Mark & Sue Pepe hail from Kensington, CT USA.

After finding our initial box in June 2002, we have since found letterboxes in 18 states and placed them in 13 states; 4 countries: Aruba, Bermuda, The Netherlands, Great Britain; and on a cruise ship! Thanks for stopping by our website and we appreciate your continued support.

"Have fun and just get out there & box!!!"

I guess that about sums it up! The letterboxing world seems to be on hiatus - the planting of boxes appears to have slowed, the talk lists are civil and peace remains in the letterboxing kingdom. Can it stay that way for long? Not if we can help it!

I received an email from friends down south, wondering if we were getting burned out after keeping up this website or just scurrying around getting ready for England. The lack of new posts on this site prompted that email, along with their concern that we might eventually curtail this website. No - we are not burned out. We have not had much to write about with the slowdown of letterboxing news, coupled with the fact that our home has been a beehive of activity - packing, planning, etc for the upcoming Dartmoor trip.

Another time-consuming, yet very rewarding task has been that of getting The Four Directions site designed and ready for the possible debut in October. It's been a pleasure working with Koyote, who has been a pure joy with which to work over these past months. Rush Gatherer and PowWow Dancer have also been a great help. Our hope is that this wonderful series that celebrates the Native Americans gets the notice and credit that it deserves. I cannot even begin to tell you of the hours they have put into this series; not counting the contributions of the individual carvers from around the country, who have offered letterboxes for the individual tribes.
