I planted this box in order to get some ideas for a trailname. I just discovered letterboxing early this year and have fallen in love with it. My current trail name (or sign-on, whatever) is kyrasmygsd. Well, that's not very catchy. Since I'm not really that creative, I thought I'd borrow the creative genius of others and see what comes up. So here's a little about myself...
I discovered letterboxing through Dog Scouts of America at last years mini-camp (www.dogscouts.com). I have a German Shepherd, Kyra (pronounced Keira), that is the love of my life. I am a full-time dog trainer. I'm a natural redhead and native Texan. I enjoy hiking, gardening, reading, cooking and the dog.
I hope that will be enough to come up with some suggestions. Please send me at least 3 suggestions for a trail name and I will send you the clue to the box. When I finally settle on a name, I'll send this box out as a hitchhiker!
Thanks.
***update*** I decided I'm going to keep the name I have. When asked, "How do you pronounce that?" I just tell them, "I don't!" :) I'm not going to put it out as a hitchhiker so here are the directions: This box is located in Fossil Creek park at 6101 South Onyx Drive in N. Richland Hills. If you are on Highway 26, take Bonzer and it runs right into Onyx. This park has 2.2 miles of natural surface trails and they are quite pretty. I looked all over for a good spot for a box that wasn’t covered in poison ivy and finally found it on my return trip through the park. Sure enough it happens to be quite close to the trailhead. After the first little ways the trails aren’t trashed (as they appeared to be the day I planted this).
To find the microbox, pull into the park at the first entrance and park in the dirt/grass by the trailhead (marked by the wooden poles and wooden barrier). You will be looking for a tree to your right 64 steps (for a tall person) from the wooden barrier at the trailhead. The tree is right at the edge of the trail and the microbox is hidden on the backside (kind of SW side) of the tree under some limbs/debris.
