That's it :-)

Didn't think to look there; I rarely do. Thanks for the reminder!

That's bizarre. I'm not surprised that #2 is gone, as it was not in a
spot that would be easy to avoid muggles seeing, but #3 was pretty off
the beaten track, I would have thought. #1 is still there? Have to
look the next time I go out there and see how many people actually
stamped in it. Not an easy grab on a weekend :-o

VC is not an easy place to hide LBs, not for those who don't want to
hike a couple of miles or more. I won't consider hiding any in most
city parks, as I know they'll disappear. I have plans for one in Leo
Carrillo SP, and one on the Los Robles Trail in T.O., and one above
Wheeler Gorge in Rose Valley, and on the Ray Miller Trail in Point
Mugu SP's La Jolla Canyon area. There are other areas, too; maybe you
can find a few of them :-) What holds me back is the carving. I'm
not artistic at all, but I refuse to use a store-bought stamp unless
the thing *really* fits, or there is a connection that works. Most of
the places I want to hide boxes in, no store-bought stamp is likely to
fit.

Cheerio!
