Oregon Adventures....

The elusive Blue Lake Box was unable to dodge the 14 eyeballs that
headed out in search of it. The seven of us met up at a local
Mexican eatery then headed out for The Hunt:

Funhog: The mastermind of the "seven heads are better than one"
theory.

Windairen (Caitlin) and Dragon Dart (Keegan): Members of the
Traveling Circus and excellent carvers. Look for their stampings
appearing in boxes near YOU!

Pearly Girl (Renee): A newbie, going out for the second time. Some
sort of affiliation with Funhog, but I forgot to ask what exactly
that was. =)

Amanda from Seattle!: Infamous and well-known around the country.
Still at large.

The Paisley Orca (a.k.a. Amanda from Portland!): The one voted most
likely to cause physical harm to Der Mad Stamper for his crypic
clues. =)

And myself, of course. No introduction necessary. =)

We headed out, under dark and cloudy skies, and those 14 eagle-
like eyes spotted the elusive box running (naked, no less!) through
the park. It ran. It cried. It fought back, desparately trying to
get away, but to no avail. We successfully caught the box. After
signing in and taking group photos of the successful hunt, the box
was released back into the wild, unhurt, and now waits for a chance
at vengence against the next unlucky boxer to come its way.
