I may have asked you before - but what is Letterboxing????

Shelly, it's so much fun! It's sort of like geocaching, but you don't use a GPS.

Basically, people carve stamps and hide them, along with a logbook, all over the place. You look up clues on the internet (www.atlasquest.com is a great site), and use the clues to find the treasure! You also have your own stamp to put in their logbook, and you stamp theirs into your own logbook.

It's a really fun way to get out and explore...Jon and I like to have a *goal* when we go out, rather than just go walking or hiking aimlessly.

It's very family-friendly, too! You should check it out!

That sounds SO COOL! I wonder if there is something like that in good ol' G-boro??? I will have to look into it!
