Greetings all,
I took a long walk today around Braintree. The temperature was around
55, the roads (all unpaved in this neck) were moderately muddy, the
trails still covered with snow. The snow, however, was firmly crusted
and easy to walk.
All three of my Braintree letterboxes were accessible, and have made
it through their second winter in fine shape. It was nice to see some
new stamps since I last checked them: Lone Wolf, Kim, and Royce all
stamped in on November 6 (our first LbNA gathering) and Sarah had
visited the Braintree Panther and Mud Pond letterboxes on December 6.
So..... they await new visitors for the year 2000.
BTW, Jay, I assume you will have completed a spring check on all your
local boxes by May 13!
Best,

And the weather was absolutely stunning in Valley Forge today. VF Box #2
has had 3 visitors and VF #3 has had one (and I thought they were hard :-))
I didn't get a chance to check on #5 yet, and there is some chance
Hurricane Floyd got it, so I'll try to check it soon.

Happy spring all:
Today I ventured down the bank to check on the "Prayer Rock" letterbox
alongside the New Haven River. It too fared the winter well. There was
evidence nearby of high-water debris about, so I am fairly certain it
was underwater a bit during spring melt.
Best of all, several new visitors - Sara beng one, and three
non-letterboxers who found it by accident, logged in, and promised to
return when they get their personal stamps. Hooray!
