For several months I have been thinking about and working on
developing a variant of the treasure hunt game that I refer to as
StoneStashing. It is certainly based in my love of letterboxing, but
quite different in some ways. Recently with great input from some
others I have finally begun to develop a website devoted to the idea.
The very first Stone Stash has been placed in combo with my
Canaveral Marsh Letterbox. It has already been found for the first
time by Sandi from Kissimmee. I expect another visitor to it very
soon.
If anyone is interested in finding out more about StoneStashing you
can check out the website http://www.stonestashing.com . Right now
there is only a little basic info and some discussion forums where
interested folks will meet to talk about the hobby. Much more to come
in the near future. If you want to participate in the discussions
just go to the forums page and register so you will be able to post.
As this is a little off topic for this list please either contact me
directly with questions, or better yet post them to the forums on the
site. Thanks.

That's a pretty neat idea.

Eric, I love the stone stashing idea! I have thought about hiding a
letterbox and using that idea instead of a stamp but thought most
letterboxers wouldn't bring a large enough log book.
Neat idea.

Mohmers,
Thanks much for the interest. Just as an idea for you and others, I
have been using stones that I cut into small slabs about the same
size as rubber stamps. I thought about actually putting them in
letterboxes (with combo letterbox/stonestashes) with the stamp but
thought it would confuse people and they would try to use it as a
stamp. Obviously anyone could use whatever size stone (or letterbox
stamp for that matter) they wish but I have tried to make them small
enough for typical logbooks. Please log onto the forums on the site
if you are interested continuing to talk about it and in possibly
participating. Thanks again.
