Hi -
Wanda and Pete reported my mystery box missing last
week, so I went out to check its status.
Just wanted everyone to know that my box is intact.
Sorry, Wanda and Pete, maybe you're mistaken about the
location (it is a mystery afterall).
Elise

(Caution: dinosaur or red herring hitcher hints may be lurking!)
WOW! turns out we had the exact right spot after all, but just didn't
dig deep enough! Guess we took letterbox placement guidelines a bit
too literally, although we did remove some of the area's surface
trash! Hope the next folks along have a better experience!!!
We also visited several other boxes in the area, including one where
someone who recently found a lot of hitchers wrote us she had picked
up our Little Tiny Sailboat and left another hitcher in its place,
but couldn't remember which one. Turns out there hadn't been any
hitcher left behind , but we decided to leave a little something
ourselves anyway, to show our appreciation for all the great boxes
we've found in the area lately. Hope you all get to share in the fun
in a timely fashion, and please forgive me for being such a
blabbermouth! (I guess I just can't help it!)

Yeah, for what's supposed to be a fancy neighborhood,
that spot collects a lot of wind-blown trash. That's
because folks insist on putting out their trash and
recycle the night before collection no matter what
kind of storm or gale is blowing through.
Thinking about adding a couple more boxes to the
immediate area to make it worth the trip. Just can't
think of any other points of interest.
