I decided on Saturday evening that I'd have to get out and go letterboxing today. It's hard for me to get out and letterbox during the fall, and my schedule is busiest in October. Therefore, I knew that if I didn't take advantage of today, it might be a while before I was able to get my fingers inked up!
So, I was ready to leave my house by the crack of 10 and headed to Athens. I visited the Kiwanis Park there and stamped into DON'T ROCKET TIL YOU'VE TRIED IT. This is a nice stamp dedicated to a piece of playground equipment in the park. Next, I headed to Central Park and stamped into the TVCC CARDINAL. I had this particular park all to myself, but decided to go ahead and move along. I went back past the Kiwanis park and visited the Athens City Cemetery. I stamped into UNITED WE STAND and WE REMEMBER.
Next, I headed to Purtis Creek State Park, which was the site of a gathering a few weeks ago. First, I stamped into CATCH OF THE DAY. I was able to get a nice view of the lake while I stamped in, and I knew that MY catch of the day wouldn't smell.....well....fishy! Next, I went deeper into the park and located WATCHING WILDLIFE. After this, I stamped into BEE CAREFUL, UGLY DUCKLING, and JUST DUCKY. I was really impressed with the fun carving of Bee Careful.
After that, I was finished with my finds at Purtis Creek, but knew that I must drive by Goshen Cemetery on my way home. I decided to stop there and stamp into CAPTAIN ZACH'S BOX.
Finally, I gave up letterboxing for the day and headed home. I drove through a couple of towns (unexpectedly) where I KNOW there are some more letterboxes, but alas, they will have to wait for another day.
