to get a "bonus" box. I'm getting some ideas for my next series...
