pilgrimsinthisland,

I'm so glad I saw this thread!!

I will be sure add this to my prayer list as well! This sounds like an almost overwhelming situation. I know that God never gives us more than we can bear---but boy, it seems like this is pushing those limits for sure. A big part of faith is turning it over to Him to lift that heavy burden. I pray for that and for new found strength for you all as well, my dear friend!!!

Hugs,
TT

I'd like to save a search for all new boxes listed in a state (in my case IL and IN). When I set up the search (advanced search - area search - recently listed - US - Illinois) I see the list on my screen of the new boxes, I save the search, give it a name and click to receive notification. When I click on that name in my searches on my page, I get a list of all new boxes across the US and not just Illinois. Is it a glitch or am I setting it up wrong? Thanks!!

It really wasn't that bad once you got past all the chuncks

I see that when you are viewing a box you only have a Mapquest mapping option. I usually use Google maps so I am not too familiar how Mapquest works. When I click the Mapquest hyperlink it brings me to Mapquest with only the city field filled in and it doesn't map to anything. I assume the state is also supposed to be populated. When there is a street address I assume that is supposed to be filled as well and isn't.

Just curious, was this one addressed under another thread?

Anyone know what that sticker is all about???

Nope.... not me.... But a funny situation... A couple of weeks ago, I had a sticker from something that I can't remember and needed to put it somewhere. Being funny with DrWatson in the truck, I stuck it on my forehead. That was okay. But, I had forgotten about it being there and we went to a McDonald's and ordered through the drive thru. The cashier kept looking at me like I was a lunitic and I couldn't figure out why. After I turned to the Dr and said what's up with that, she busted a gut laughing at me..... Then it dawned on me what the hub-bub was all about..... Duuuuuhhhhh!!!! Then I had to laugh at myself from the look that cashier gave me... It was one to remember....

Ah yes-well to prove a point I wasn't the one who suggested Eidelon-THAT was night writer! LOL=as for the idiot part=I so could not have boxed on crutches, but you did good Gimpy! I'll take whatever shape, size, color idiot I can find! :-p

You be careful-I'd be more worried if I were you that the first person suggested to me for an idiot was YOU Eidelon! LOL

Oddly enough-I didn't put that there-I can't remember who I pawned that off on at the beginning of the meet but remember I was with YOU at the 'Hooch' during the car decorating time! LOL

That's funny VanMan!

That Chaguita slogan has been around for a long time or else has been dusted off and reissued. I had a boyfriend when I was 17 that would be funny and put the stickers on his forehead and walk around campus. I always just thought it was one of those old sloagans that they've used forever. Ah, my brain just went blank fishing for examples. But you know, like "Leave the driving to us" or "Look for the union label" or "We'll leave the light on for you."

Was it Charo that was in the ads when she peeled herself out of the banana? That would be a stamp in itself to capture the imagination of the heretowith yet carved next in collection of SW. Lot of words to try avoiding saying 'pimp." Coochie, coochie.

As far as Roadside America type stamps, like the giant ball of twine or the worlds tallest bottle of ketchup. I can't wait to see what people decide to do!

e-mail me some of the information so I know what I'm getting into here and what gear I need.

You be careful-I'd be more worried if I were you that the first person suggested to me for an idiot was YOU Eidelon! LOL

I'm sure it wasn't the first time he and idiot were in the same sentence nor will it be the last....

*note to self* do NOT read this thread early in the morning.............*barf*

Ok, so I'm sorry I didn't get the clues posted early yesterday, but I figured it would just make it more challenging because it wouldn't be the weekend! LOL I can't wait to see who finds it first!

Ah so you think others will call Eidelon an idiot? Maybe we should put a tracker on that?
Email you with information-um, okay-well I don't hafta-here-big cliffs, water, you'd be an idiot to try to plant this box? LOL

Did you get the letterbox located at the bridge?

I didn't know about letterboxing at the time, so sadly I did not get that box. hopefully I'll get sent back down there soon. =)

I'm sure we'll have an event in Titusville or Melbourne one of these days. That would be pretty close to you. :o) Our Fall Gathering is going to be in Chuluota, just west of Titusville. I bet you could make it then, too!

But it's observed next Monday, the 8th, according to my calendar.

I guess we better pick a really warm day (if we have any more coming) if I have to get wet doing this. I'll try anything once so have 911 at the ready on your cell phone

It *probably* won't be me, Moose Lady. I was just messing around with Sweet N Sassy. I bet I'll get to it before the month is up, though.

Van Man---I agree with mowizliz---that is hilarious!! LOL Thanks for being brave enough to share with us! =) I therefore dedicate my banana sticker to you!! =)

mowizliz---I had no idea this was an old Chiquita campaign?! I don't even really get the point of it??? It actually comes dangerously close to that goofy Head On commercial?! Did I say that out loud??

we are planning a trip out that direction sometime in the summer and will be happy to plant around SLC, Provo and Orem if someone would like to care for them since we are in St. Louis. The B HUnters

Apply directly to the forehead!

Call and response, baybee. Call and response. Does anyone actually want to admit trying the stuff? Hmmm, it didn't do much for me. Even after applying directly to the forehead.

Not completely sure when it would hit off, maybe on the day primarys officially begin or end, ithink its like sept2,4

don't be intimidatd, i just started my first ring (what i want for christmas) and signed up for 2 more! muahahha, its a ton of fun :) and carving skills come w/ time :)
