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!!!"

Back from Bermuda~

Well - we're back! Don't want to be but that's how it goes. Our week was idyllic. Time to spend with family, making memories. The only problem that we had with Hurricane Frederick was some rough seas on Monday night - besides that - we garnered the benefits of Fred by enjoying the abnormally high surf of 8 to 9 foot waves! Three days at the beach tuckered us all out.

We left NYC at 4pm on Sunday, July 24th. A ship that was docked right next to us, left 3 hours later for Bermuda but because of the storm, had to reroute their trip to Canada! Imagine being packed and ready for Bermuda and ending up in Canada? No offense to our Canadian friends but it's a world of difference. One of the workers at the docks in NYC told me that passengers on that ship, once told of their new destination, started throwing pool furniture into the ocean!

I picked up a sinus infection towards the end of the trip and that's the reason why there hasn't been much new added since our return late Sunday afternoon. I should be back to normal in a day or two but had to add something here so you wouldn't think Sue & I were at the bottom of the ocean floor!!

Soon you can look for some pictures and clues to 2 new boxes - one planted in Bermuda that, I think, qualifies for the first one on the island and the second one - planted on the ship! That's right - somewhere on the ship is a Pinecone Production! We don't expect there to be a lot of traffic since visitors are not allowed on board - only passengers. But, if you happen to travel on the Norwegian Crown, we left a little something for ya.
