Quote humm...anyone wonder how far phoenix would take it to get a box?


He got first finders on the Go Togethers' box that was in a dark nature preserve. He went to the place at 11pm at night and climbed large hills and went through some muddy field in order to find it. Did it by flashlight. Also went with no clues and relied on me reading to him over the phone.

And he's only gotten worse since then...

We're in Brighton - 880 Westfall Road to be exact! Right near S. Winton.

Wow, I used to live 2 minutes from there. We are now in Fairport.

Let us know if you need help setting up the office or anything! How cool. Will you be moving here as well? Will you stay in Brighton or look elsewhere?

There are a few houses for sale in my neighborhood!! :-)

Heck, I watched him wade through chest high snow at Desperately Seeking Sun because he knew one of Jackbear's amazing carves was hidden nearby. I went with him just so there was someone to pull him out of a drift if he got stuck, but he ended up rescuing MY 5'2" body even more! We finally got to the hiding space only for him to nudge a branch weighted with heavy snow that promptly dumped on his head! BUT he managed to stamp in and be the first finder and began the long trudge through deep snow back to the lodge. Halfway through he turned to me and spoke those Immortal Words....."Donner, Party of Five!" I practically lost it I was laughing so hard!

So yes, NOTHING stops Phoenix from getting a box. I think he and Partypig may have been separated at birth...

Whoops! Just noticed I didn't reply to your reply!

We're staying in Buffalo until we sell our place here. I'm still working here and will continue for a while. We're looking on the east side of Rochester - Fairport is a possibility! Not too interested in staying in Brighton - a little too close to the city for us.

It was nice seeing you guys at MA! (although I was a little bit distracted by a hyperactive toddler and a screaming-for-mommy baby...)

Still no finders on the four boxes I planted 17 days ago. Mr Pheonix, I know you are busy with your practice and what not but this is downright Shocking! :-)
