Letterboxing
Have you ever heard of Letterboxing? Letterboxing is a fun outdoor activity for all ages. It is similar to geocaching. Visit the website to see where letterboxes are placed locally or throughout North America. With letterboxing, you create your own personal journal and stamp. Once you have used a letterbox clue to find it, you simply stamp the boxes journal with your stamp and then use the boxes stamp to put in your personal journal. Visit the letterboxing networking website.
