Memorial Park

Today's blog is going to be short and sweet, mainly because I didn't do very much. I woke up, had breakfast and then went to Memorial Park. I hiked the Mountain Bike Trails and looked for letterboxes. I think I covered all the trails in that area. Some were tricky to navigate with all the rain that Houston has had in the last week but it was okay. I even took about an hour to just hike a couple of the trails without looking for any letterboxes and of course I found one. I was searching for a blue birdhouse (you can ask dewberry about that one - Stop and Look!). While doing this I stumbled across a large glass geocache. I was sitting on the log where the geocache was hidden and I happened to look to the side. I noticed a little raised area between the log and a tree. So I checked it out. And there was a letterbox - much to my surprise - is this what it is like in Dartmoor. By the way - I never found the birdhouse.

I found twenty letterboxes today between 8:30am and 3:30pm. All of them were amazing! I would like to thank dewberry, Astro D, Wills World, Lone Star Quilter & BootsTEX, Bailey's Bunch, SandiBox and TeamKing for all the boxes I found today. Houston really has a large variety of boxers and boxes. I am having a blast.

Sounds like a terrific day! The Houston area does have some awesome letterboxers, don't they.

Have a great day tomorrow!
