We Arrive!

On Friday, June 2nd after a great flight, Deanne, Dave, Sue & I hit the Portland area running. We crossed the Columbia River into Washington state to hit a few letterboxes there. The pictures below are from the Columbia Springs Environmental Education Center in Vancouver, WA.


Sue finds the first box of the trip!


Our first photo taken together - thanks to a nearby picnic table and a camera with a timer!

Our First Gathering in Oregon

Thanks to Funhog, the four of us were the guests of honor at a great gathering held at the secret location of the Der Mad Stamper's Spirit of Dartmoor letterbox on Friday evening, June 2. It was a great honor to even be associated with this early, historic letterbox! Of course, we had to solve the clues to find our way to the proper location - no free rides with the Hog - that's for sure!!!



A group shot with Dave, Deanne, Amanda from Seattle, Ryan (Green Tortuga), Marmalade and Mitch (Der Mad Stamper.) Great company or what???



Der Mad Stamper and two fans



A great night with some wonderful friends!



Ain't letterboxing the best?
