This box was the first and the inspiration for our series "Something I'm Thankful For", which was placed for the Western NY Gathering on November 13, 2004. We've been trying to bring a little letterboxing sprite or Highlander into this world for quite a while now, so we decided to place this box outside our NEW doctor's office. When you find it, say a little prayer and keep us in mind!

Depew is essentially east of Buffalo. From the NYS Thruway (I-90), take the Transit Road exit to Depew (Should be #49, just before the main Buffalo tollgate. Turn right on Transit (south) and follow it for about 5 or 6 miles until you get to 4845 Transit Road, a small office complex on your left that has a Quest Labs in it (as well as a few other doctors). Park in the front lot and walk through the space in between the L shaped building until you get to the dumpster in the back (or drive around to the back in your vehicle). The complex is adjacent to a set of apartments, but you don't need to go that far. Check the grass under the shrub/tree near the transformer box to find the letterbox in question.

This is an urban area, so be as careful with this box...well, as you would our own child! ;-) Once you get the box, you can actually sit in your car and stamp without looking too suspicious, but there are windows that look out from both the office complex and the apartments...be careful of who's watching!
