Glad to hear other people have problems with insurance companies! Don't feel alone! One thinks that when they are stopped at a red light and you are hit from behind(no brakes applied) a clear rear ender that it is the other guys fault! You would be WRONG. I've now been fighting for over a year! What I have learned - if you rear end someone just say "hey, where is that car that hit me?" apparently you don't even have to have damage! Just sayin!!! All I can say is that no one was seriously hurt!

No duh, right?
i'm thinking of clues along this line:
Bear, camo pouch, cemetary, tree, someplace where i stopped.
i think that's enough directions, don't you?

Well, night before last Chris's temparture went up and he was iced packed to try and get it down. His cough got worse and the nurses on his regular floor and Sandy made the call to put him in ICU for the night to get better and fullest attention. Yesterday his temp. started coming back down and as of yesterday afternoon was in the normal range and we so hope and pray it will stay there. I plan to call up there later today to hear how things are going and will post the results.

Buy some sticky corners (double sided tape squares) in the photo store. They work really well.
I recently found a box that had a small stack of photos in it. Apparently, a guy found the box by mistake and took it home with him. He contacted the placer, realized his mistake, and replaced the box along with some favourite photos of the area. It was kind of nice. The kids looked at the pics of the waterfowl while I stamped in.

Not in Arkansas. Even if you were hit first you could be ticketed for failing to properly control you vehicle.

If you do a Board search on this topic you will see many threads on why people choose to keep their logbook private. And also why some people choose not to log their finds online at all.

I am in Geneva-on-the-Lake regularly - my husband lives there - oddly, I do not. Rsilver and I would love to meet you - AQmail me with more specific dates and we'll see what we can do. Weekends are my time there (I work in Atlanta M-F, but live in Medina - geesh!). Rsilver is there nearly everyday - you can see the lake from his living room window.

I am very sorry to hear of your father's passing. Sounds like a goodnik, as any letterboxer surely is. ;) I hope you find peace with this soon and are able to honor him with a letterbox dedication perhaps. I'm sure you have a great story to tell about him and it would be interesting.
Hugs,

My personal logbook has photos for almost every find that I have. I use a glue stick to attach them to the page I'm working on, but then I'm also putting the pages in "page protectors". Sorta like scrap booking........my way.;}
Check out how photos are mounted into a matted frame. This may work for your purposes.

I have read 3 in the series.
Personally, I don't want to read minds. If I had a power, I would want to be able to be invisible. That would be so helpful when I am out letterboxing! LOL

Sad to say, it seems I have lost my passion/obsession with letterboxing lately. Several factors seem to be contributing to this: a glut of crappy store-bought-stamp boxes with terrible clues new to the area, boxing with a overly dramatic 5 year old, the hot weather, a few of my own boxes getting geo-trashed or going missing.
I still log on to AQ everyday. What can I do to get that crazy look back in my eyes when I print clues? Am I just waiting for better weather and back-to-school?
