Letter-boxing, that is how the stamp carving started. I just love this hobby for so many reasons. I love that we often see places we never would have seen had it not been for fellow letterboxers planting wonderful boxes in those special places. I also love that I always get a little memento to bring home with me to remind me where I have been. Here are a few pics of our most recent letterboxing adventures, we made some great finds with very memorable stamps hidden inside!!

| Purple Heart | planted by Papa Bear |
| Parrot Rifles: before and after planted by | flintoid |
This box was found in the Smithsonian Zoo... too cool!!
| DC Zoo: Black Crowned Night Heron | planted by Melissa and Ben |
This is one of those places we would not have seen had it not been for letterboxing. It was at a beautiful park called Sandy Bottom. We spent a little time there walking around and taking pictures of a beautiful lake.
| Fishy planted by | The Coasties |
| Three Sails | planted by TheFabFourofWFNC |
| Iwo Jima D.C. | planted by Troop Boxer |
This little box allowed me to have a wonderful little reminder if where I had been.
Thanks to all of the letterbox planters!!
Thank you for the pic of your family finding Three Sails! We planted another while visiting that area-in Colonial Williamsburg and had a blast doing it! Happy hunting!
