Mark & Sue Pepe hail from Kensington, CT USA.

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

And the Dogs Keep Walkin' . . .

The add-ons to our Dog Walk series has increased again! There are now a total of 9 add-ons to our original 3 boxes. And watch for our newest bonus box to be added on to one of the add-ons after next weekend! Our bonus is called Home Sweet Home and its clue will be placed in one of the add-on boxes.

Thanks to all who have added on their favorite breed to this growing series. Bicentennial Park in Kensington is a large park and there is plenty of room for more dogs. Who know where this will end!

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.
