Trip To Portland

The lonemasswolf is going to be in Portland, Oregon for business purposes on 5 and 6 November.
He will also be there for letterboxing business on 3 and 4 November.
 
While I am there I sure would like to meet some of the local letterboxers, for the purpose of exchanging stamps and just to say hello.
 
I also plan on hiding two of my Wolf Mystery boxes, one in Oregon and one in Washington.
 
Sure hope to hear from the Northwest contingent.

Fred!!!

It would be great to see you while you're in Portland. Maybe we can get
together a little something going on with the local letterboxers. I
have symphony tickets the night of the 3rd, but other than that maybe we
can get something going.

We had warm, sunny weather up till this past weekend and now it's the
fine Oregon fall. You may want to bring your raingear and a good hat to
keep the liquid sunshine from soaking through.

Which boxes did you have in mind to search for? That way if we have a
get together we can do it on a convenient side of town for all.

Please let me know. I'm sure we can think of something!!! It will be
great to meet you.

Best regards,

Amanda Briles

I'd have to check my calendar (which isn't with me at the moment) to
see what days or times I have available, but I'm sure I could find
some free time at some point during your Portland visit to meet up
with you.

As for looking for some letterboxes, do you intend to find as many as
possible, or go to the most scenic places and pick up whatever is
available along the way. (Quantity vs. quality) There's a billion
or so box right here in Portland, but if you've never seen the
Columbia River Gorge, Mount Hood, the coast, or whatever, they're not
to be missed--letterboxes or not. There are some letterboxes at all
of those locations, but not hardly in the quantity you'd find in the
parks in Portland and suburbs.

Or, you could check out Amanda's and my stamp logs first, to see
which stamps are the ones you most want to capture. ;o)
