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!!!"

Ivy Weighs In . . .



Friend and fellow blogger, Poison Ivy, has offered his take on the goings on with CT's missing boxes. It's interesting to read the opinions of one from afar - who has no emotional attachment to the situation. I have to say that I agree. Read Ivy's take here.
Wonder if a safer approach to letterboxing, I wrote to PI, might be to consider your box lost the day you plant it. Then, every day it survives is a bonus.
I really think a lesson should be learned from all of this. We placers have to plant more difficult boxes - mysteries, coded clues, picture clues and on longer hikes. This will keep the muggles away.
Why would they pilfer boxes that they cannot find?
