Great Day to Get Out There & Box!!!

Today, Sue and I joined the rest of the Schmoopies and hit the Manchester, CT trails. After a successful day on the trails, we found 14 boxes. We especially liked MayEve's Rainbow Row boxes.

While on the trail we ran into the Luna Crew - who were out for their very first day of letterboxing. It seems that one of the crew happened upon a letterbox by looking at a pile of logs that were near the trunk of a tree and investigated while he was looking for bugs on the trails with his 2 sons. Energized by the idea, he did some research and found letterboxing.org and we ran into them on their maiden voyage. When I told him about exchanges and asked if he was interested, he declined, stating they had never even used their stamp and wanted to stamp it into a logbook first. We gave them some pointers about HH and our website and off they went. Received a nice email from them when we got home.

Once we were finished letterboxing, we had one of the famous cheeseburger platters at Shady Glen in Manchester. Oh - by the way, we also planted Schmoopie Box #2 - Picnic in the Park! We hope you, too, got out there and enjoyed the wonderful weather this weekend.
