My resolution for 2016 is to plant every one of the 80+ stamps I've carved for LTCs.

I am certain that those in my area would greatly desire the number of stamps being planted of which I have carved. However, I have too many to have the capability to plant them all. Perchance I should be of the disposition to plant them soon following having made LTCs of them.

Nevertheless, I would not say, "They belong in a museum!"

One could very well get lost looking for them in a museum could one not?

Finish the LTCs I am signed up for.
Replace 2 letter boxes from a series, and a container from another
Retire an old series
plant at least one new series, maybe 2.
Go letterboxing and find at least 20 boxes this year. Sounds like few, but I'm not going to any events this year, that I know of. We shall see.

eevil...

Plant boxes for all the 20+ stamps we have in our repertoire...catch up with all of the Manhattan boxes that we haven't gotten, maybe attend an event? They're usually quite far from us...

Oh, and we both want to become sexy supermodels. That's pretty typical, right?

I'd like to add at least one new state/province to my "Places I've Letterboxed" list. That was my 2015 goal, too, and I barely made it (Louisiana in early December).

I'd also like to see a moose in 2016, since I failed miserably at that goal in 2015. (Yes, that's a letterboxing-related goal, because the only time I've seen moose tracks/pellets is when I was letterboxing.) I think I'd have a better chance if Southpaw and I could hike without talking, but that ain't happening.

I have 2 resolutions this year.

1. I want to find a box close to a waterfall and have a long relaxing lunch next to the fall.

2. My wonderful secrete Santa gave me a stamp , log book, AND a lock n lock. I have set March as my deadline as to coming up with a name and a place to hide. This may come easy for some but may be a little hard for me. I have had it a week now and still no name. Ugh.

Maybe you should take Wassa with you! ;-)

We have moose at the MN zoo and letterboxing very near by. Just saying....

Maybe you should take Wassa with you! ;-)

Hmm, not a bad idea. If he wears his "special" jacket, any moose within eyeshot would be stunned by it long enough for me to take a picture!

Come to Island Park, Idaho, and you can conquer two goals at one time!

I'd like to find a letterbox in every month of the year, maybe not so easy in upstate ny.

Mine is to empty my box of stamps by planting or rehoming them. Why should they sit around in a box?

1. I want to find a box close to a waterfall and have a long relaxing lunch next to the fall.

I'd love this. I tried to get to a waterfall last year, but all our parks flooded and were closed for the whole season. Not looking promising right now, either. It's either dry & no water falling, or flooded & closed. We don't have a lot where I live.

My letterboxing resolution is to get to all my local boxes and verify they are still there, rehab them, update the clues if necessary for changes in the environment. I actually already started doing this. I found that a 12 foot stump in my clues is now a pile of rotted wood.

To plant 20+ boxes and find our 1000th box ! Lofty goals for sure which should take us to more wonderful scenic areas, which we never knew was a benefit of this new hobby.

Maybe include 'Secret Santa' in the name. Something like "Shh...It's a Secret...From Santa".

Best of Luck with your plant

That's a great resolution! :^) Maybe I'll set a goal to check on more of mine, too.

Come to NY and I will take you on a tour of the falls around Ithaca. It's worth the trip.

My goal would be to find more boxes in 2016 than I did in 2015. Since I only found one in 2015, that shouldn't be a difficult goal to reach!!

Are there a lot of gorges in Ithaca? #ithacaisgorgeous. ;-)

Boxing: the final frontier. These are the voyages of the letterboxer Trekkie Gal. Her mission this year: to explore strange new locations, to seek out new boxes and new stamps, to boldly go where no Trekkie Gal has gone before. ;-)

I only found one in 2015

That's amazing. That's exactly one more than I found.

Yep. Gorges and waterfalls and parks all over. It's beautiful.

Ithaca is gorges is a popular touristy bumper sticker.

Check out Google images for treman state park or taughannock falls.

Oh so many goals...

1) Hike a 5 mile series
2) Plant a 2-3 mile series
3) Find at least 2 boxes a month
4) Find at least 15 Massachusetts Mystery boxes
5) Build a monster binder of solved clues

Nice play on words then.

I was in New Orleans in November, and I saw you got the Mardi box that I was unable to get. Glad you commented on it, so if I ever go back, I will have a better chance of getting it!

Wow, Happy New Years everyone! I love everybody's ideas with planting more boxes, doing maintenance and enjoying more fun with the SOE boxes too. One of my goals would be to hike Mt LeConte in the GSMSP next year and find figure8's letterbox. It's been a long time since I've hiked it and with a box there, that would surely give me some incentive.

Well, you know where there are plenty of moose? ALASKA!! Come visit us and we can show you a moose as I've seen about 7 this week! :) Just on my way to and from work. Fun times!
