"Poet's Choice" by Paper Trail

Rutherford Park

Annandale, VA

Finds: 34

Attempts: 5

Back to somewhere familiar. Good old Rutherford Park, which has become a favorite for us. The boys love the playground there, and they also love going to the stream and throwing rocks in, just like I liked to do as a little girl.

I was alone this evening, on my way home from work. This was a quick dash in, log in, and get out. And there was a storm brewing. I barely got back to my car before the rain hit.

"Flying Dolphin" by Dolphin Seeker

Annandale, Virginia

Finds: 31
Attempts: 4


The side of Braddock Road in this area is very popular for letterboxes. I actually attempted this box a while back, but found only an empty box and plastic bag. I contacted the owner and I guess they replanted it, along with a 2nd box.

From experience, I knew not to walk UP the hill from Wakefield Chapel Road. Although in all fairness, it was probably more difficult because I was pushing a stroller that time.

Benjamin was finally interested in stamping in the books - maybe because they are fun stamps!

"Dr. Frankenstein's Boxes: by Rich

Falls Church, Virginia

Finds: 29
Attempts: 4

ATTEMPT!!!

Was disappointed to not find this box. The clues were very clever. Pieces taken from other clues and stuck together, just like Frankenstein's monster. I was off to a good start, but was unable to find the tree for box one. There was however, obvious evidence of a recently downed tree and I couldn't help but wonder if that was it.
