newbie question about your logbooks

From: (callmemegs@aol.com) | Date: 2002-08-10 09:50:01 UTC-04:00
Im just curious as to what everyone puts in thier logbooks besides the stamp
and date. I've just recently started and put the name of the box, location,
date. I also take a picture of the park sign or area it is located. Is
there anything else others add? Just curious.

I've only found 2 boxes, but I've started mine as a travel log. I spent one
entire day driving in Vermont to find 3 boxes, so I jotted down what I
looked for, how the day was, stamped the stamp I found plus its name, and
then added the entrance sticker from the Vermont Morgan horse farm (a box I
didn't find). Sunday we found the Hip Hop box in Bennington, Vt, but before
we looked, we went to the Bennington Museum, so I added the entrance sticker
to that, plus a small paragraph of the day. I also have a few pages set
aside for the stamps of boxes I've placed, virtual boxes I've found, and
stamps that a friend has sent from Dartmoor. Kittlekatz

Greetings,

In our logbook, we have each letterbox we find on it's own page, with the name of the box, the name of the park/area it was in, the city and state, and the date. We also make a notation of which member of our family actaully found the box, as there are four of us, and we all use the same stamp (our two boys don't carry their own stamps yet). Finally, if we find a hitchhiker, we note it in our book, as well as the box logbook, and we make a similar note when we drop one off.
