Planting & Boxing

Resting while mom takes notes.

Today we went out and planted our Monster High boxes.  It is supposed to storm on Halloween so we planted them today and will list them on Thursday.  A few times this year we drove past an area while letterboxing that caught my attention and I wanted to check it out.  It is a little nature preserve with a small loop trail.  We had a nice time walking and planting our boxes and hope that the finders enjoy it too.

We have already boxed in this area and thought that we had found/attempted everything.  But then I discovered that there were some old boxes on LbNA that we had missed.  Both of the boxes that we looked for were planted in 2007.

St Joseph Church in Jasper,

The first one we found was in St Henry.  The stamp was great but the box was in horrible shape.  It was a pouch and it had bugs, water, and mud in it.  We replaced everything but the stamp.  When we got home I discovered that it has been retired on AQ but it is there :)

The other box that we found was planted at St Joseph Catholic Church in Jasper.  The church and grounds were beautiful.  The box was very easy to find.  We actually think it was in the wrong spot because it was a little to easy to find.  This box had recently been updated and we were the second people to stamp in the new logbook.  The kids enjoyed running around while I stamped and they lost one of our old store bought signature stamps.  All in all it was a nice day.
