Comments: I went to this box alone. Very peaceful and reverent location. Terriffic clues! But, scary as hell for a single woman to go alone in near darkness. I was berating myself for going here alone, telling myself how stupid I was and just plain freaking myself out, when all of a sudden there was a huge crashing sound! EEK! Scared me even more! Turned out it was a deer running across the path, not a pyscho-killer. Whew. I'm not cut out for boxing alone in the woods. I have to stick to the urban boxes for that!

M-166's Scenic Gem

Find #: n/a
Comments: Another box that I went to alone. Again, I found the place, couldn't break the code. I used to think that I was good any ciphers and such. But apparently not! This place is truly a gem, though. Gorgeous location. I'll keep working on it and figure it out eventually!

Comments: I went out alone to find this box but failed in the attempt! I found the place and tried for a long, long time to break the code, to no avail. One of these days I'll figure it out. It has been found since my attempt, so it must be doable!

Sunshine Box

Find #: n/a
Comments: I went to this one alone. I figure out that I'm not a huge fan of solo-boxing! I left a message with my whereabouts on my answering machine "Just in Case", but I wasn't thrilled about the added dangers (real or perceived) of being alone in the middle of "nowhere" without anyone really knowing where I was. I was able to find the right place for this box and the right "general area of hiding spot" but I couldn't find the actual box. I think the heat, the bugs and my nerves contributed to me giving up earlier than I should have. Someone else found this box a few weeks after me, so it's definitely there! I'll have to go back sometime.

Comments: Awesome stamp! Really fun mystery box. Lots of pre-find work to find the location, but well worth it. Very creative and ingenious placement of this box. There's supposedly a geocache nearby, but we couldn't find it. Part of PennyPenny's playground/park series. This place has an awesome play structure.

Time Waits for No Man
Location: Mystery, Macomb County, MI
Planted By: DoubleDragon
Find Date: undisclosed
Find #: 24
Comments: Lots and lots of pre-find work on this one, but well worth it. DoubleDragon planted this especially for me! Okay, not really. She had it ready to plant and hadn't gotten around to it. But since I posted a note on the Great Lakes message board specifically looking for a cemetery box in this area, she was motivated to get the clues posted. The stamp is awesome. I highly recommend this box! Found the Snappin' Memories hitchhiker in this box, too.

Michigan Hitchhiker Hostel

Find #: 4
Comments: Really clever clues for this location, PoPo figured out where to go. Very cool stamp! Much longer walk than I expected. We went here specifically to find our first hitchhiker and were bummed to find none in this box. Someone didn't read the rules! Bastards. ;)
We did leave one behind, anyway.

Comments: This was my first find! I'm very proud of this find because it is a mystery box. The clues are pretty much all pictures. We found this box at a completely different time of year than the time it was planted. The area looked much different with the plant growth so it was hard to find some of the land marks. Had to brave poison ivy and patrolling police cars for this box.
