I've alwys thought that with the "manifest destiny" mind-set we have
with
U.S. letterboxing, that we should be open to putting letterboxes
wherever
we feel like it, as long as it is respectful of property and nature and
as
long as we consider the safety of the letterbox searcher. There's no
reason that a letterbox can't be placed at the end of one's driveway!

Keep the ideas flowing...
