The Hitchhiker Race is On!
Rosie Ruiz a Late Entry!!!



Many of you may have heard about the Thumbin' Critters Hitchhiker Race. As of the last post, Q says that there are presently 10 hitchhikin' animals that will start in Los Angeles county, California and hitchhike their way from West to East coast, with the winner being the first to arrive in NYC's Halloween Adventure Letterbox. There will be reports along the way as letterboxers move them from box to box on their paths to their final destination in the Big Apple.

Rumor has it, from several reliable sources, that there is a late entry into this race! Not a critter, but a humanoid - Rosie Ruiz. For those of you unfamiliar with her name, check out this link for a short Rosie bio. Rosie is in this thing to win!

We have set up a page to track these critters [and Rosie] as they wend their way East. There is a voting poll to place your vote for whom you want to win this race. Also you may keep track of your favorite entry's position in the race . . . . and may the best critter/human win!
