Hi there!

I live in Portland, OR (city of Der Mad Stamper, Funhog and over 350 boxes in the greater area of the city).

I am going to be in New Orleans for a week with a group from my church helping with rebuilding efforts. Hey, I have 2 weeks vacation this year, but no money and nobody to spend them with, so I'm spending one week helping out. (I've been to New Orleans twice before in the 1990's and loved it.)

The week will be June 17-23. Details are still being finalized. We will be staying a church at night and coming off the work sites around 4:30ish.

I don't know which church yet, so I don't know which part of the city.

BUUUUT, I was hoping to meet some of my fellow LB'ers in LA!

Maybe, just maybe, I could hunt a few boxes with you.

Let me know!

Any slot in there in which you can come to the Baton Rouge area? Or about an hour north of it? We'll be spending a good part of that time replanting boxes in the Baton Rouge area that were some of the first planted here a couple of years ago.

There's a box in Thibodaux (about an hour from NO) and some in the Slidell area as well.

Let us know more about your schedule as the time approaches. There are only a handful of letterboxers abound here.

I've been looking at a map of your beautiful state and think an hour north of Baton Rouge probably won't be doable. =(

We'll be working all day, hammering, ripping out drywall, painting (I hope, I love it), etc. I will be with a group of 7 other people, teenagers & adults.

So, I probably won't have the ability (no car) or the time or the energy to get up to Baton Rouge at the end of the day.

So sorry I can't find these boxes or meet you!

I'm hoping to be able to poke around New Orleans for a few boxes.

Anybody else out there in the area that could come and meet me? I loooove meeting people and have found LB'ers to be wonderful!

By the way, I now know where I'm staying:

4430 Bundy Road in New Orleans.

Anybody out there available in New Orleans or nearby that would be up for a meet & greet, chat, exchange, eat beignets. . .?

Meet a bona fide west coaster!

Let me know.

Thanks!
