Palo Alto boxes

From: (funhog@pacifier.com) | Date: 2001-11-23 17:29:55 UTC

Just returned home from a journey to CA. Since we were in the SF Bay
area we of course attempted to find the seven boxes listed on the map
for Palo Alto. After much scrambling around in heavily travelled parks
we managed to find only two of them. We were successful with the Byxbee
Park #1 and #2. Of the others we found three spots we were pretty sure
were correct but empty. The #2 box at Byxbee Park is in need of a new
log book (gone.) We left a few blank pages for future finders but they
won't go too far. Since these boxes were placed over two and a half
years ago in busy places I'm pleased that any of them were there. Has
anyone found the others recently? Funhog

I was in SFO yesterday. And I hunted for the 3 letterboxes in Bol
Park in Palo Alto and came up empty handed also!! Although I did
enjoy meeting Perry and Miner-Forty-Niner (donkeys). I will try
Byxbee Park next time I am there, but would appreciate someone to
confirm if the boxes there are missing or not.

Amanda You and Funhog may be the first to find these boxes since posting.
The clues had been buried in the "list". See editor's disclaimer. Don
