SitRep: Boxing in CT

From: Brian, Ryan & Lori (bconnoll@marksonrosenthal.com) | Date: 2002-12-30 15:24:29 UTC
TeamGreenDragon spent Sunday in beautiful Mansfield CT and found the
following boxes in great shape. #2 (Monarch) & #3 (Lunar) in the Mt.
Hope series. We'll be going back for the other two when the snow
melts. We then moved on to search for the "Three Wizards" series at
the Merrow Meadows Park and found all three of these (#3 "Harry
Potter" was our 100th find). We also found the "Merrow Park" box
(This one has quit a bit of history in its Logbook). We ended our day
with the "Thank You" box. Witch is how I shall end this post, By
saying "Thank You" to all the great "Boxers" in our area. Hope to
personally thank you at the MA gathering on the 18th.

TeamGreenDragon spent an incredibly cold weekend first snowshoeing at
( And also obtaining permission to place a box at ! ) "Americas
Stonehenge" in North Salem NH . Sunday we boxed in the Mansfield CT
area and found the following boxes all intact and in place. "Son of
Uncle Sam" (We where unable to locate "Stars and Stripes". Is the
compass bearing for this correct ? ) , all three of the "When I was a
Girl in the Martin Box Series" (Very interesting locals for
Boxes !! : ) ) , "Got Milk?" , "John Storrs" , "General Store" (
Where we did get milk ! ) , and "KJ's Best" ( We didn't know there
was a box here ( went in to look at the stamps ) but overheard some
very nice young women discussing it and they pointed us in the right
direction ! Thanks!! ). I can't believe there is more snow coming (
I've got about ten stamps carved and ready for planting ) is this
ever going to end ?

Hey Team Green Dragon , Thanks for coming down yes there has been a
reading off report on that box I've been meaning to check it and
repost. Others have found it though. There are others right near
there you will want to go back for anyway. Revolutiionary Women,
Grandson of Charter Oak, my add on to the Rev. Women Red bird@
Truman's meadow , Skungamaug, so glad you got the Got Milk it will
be buried in snow for quite a while now! Neat you found some
generous souls who shared the location of KJ's best it has been very
popular and is the second box there. The first was pinched but they
called and asked for another it was so popular. When you come back
let me know we could meet up and do a couple together. carol - Leader

The compass bearings are badly off for that box, but
if you read the clues and pay attention when you drive
in, you can find it through a process of elimination.
Good luck. :-)
