Florida Letterboxes

From: Denise (isagobi@gate.net) | Date: 2001-05-26 17:39:33 UTC-04:00
My daughter-in-law & I have just got hooked!  We found the boxes in Brevard, Orange, Hillsborough & Manatee Counties, but the one at Fort DeSoto Park in Pinellas County is missing, I believe.  It was planted in a very busy picnic area and we couldn't find.  Several people asked us what we were doing, it was so public.  We ran out of time for the Pasco County box, but will get that soon since it is near my home.
 
Wish there were some in north FL since I get to Tallahassee a lot.  Hope to be planting some boxes soon!

Well, it's a long way from Tallahassee, but we just planted a north FL letterbox in Duval County (Jacksonville, for those of you not from Florida).

My daughter-in-law & I have just got hooked! We found the boxes in
Brevard, Orange, Hillsborough & Manatee Counties, but the one at Fort
DeSoto Park in Pinellas County is missing, I believe. It was planted
in a very busy picnic area and we couldn't find. Several people
asked us what we were doing, it was so public. We ran out of time
for the Pasco County box, but will get that soon since it is near my
home.

Too bad about the Pinellas County box. I think it was planted by
someone from out of state so it may not be possible to easily verify
it's disappearance for sure. I was planning on heading over there to
look pretty soon, but maybe I'll try elsewhere now that there are
finally a few other boxes in Florida besides my own. Looking forward
to more in the future!

Great!  Thanks for planting a new one.  I hope to get there sometime this summer.
 
Eric Ming's are great - glad I saved you a trip to Fort DeSoto, Eric.  I will get to yours in the Everglades hopefully later this summer.

Denise.....   I stamped into the Fort Dosoto box on Easter Sunday and I feel like it was far enough off the trail not to be stumbled upon. I wonder if you were in the right place????   Maybe you better head south to my 5 boxes in Ft. Myers area....  Have fun and good luck
