I have a few days after the Jump for Joy event to spend in Connecticut. I can go anywhere. Where would you suggest? I know you all have boxes everywhere, but do you have any towns, graveyards, parks with particularly high concentrations of boxes? Where are your favorite series to hunt?

I don't have any help for you, but your subject reminded me of this.

Well gosh, there are so many. It would help if you narrowed down what sort of boxing experience you prefer. Long hikes in wilderness? Short walks near the beach? Busy parks with lots of boxes? Drivebys? Historical sites? Old boxes? I found a box yesterday on the Pine Knob loop trail in the northwest hills that has been active since 2002. The hike was absolutely gorgeous, with the trail joining the Appalachian Trail and overlooks of the mountains. But there was a lot of uphill and not everyone wants that.

Hello,
I particularly enjoy the Sheep Farm which is also in Groton. We found Bo Peep and her sheep, they are adorable.

There is a new series that I need to get out there for - The Enemies of the Sheep.

If you can literally go anywhere in the state and you want to box your butt off, I highly suggest Sleeping Giant State Park in Hamden! Do some research and printing before you go. :) I know that park really well if you want more advice!
