You only disagree because you're on the West Coast. Sometimes location makes a big difference.

Tupac and Biggie are dead. We don't need another East-Coast/West-Coast rivalry. ;)

Fortunately, the rivalry will only last another couple hours.

Ah! Now I understand what you meant. Still, at least I realized it was a joke before posting. But I posted anyhow, just in case.

My kids have pnut and tnut allergies. I buy some things there. They have sunflower seed butter and I've called them about it, to make sure it is safe. They also (usually) carry mini chocolate bars, 28 in a bag for 99 cents. Only problem with TJs is that you have to check labels on everything. I always check labels but sometimes not until I get home. I bought some vanilla soymilk and realized it had the "mfg with..." warning. I just discovered their brand of choc and candy coated sunflower seeds are safe for us. They taste a bit like pnut m&ms. Some of my usual items are apple/carrot squishers, TJs juices, cheese tortellini, vanana yogurt, corn chips and tortilla chips. There are safe items, you just have to search a bit.

There are a couple of other options to think about too.
You list that these are ink free logbooks, so based on that, that plant is probably a new plant. You were the first finder of the letterbox. However, what if twenty minutes later someone else showed up, thinking they were the first finder, and found the same box. They, however, had an iPhone, Android, or some phone that receives Atlas Quest or LbNA with no problems. The box was found and logged there on the trail by the second finder.
Another option is that the person lives across the country, found a box with the same name, and logged it. Rare as it may be, it has happened with one of my boxes. After a conversation, it turns out that person found another box with the same name.
Finally, a person possibly forgot to log in the logbook. Especially if they have little ones, it could happen on accident. I know I accidentally forgot to record a stamp in my logbook and I don't have little ones. I had to make a return trip so I would have the image in the logbook.

Then again, is this post an April Fools Joke?

I enjoyed it-- and I hate Glee. :)

I don't watch GA normally, but wanted to see the hoopla. My take was that it took over the nonsense busy-talk... some songs better than others, but all in all, good episode.

The singing really killed it for me. I get that she has a brain injury and it does funny things, and she was having an out of body experience, but it was just bad. But at least the music was really sung by the actors themselves.

I thought it was odd, however, it enabled to me to talk on the phone and still keep up with the plot. Still the actors sang really well, I thought "Bailey" sang especially pretty. I like musicals but this is supposed to be a drama. Are we jumping the shark here?

Welcome to the family! I too would love to help you out; but am also in WA and have never been to Maine...

I have a 5yr old very active, very busy daughter who is homeschooled and loves a challenge... We have been boxing for nearly a year together and love all of the adventures, oppertunities and excitement it has added for her and I.

One of my favorite things is our logbooks! Yes, the hunt is great and the finds are always exciting and fun. But, we use her logbook as part of her writing lessons in school... she is required to write the date, stamp name and owner of the box in her book herself. I use my logbook as a scrapbook of sorts... I include the important information about the stamps and locations of course, but I also include pictures and momentos to make it a memory as well as a log book! This way when she is older she will have our logbooks as a record of all the fun we have had boxing and spending time together!

Enjoy and have a great adventure!!!!
