You guys will like this story. Many years ago, SWMBO and I were constructing a small footbridge over a creek on our property -- which, yes, is in Florida. Basically, dig 4 post holes, drop in 4 posts, hang some structure onto the posts, add ramps to...

If someone wants to translate the whole thing it would be fun to know. Uhh, 1 2 3 not it! ...something something "postcard size". ;)

Thanks for all the hard work, crazy puzzles, cool stamps, and wonderful haunts we saw at your event Springchick and Doglvrs. It was really fun despite all the rain!

Not wanting to get too far down this rabbit hole, but the material packaging that you posted is/was identical to the packaging I had for a material listed on Amazon as "san note". Mine is/was the same thickness you describe, but was blue on one side a...

Nobody is ever going to want to box in Florida again if we keep this up. Our reputation is in need of some protection & rumor control. So I'd like to take this time to point out that while we may not be a mecca boxing state, we are not the only state w...

I got nipped by a snake, sliced by vines, bitten by fire ants and had the bejeezus scared out of me by a manatee......I would HAPPILY and GRATEFULLY box in Florida in a heartbeat given half a chance (it just takes having a business reason to go anywher...

While boxing in Florida, I learned to ID a poisonwood tree...after the fact. And I've been bitten by fire ants. (My husband is allergic but thankfully, I'm not.) But I've boxed there on multiple occasions and will happily do it again! It's a beautifu...

Snakes everywhere, every state! Well except Maine & Alaska, no venomous snakeypoos there. Some people aren't fond of non-venomous snakes either. If you really want to avoid snakes, the place to go is Hawaii. There really are NO wild snakes in that stat...

In Connecticut we have two kinds of venomous snakes, plus Lyme disease. I've had it. It's not fun. I'll risk Florida anytime.

but for those who were at the Box ON in 2016, this was the material that I donated for the raffle... Bon Echo, didn't you or your girls win a slab? Yes, thank-you for posting that. I looked at the photos and thought it looked a lot like the San Note st...

I boxed for years in Florida and never came across any scary critters. Guess I got lucky? Then again they tend to steer clear from activity.

The majority of our North American alligators do inhabit Florida and Louisiana but can also be found in Texas, the North and South Carolinas, Georgia and Alabama. Virginia, Mississippi, Arkansas and Oklahoma too, if you are making a list. Don't forget...

[...] and had the bejeezus scared out of me by a manatee. Manatees stay in the water. How close were you that a manatee snuck up? To follow up on the thread in general, the only venomous snakes we have in Utah are rattlesnakes. As much as I've been...

Yes please! Go boxing in Florida. I have a couple of boxes there that like being found. That said, I've been researching boxes in the Phoenix area lately and virtually every clue ends with a warning that goes something like this: "this is a desert loo...
