Hello!

I’m sorry no one has responded to this post. There are lots of dedicated Letterboxers in Virginia (including me) though I have to admit I don’t frequent the southeastern part of the state very often. Based on the hostels I’ve found before, however, the best spots to have the most people visit are rest areas, or as close to the major highways as you can get them. The tunnel definitely has a lot of foot traffic (and regular traffic) though I don’t know of any good stoping areas before you go through/get out of the tunnel.

Best of luck on your planting mission! I hope you find some place successfully!

There's more than one cemetery in Ohio with hundreds of boxes and most of the groundskeepers know about them and actually replace them when they find them. They are welcomed there. If you don’t want to enjoy these amazing cemeteries or their hidden charms, then don't. I personally love boxing in Ohio's Cemeteries, as I do in every State. I've been to New Bern area 3 times since McGinnisAGAIN moved there and began planting. She has made it an extra enjoyable area with the deep research she does and the wonderful history she reveals with each of her plants. To be making negative comments about places you've never seen or experienced is ridiculous!! And I'm surprised that a simple request from Ryan to remove all boxes from New Bern Cemetery would bring any other response other than "how can I help?"
If I were not still recovering from recent surgery, I'd fly out & get some friends to help me retrieve all these boxes that seem to be doing more harm than the neighborhood school children that I've personally witnessed climbing all over the rock walls and flat roofed tombs at that specific Cemetery. Please don’t make other letterboxers feel bad - just be nice & help them instead. Thank you to anyone who can help remove boxes from these Cemeteries.

Thank you for your comments, very well said & appreciated!!

Thanks but I am checking that box and still keeps signing me out!

What is Hat Day?? I’ve never heard of it 😊

On Hat Day, non-premium members have a chance to record unlisted finds (like boxes that might only be listed on LBNA).

It’s not predicable and not always on the same day, so you have to watch for the theme with all the hats.

Many thanks to Trail Fairy and all the carvers for Mythology and Folklore Galore. We enjoyed reconnecting as well as exchanging with folks new to gatherings. The group thank you for carvers was a great idea.

Also called The King, this Card represents authority, structure, and order.

Will you seek?

I'll be there in June and am bringing LnL's(small), mesh cammo hanging bags, and cammo covered pouches, along with a few small magnetic boxes. Not sure what planting situations I'll encounter, so I'm trying to be ready for anything!

Ohhh that’s good to know. I am not a premium member so I will have to remember that. Thank you 😊

There's a help page about that. =)

For me it's "Don't try to force the location to match the clues". >:-)

Do you foresee a plane ticket in my future to de aur stat?

Same here. Although, you seem to be a step ahead. I just have a rough idea, which really isn't much.

I’m baskically the same. I just was curious if anyone had any unique high snow outdoor ideas

I believe I know exactly where this first "card" is located, but it's about 3,000 miles away! Is there a way to continue? Or has my journey ended?

I thought the same thing..... I was hoping to participate "virtually" and was interpreting clues online and visualizing a tarot card and meanings....

Very well said! I have/had a series of 3 planted at Cedar Grove. I noticed it's been marked impossible. Oh well.

Letterbooks are my favorite!! Do want to make new and/or have any olde letterbooks ready to be passed along for new shelf-life? I'd be very excited to collaborate on letterbook plants in libraries the greater boston area.

Thanks all for the help! It was a problem with my I phone and I was able to correct the saved password now.

pretty much sums up the trump administration.

nothing to smile about here.

Maybe there will be more to come hopefully? Still super fun though.

Well, she HAS rătăcit from oceanul to oceanul for many years...

Hoping she'll plant in Michigan, din iad în paradis.

The Pink Dragon and I made a girl's weekend of it and recovered all that we could find in all New Bern cemeteries. I have marked all we couldn't find as missing. We left a public message on all we recovered. TPD has them all and owners should contact her for return arrangements.

While pulling boxes yesterday, a delightful woman named Helen approached us and asked if we were letterboxers. She works with an organization that helps preserve these historic places and also gives tours within the cemetery. She showed us the grave that started it all. She informed us that organizations like hers are spending thousands of dollars to repair not only graves, but the brick and stone walls in these cemeteries. She personally had no issues with LBs in bushes and trees. However, since these were most often covered with bricks, we recovered those as well, returning the bricks to the nearby walls or graves.

Helen was very impressed by the extensive history included in these particular clues. Then she shared how much fun she and her husband had finding over 60 stamps the previous day. She had seen us poking around from her kitchen window and invited us back to her beautiful home where she had all of the stamps in a bucket. She was hoping to find a way to get them back to the owners.

Before leaving to look for any remaining LBs, she gave us bottles of water and told us to come back to her home if we needed a restroom.

Truly, Helen is a hero for saving all those stamps. She enjoyed it some much, she will likely continue to hunt. I said her trail name should be The Rescuer.

TPD and I have her name and address and plan to send her a thank you notes with some LB love. If anyone would like to do the same, you can PM me for her info.

Great job!! And props to Helen also for sure!

Thank you both so much for recovering the boxes.
