I am glad to hear the Evanston box is still there after all this
time. It was the first box I found years ago, and I think I was the
first one to stamp in there. Too bad I won't be back in Chicago
anytime soon to find the one's you are hiding.

The funny thing was that when I got there
construction crews were all over the place and all I could think was, oh no!
It's definitely still there though. Talk to you later.

I think Rachel relocated the box to it's current site quite a while
ago. When I found it, it was in some rocks along the shore of the
lake. It certainly would not have survived the lake weather there for
3 years. Glad to hear it is still safe. I'll have to try to find it
again sometime in it's current placement whenever I get back to
Chicago. I wonder if that would "officially" count as another find?
