are numerous boxes down here that you can hunt for if you are
suffering from letterboxingitis. Just be careful hunting for the
boxes in the Palo Alto area because most of them are missing. I am in
the process of incorporating my Cradle box into a new set of clues
called The Alameda Creek, which is located in the Fremont area. I
will be posting the clues for that series very soon. Just wait a week
(or more), and then there will be more boxes.;)

was at Sugarloaf. I had read that the Windsor box was missing, so we
didn't even go there. The trip to Sugarloaf was wonderful, and we had
a great hike. But, there was no water at the falls this time of year.
We are planning on going back up to hike more in the spring, and
hopefully see the falls.

to find more letterboxes soon.

> Hi... My husband and I are new to letterboxing and are very
excited at the prospect of getting out in the woods and seeing all
the great possibilities. I eagerly carved a stamp and we set out to
find one of the only two boxes in our area of the Northern Bay Area.
We had a great time searching for the Windsor, CA LB that was listed
on the web site. Unfortunately, we were unable to find it (you can
imagine our disappointment, this being our first box and all). I
think we were in the right place, but there were a lot of downed logs
and didn't have any luck. If whoever planted this box is lurking on
this list, you might want to check on it. It could be that we just
couldn't find it because of our own inexperience, but otherwise it is
MIA. I guess now we will go and attempt the Sugarloaf box as well as
boxes south and east of us. Be on the lookout for boxes we have
planned for the future that will hopefully show off the beauty of
wine country and the Northern CA coast. Morningsong
