Saturday's Finds

Blue Butterfly and I decided to do some letterboxing on Saturday morning after the big event. We decided to go after four boxes in Tyler while we also ran a few errands...and of course...ate lunch. We started off by going to The Children's Park again because there is a new box there. This one is called THE HEART OF A CHILD. It was easy for us to find, stamp, and rehide.

Next, we headed to the TJC campus to hunt down SOCCER RULES! We made our way to the soccer bleachers and BB headed into the woods to find the box. She looked in what we thought was the hiding spot, but the box was no where to be found. I paced the bleachers and looked into the wooded area, thinking maybe I could spot the box if it had been misplaced. Sure enough, I spotted a camo box a little ways down hill from where it was supposed to be. BB retrieved it and we claimed our prize. After finishing up, she put it back in it's original spot and hopefully it won't get washed away again!

For our third box of the day, we headed to Chick-Fil-A to pick up MMMM! Sweet Tea. We pulled around to the back of the restaurants, but missed our turn into Chick-Fil-A. So, we turned around and headed back and pulled into the parking lot. We were just in time! Someone was pulling out of the designated parking spot that Kpat was leading us to. Once again, BB retrieved the box while I was on the lookout for onlookers. This stamp is a great carving. I'm looking forward to finding more of Kpat's creations.

Finally, it was time for us to head to Rose Rudman park to find RING MY BELL by TX Dragonfly. After we figured out where to park, we enjoyed our stroll through the trail to find this box. I highly recommend this box for anyone visiting Tyler. We really enjoyed our visit at the cancer pavilion and ringing the bell.

That was our day of boxing on Saturday. All in all, it was a fun weekend full of clues, stamps, and ink. Happy Trails!
