This was definitely a first class event in every way. Praise certainly goes out to everyone involved in making this a big success. Even with the rain pouring down, the letterboxers seemed to be in good spirits. The weather was tame compared to the snowstorm that met me during the last few hours of my drive back to St Louis today.

It's the attention to details and personal touches that really made this a fabulous event. (Loved the hand painted signs at the start of each trail.) BIG THANKS to SHH for being such a wonderful hostess.

It was great to see so many old friends again and put new names and faces together. The rainy weather definitely didn't stop this group from having a blast. Hope to see you all on the trails again soon!
