While in Oregon, we introduced John and Carley to the art of Letterboxing.
Then we ran into Ken and Mary from Fresno and they love it too.
Letterboxing is much like geo-cashing, yet without the "GPS". It is a glorified scavenger hunt.

Letterboxing is an intriguing pastime combining artistic ability with "treasure-hunts" in parks, forests, and cities around the world. Participants seek out hidden letterboxes by cracking codes and following clues. The prize: an image from a miniature piece of art known as a rubber stamp—usually a unique, hand-carved creation.
Letterboxers stamp their discoveries in a personal journal, then use their own rubber stamp, called a signature stamp, by stamping it into the logbook found with the letterbox, perhaps writing a note about the weather or their adventures in finding the letterbox.
I wonder who else does letterboxing?
