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.

A Picture Perfect Weekend~

Sue & I headed to VT for the weekend and had a wonderful time. The weather was perfect - not a cloud in the sky on either day and temps in the low 70's.

Vermont is at its best during mud-season - we think! Very little mud this weekend, thanks to warmer than normal temperatures the previous week. Many of the locals are on vacation this time of year and the other property owners in our complex stay away this time of year so it was like we were the only people around!

We found time to enjoy the birds and could hear the loud tap-tapping of the pileated woodpecker. While we never caught a glimpse of them, we could "hear" their progress up the side of the mountain, as they advanced their way from tree-to-tree. Very few bugs are around this time of year and the beautiful blue sky was a joy to behold.

Fairly early on Saturday, Sue & I headed out to find a very special letterbox! After a few chores on Saturday afternoon, we enjoyed a nice dinner and capped off the night while sitting around the firepit on the deck - planning our spring and summer adventures - including our upcoming FL trip this coming Saturday and our fast-approaching Letterboxing Cruise!

We hope that whatever you did this weekend, you enjoyed nature's beauty and the wonderful weather that we were graced with in New England and that you had someone special with which to share it!


Have a good week!
