Angel Kisses and I want to thank everyone who came out today. The weather was great, the park was beautiful. Sorry the muggles caught onto us. Already thinking about the next one. ;)

It was so great to see you both! Thanks for coming out.

I've always loved spending time outdoors enjoying God's creation. Letterboxing has brought me to so many new parks and nature areas that I never would have known about or visited otherwise.

Hello All!

I have a bunch ( 12) 3 ring binders that my office is letting go for gifting. Some have dividers, Letter sheets, Plastic sleeves, etc. message me if you want these. I will be at the mushroom event in MD and will gladly give them to whomever wants them at the even. Just message me so I can put your name on them.
Message me!!

Inky Hugs,
Tina/LbH2018

I already appreciated nature and hiking before letterboxing, but it has given me a vehicle for bringing others to some of my favorite places, just as others have brought me to places I never knew about. In the process of placing boxes I have had to learn names of plants I didn't know before and which ones offer good hiding spots or are best left alone. It has also shown me that even the most mundane park can offer something of interest, even if it is just historical.

Happy 10th 🎂🎂 AQ-day to both of you. It has been fun getting to know you across the LB miles!!!

Enjoy your day and find something inky to do.

Ooohhhhh, my youngest lives in Virginia (Fairfax) - we'll be there Memorial Day weekend and I plan on going to Paper Trails event. Wil you attend that event???
I would love to spend an entire summer in DC- so much to do there and great museums!

Shelly

Our family would like to, one again, thank those who are sending cards to Lynnette. She will read them aloud but doesn't seem to relate what the words mean to her and will often hold them until we put another in her hands. She still has some mobility and will often tuck things where we wouldn't expect to find them, like her hearing aids that she slid under her mattress, lol!
For the most recent cards we could find, thanks to Little Foot, DayTrippers54, Kathy from Ohio, Cecilia D, Jayne B. from California, Connie from Texas, Sherry and Joann.

After she enjoys the cards for a couple months, the fronts are sent to St. Jude's Recycled Card program and others to a local children's consignment store to make tags for merchandise.

You kindness has a ripple effect. Blessings to all.

I dropped several in the mail this weekend. Tracking says you should have them this Friday or Saturday.

Just listed a Halloween themed event for the West Coast of Florida!

Planning an LB cruise your way in June of 2026.

Yep, we are going to do it again. Different park this time. Don't know which just yet. Might even be a 2 day event so we can get in some night boxing.

You had me at hand pie.

Released in 2023 comes our 4th WA movie . . . Asteroid City.

The premise is as follows:

I think . . . it's about a play being developed, being broadcasted, being produced????

So, the play, the movie, the development is about a collection of people who come to Asteroid City for the Junior Stargazer Awards. The recipients are all children who invented inventions beyond their years.

As it happens each collection of people, including a school teacher and her pupils, and roving band, all have their own personal issue going on.

There's the family whose car has a strange mechanical malfunction. Their mother has died, and their father has failed to tell the children 3 weeks after her passing. The father struggles with his grief. But more over, he struggles with his role in his life, in the play, in the production.

Then there is Dinah, who's brilliance is eclipsed (see what I did there) by her mother's celebreality status.

Then there's the kid who insists on be dared to do crazy things. He has a hurt that needs to be addressed.

But moreover, on the night of the awards a special eclipse is supposed to happen when a very unexpected event happens with the eclipse.

Having said more than enough, on to my WA Paws:

This movie is visually stunning. It's gorgeous. One WA Paw.

Everyone is very committed to their role and does a fine job. Jason Swartzman does an outstand job of being a bereaved father and he has this great moment with Margot Robbie. Tom Hanks delivers. But One WA Paw.

But that is it. I mean there are great moment with Tom Hanks and his granddaughters but overall, I didn't get the point of this movie. I didn't care to for the full frontal of Scarlett Johansson. I didn't understand the importance of alien coming. I didn't get a lot of this movie. I simply thought this was such a waste of absolute talent.

Okay, as it Monday, I am going to have skip Wednesday's review and shoot for Sunday.

Next up from the jar is . . . The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar.

I love Wes Anderson's movies, but this is the only one of his movies that I fell asleep watching. When I woke up I asked my husband if I missed anything important to the plot, he said "No. You were better off sleeping."

Sounds great!! Come to Anchorage!!

I finally went back and finished it after starting it a while back and I really liked the originality of it. It was different than your usual run of the mill movie fare.

Wow. I need to sign up for it. This reminds me I need to create a letterbox where I volunteer, at the Washington Cathedral LEGO cathedral build. Google it if you know any LEGO fans

Yes indeed. That project harbored many secrets and mysteries. It’s the one that most thought was an April Fools Joke. It took me many frustrating months to finally get it made and mailed. I liked how it turned out though.

Happy 9th 🎂 AQ-day!!!

Hope you had a great, sunny, inky day!

Happy AQ day!

I was wondering if anyone had any tips for navigating Harold Parker? I started the Da da da da, da da da da BATMAN! https://www.atlasquest.com/showinfo.php?boxId=307338 series but every clue references number markers and more than half of them are missing :/ Any tips? anyone know where the markers used to be? I've been using the map as I go but there's just SO many unmarked trails and SO many little ponds (I counted 5 on my last trip) that it is VERY tricky to find precisely where the markers were supposed to be. Cheers.
