Hi! I'm new to letterboxing, but already hooked! I've placed two so far... one in Brisbane and one in Toowoomba, and I'll be placing more soon. My letterboxes are also accessible on horseback. Hope that someone finds mine, and I also hope to find oth...

I have prited out a list of Ontario letterboxes accessed via letterboxin.org /letterboxesNorth America /Canada /Ontario. I have visited 3 of these letterboxes. Yet when I am logged in and do a search, I CAN NOT FIND THEM and therefore CAN NOT LOG t...

Hi Shelley, some folks only list their boxes on one site even tho they may be members of both. AQ has 77 Ontario boxes listed, Letterboxing.org site has 91 plus 3 mystery so 94 ONT boxes. As AQ is still fairly new, lots of people list only on LBNA w...

Yes, the point should be AWAY from the line being left. If not, you will cut under the image that will be stamped and the image will them become unsturdy.

I'll buy that for a few dollars!! I'll also be in great need of that phone# (so I can bug you every time I need to know which way to turn =) ). Also, where is this list of stamp themes? Is it the link on the event info page? Thanks, Weyrwoman

Quote The 11th Commandmeent: Thou shalt not go boxless". I just saw this post (from 2 weeks ago - yea, I'm a little behind times). Anyway, when I saw it I thought that would be another option on the secret letterboxer question - What's the 11th comma...

I took a tactical pause from my bummer summer of 18 hour days of studying... (18 tests, 3 papers and 1 extended project down--1 paper and 2 tests to go--provided I've passed everything I've submitted so far!!!) ...to sneak in 'Secondhand Lions'. Lo...

I have the book already--just haven't gotten a spare moment to read it yet. Is this a movie where I'd rather have read the book first? I've got the DVD reserved at the library (yes, we're frugal too--so we can travel)--should I wait until after we re...

IMO, books are always better than movies because there is room for character development and richness of detail that movies can't have due to time constraints. They stick to a single, primary story arch without the extra richness of secondary/supportin...

I haven't planted them all though But I am looking forward to boxing in Ohio. I do have another odd question that just might fit in here. The stamp I carved yesterday was my Johnny Appleseed hitchhiker. I carved him wearing boots. But I'm thinking no...

I agree with Quill. Though I've yet to read Whale Rider, (it's now on my list) LOTR was beautifully done. Though I always recommend reading the book first, LOTR could stand on it's own. S~N~K I also want to read Charlie and the Chocolate Factory

Weyrwoman, I don't think that info is posted on the event page. The host emailed everyone that RSVP'ed (I THINK she emailed everyone) with an update. I will send you a copy of the same email. But just in case you aren't the only one wondering, here is...

I think I'd be worried about the camera getting wet. It sounds fun, though. It would especially cool if there weren't a lot of gatherings around to meet people or if it was a touristy box that attracted lots of out of towners. Desi

Geocachers do that sometimes. They'll actually post some of the pictures on geocaching.com when the camera gets full. DebBee
