Hey Jamie, "I just wanna be a sheep, baa baa baa baa" well, I know I have probably been called 'dumb' by LBers and Geocachers, as we are continually learning. Isn't life a learning experience? We do have fun with both sports and try to respect all around. I don't like the McToys, but then I don't like them at MacDonalds. We do like finding and tracing GC and TBs and jsut reading in and signing (stamping when I have it too) books. There are so many friendly helpful adventurous people around. Hope we can find the same commeraderie. Blessings to you all. we are just Pilgrims in this Land

hey all, we are letterboxers and geocachers. We have had fun doing both. There is no need to be catty on either side. They really are compatible sport/hobbies. I know some LBers have been upset having their letterboxes removed or parts thereof by geocachers who did not like the letterbox to be there, or simply not understanding the hobby. we have had a couple muggled...and it is frustrating no matter what type of muggler it is, likewise with caches that go missing. I think any 'nasty' type comments from either side are from people who are not fullly aware of the sport. I I 'used' to think that using a GPS was cheating too, until I tried it, mind you the GPS was rather antiquated, but I saw it is cahllenging as well. I am totally intrigued by the camoflouging done, some so good I still haven't found those particular geocaches. The kids like geocaching much better as for them they get a 'prize'. SO we like to do both. I have found some geocachers to be friendly towards our boxes too.Thank You! I have found it rather strange that most geocachers I have treid to connect with re:letterboxing have had no interest in it. To each his own. We are all out there just trying to enjoy creation (and some manmade stuff too) have fun.
