There aren't really any in the heart of Philly. So did you drop any off to give us a reason to go there and plant some more?

We have spent vacation weeks in Cape Hatteras twice a year for the last 20 years or so and even honeymooned there and have a house reserved in Buxton for mid-November. Hatteras Realty has a Facebook page and has been providing reports, pictures and vi...

I have found some of her boxes. She is an exuberant newbie to the hobby. She is not going back to retreive her box because she was advised against it. Thanks Ray, Teacup

What's this $1, 000 deal my bro is talking about? He hasn't told me about that... Its a scheme to try and get attendance at our "Evening Before the All Aboard Gathering". (I said I might have a $1,000 raffle) It apparently worked and now Georgette an...

I looked at our plant list in our logbook today and noticed a rash of blue sparkly thingies in the attributes of a few more boxes. Just wanted to thank everyone that rated the boxes. I hope you enjoyed finding them as much as we enjoyed planting them...

Ok so my friends box went to a blue diamond last month. This month it is not a blue diamond. We thought when you get a blue diamond it stays a blue diamond. Is that not the case? It can be taken away from you?

I use Gorilla Glue too. I cut a few shallow slices on the back of the pink stuff and then use a couple of small wooden boards (that I got at wal-mart in the craft section) and some of those large paper clip things with the springs to hold it together...

Never used one myself, but I've seen a few and have always worried that a driving rain with high winds would leave you drenched. Also, I don't know where you hike, but I've been able to set up my tent in tiny places in high-ish New England terrain tha...

Its a scheme to try and get attendance As if you needed a scheme with all the train event attendees. Right now the Evening Before supper looks like a nice warmup for the next day. It might take a week to wash all the ink away.

We thought when you get a blue diamond it stays a blue diamond. Nope, I've had a couple of blue diamonds go away. I don't get excited about it because I know they could go away the very next month. After the diamond stays on for a few months, I figur...

Is it possible to ignore just one box in a series? There is a 2-box series near me that I don't think has a separate 2nd box, 2 stamps are in the first box (and I didn't find clues to a second box) so I only marked 1 box. I emailed the owner to ask i...

First off, what is a "solvent ink"? And where do you get it? A solvent ink is a permanent ink that works well on plastics, rubbers, glass, and metal. You can buy some at virtually any craft store, or right from Webfoot. Second, why would you be using...

I'm a southern transplanted Northerner. I miss the cool fall air and the brisk walks as leaves swirl and fall about in great showers with the hint of November icily lapping at our necks. REAL pumpkin patches with cute farmsteads set up like an amusem...

That's awful. I hope your alright. I took my two year old grandson to the zoo.( a nice small manageable zoo) There were yellow jackets everywhere. If you left them alone, they just landed and flew away. Your right to be careful, back in the eighties my...

We've done OBX for decades & was wondering about the lack of news?? Any website suggestions to pull up & see?? Was glad to see the horses;they always stay on our carport up in the 4-wheel drive section.

Dizzy...breathe in...breathe out....don't sweat the small stuff. You need to get a job with the IRS girl...those accounting skills could be used. So I wonder if the one box was just damaged or something and someone combined them. I have found boxes...

…I’ll be disappearing! I may not be able to roost at AQ very often from Sept 3 thru Sept 25. There is a shake-up at my place of employment and we are having to disband a whole department (yuck!) So, forgive me if I don’t reply quickly to mail. Thanks y...
