I am counting up only some of the wonderful things about letterboxing tonight! Feb 26th marked 1 year since my surgery on my ankle / foot. I am walking so much better with a little help from a new orthodotic. I remember that while my "toes were above my nose", my friend, MissMoon, took pity on me & sent me a wonderful surprise package. And then my friend Hyacinth came over nearly every day to help me for weeks.

This Fall a few AQ friends sent stamps to me that I hope to plant this Spring ( if we can ever find Spring here in NY). It should be a series to delight the finder!

Then over these last few days, an AQ friend has told me stories, harassed me, & amused me - it's been fun. Everyone needs someone to talk to when the transfers just won't transfer & you want to throw them out the door!

Yesterday was another surprise when I received a little token in the mail from Buzzkill. Then this morning I had a hoot of a conversation with said Buzzkill! With laughter on my lips, I set out to CT to meet Bungalow Boxer to learn a new stitch for binding logbooks. Whoever planned those CT roads is in trouble - that was not a pleasant journey! But Bungalow Boxer saved the day by being a generous & wise teacher, as well as a new friend.

This is only the beginning of the names that I could count, the fun I have had, the stamps I have found, & the fabulous places I have been. Here is to so much more to come!!

Ain't Letterboxing grand?

We will, we will, we will. Is that the series I think it is? I am looking forward to doing it. Yea!

I am so glad your foot is pretty much back to normal. Surgery is never fun, especially when it puts you in a chair and makes it so hard to get around. Good to know you are back on the trails.

Thanks MM. I AM pretty much better!

Is that the series I think it is?

I am not sure. Too many plan!! Come find it though when it is planted!! ; )

Let's go find a box or 2!!

Wait, you didn't have tears in your eyes after our conversation? Apparently I have failed in my mission to spread gloom throughout the land. I guess I'll have to try harder next time.

So glad to hear things are going so well for you. A few months ago I got a glimpse of a stamp you were working on as part of a series. Will definitely be over that way when you get to planting it.

Oh yes, I did have tears in my eyes! Tears from laughing so hard! Thanks for the laugh!

Now that was another fun day, Riverkat! Tramping through the woods with you two back in the Fall!! I look forward to doing it again!

Letterboxing is grand!!
