Seven Years

Today is the 7 year anniversary of my first letterboxing experience. I can't believe I've been doing this crazy hobby for seven years! I can't believe I've been doing this crazy hobby for seven years and still can't carve a stamp worth a darn!

My friend Rinda (aka Sleepy Whippet) told me about letterboxing one day when we were having lunch together. She took me out for my first letterboxing day on September 1, 2003 to McIver State Park, where we did the Making Faces series and the the Jurassic Park series. I think we got about 15 boxes that day and I was hooked. Now I don't even know how many boxes I've found. According to Atlas Quest it's 893, but I suspect it's higher than that.

I have made so many wonderful letterboxing memories in these past 7 years. Walked lots of miles, met lots of people, admired lots of art, experienced so many new places that were right in my back yard. I think I am a better person because of letterboxing.
