Another amazing day!


Hello! We had so much fun today! We got to go swimming with Happy Bunnyfeet and Theaterchikita! We dove off the diving board and everything! Amelia was a little scared, but Happy Bunnyfeet held her hand they jumped off together. After swimming for a little while, we dried off and went letterboxing! We went down near the Albany International Airport to a place called Anna Lee Pond. It is in Colonie, NY right next door to the Shaker Settlement. We found 7 boxes tonight! We walked through all these trails and found the Box series called " A Bird for Every Season". It was alot of fun, but oh so buggy!
Oh, we met a new friend today! his name is Ice Bat, He is a boxing buddy that came to stay with Drama mama and Theaterchikita. We had a lot of fun running through the leaves and finding all those boxes! When it was time to go home, mamaladybug drove through the Shaker Settlement and we saw turkeys and these huge oxen out in the field - mamaladybug wanted to take our picture with them, but we were too scared to get out of the car.

Tomorrow we will be leaving on vacation, we are going with mamaladybug and Happy Bunnyfeet to The Great Sacandaga Lake where they have a camp. We will be sure to take lots of pictures!

Here is a picture from today, that's Happy Bunnyfeet on the left (in yellow) and Theaterchikita is on the right (in white) we are standing in the last box of the series!
We will check in when we come home from vacation!

Love, Amelia & Abigail

Farewell to Abigail & Amelia

We had a wonderful time hosting BB Abigail and Amelia. We went on lots of trips together looking for letterboxes everywhere. Some we found and some we didn't. But we always had fun doing it and discovering new places!

We even got to go to a mini-gathering held at Salmon River State Forest in East Hampton and meet many letterboxers from CT. Abigail & Ameilia even got to meet Rubaduc & Gizz in person!!!

Sadly, the time came when Abigail and Amelia was to leave and return to Ohio. We hope they enjoy their visit with us. And hope they get to go to a lot of new places in the future.

Thanks so much for spending the Summer with us!

Hugs,
Sally-O & Happy Penguin

Penwood State Park


July 16, 2008
Dear Fellow Boxing Buddies,

Today, we went to Penwood State Park in Bloomfield, CT. We went with Sally-O, Happy Penguin,& Brawl, as well as three letterboxing friends that we made, Rose, Monalu & Mythlore.
We went looking for more of Rubaduc's boxes there. We found a total of six boxes there!

We went by Lake Louise and Shadow Pond and took a dip there to cool off. It was a beautiful day for boxing. Our favorite box that day was "Is it a Duck?" Here you see a picture of our young boxing buddies: Mythlore, Monalu, Happy Penguin & Brawl. We saw many interesting fungus. Here you see us under a giant fungus. Isn't it cool!

Abigail & Amelia
