EXCLUSIVE!!!
Now the President Contacts Us!!!

President G. W. Bush's Letterboxing Signature Stamp

This has been a very unbelievable week! First, John Kerry, then the Bandits and now the President of the United States!

The following exciting message was just received via email:

"Please post my personal letterboxing stamp.
As you can see, this stamp is clearly better than Senator Kerry's.
A clear indicator of who should win the upcoming election.

Thank you,
W

Sadie and Russ Become #5!

In a non-related story, Sadie & Russ have completed the CT State Stamp Series, becoming the 5th on our Hall of Fame list. Great work to this Southern CT Duo. Heard Russ needed a little help with our Hartford County Mystery box from a famous, wonderful winged mutual friend of ours!

What is Letterboxing?
Letterboxing enthusiasts hide and hunt weatherproof containers in remote or scenic places. Each container holds a logbook, a rubber stamp and stamp pad. The planter of the letterbox distributes clues to it's location via the internet, Word of Mouth, on websites or via other means. Clues can be easy to difficult. Finding a letterbox may require a combination of skills such as mapreading, orienteering, and puzzle-solving.

Letterboxers carry their own logbook and personal stamp when hunting for hidden boxes. Upon finding a letterbox, they will imprint their own logbook using the found stamp, and leave their own stamping or personalization in the letterbox's logbook. Some artistic letterboxers carve and even design their own stamps and logbooks. Letterboxes are hidden in various locations throughout the world.

Letterboxing has its beginnings in Dartmoor National Park in England, where the first letterbox at Cranmere Pool was placed in 1854 by a Dartmoor guide named James Perrott, who left his calling card in a container there while guiding tourists through Dartmoor.
