We drove back to the coast – to the southwest corner of Washington.
Today’s agenda was letterboxing. In case you don’t already know, letterboxes
are hidden boxes containing a logbook and stamp found by following a set of
clues. Barbara enjoys letterboxing and
this area has quite a few. We could
probably spend a week here just letterboxing, but in the interest of time Barbara
chose to target a few highly recommended boxes.
It is hard to express how much Barbara appreciated the first
series – the quality and creativity of the clue, box, hiding spot, and logbook
were phenomenal. Two special additional treats: meeting the
planter of the letterbox and encouragement from Judy, the marvelous woman
Barbara letterboxed with a month ago.
After lunch Bill and Barbara headed for another
letterbox. Barbara ended up needing to
rest in the car. When Bill arrived back
at the car, what did he have, but the letterbox. Another beautifully crafted box!
Here are a few pictures from the rest of the day as we
explored the Long Beach
peninsula.
