"Napoleon Dynamite: Box #3 - Whatever I Feel Like, Gosh!" by The Golden Seven


Fairfax, Virginia

Finds: 10


Box #3 in the series. This one was further down the street. Headed into a park, and it was hidden underneath a bridge. Neat idea. I'll keep that in mind for when I plant some someday.

"Tucked in Tight" by X Marks the Spot


Virginia Beach, Virginia

Finds: 8


We were lucky enough to find a letterbox along the boardwalk at Virginia Beach. We rented a four-wheeled family "bike" and rode the length of the boardwalk and back. This letterbox was ingeniously hidden - a plastic box that actually looked like a utility box. I wasn't even sure if I was looking at the right thing. Fortunately, "X" did mark the spot, and that clinched it for me. (We even found a bonus stamp outside the Howard Johnson.

It was a perfect day to go on a bike ride. Although it was warm, there was a blustery wind which cooled us off and made the ride bearable. However, it did make the water very rough and too cold, and not much fun for swimming.
