An olde English tradition has become increasingly popular in the United States after an article that was published in the Smithsonian in 1998. Have you ever heard of Letterboxing? I hadn’t until yesterday!! My chiropractor told me about after we were talking about Stampin‘ Up! If you like hiking and searching for buried treasure well then this hobby is for you!! Plus you can fill up a journal with all kinds of cool stamps!
Check out www.letterboxing.org for protocol and clues. Choose a trail name, get an on-board journal, choose or make a personal stamp, bring along a pen, a Staz-On or Basic Black ink pad and you’re all set! There are over 20,000 letterboxes in the US to find! Wow!
I’d be interested in hearing if any of you have done any Letterboxing. Post a comment!
