Sorry it's been awhile since my last post; the last few weeks have been crazy. In the middle of it all, though, we've made efforts to make it out to various letterboxes around the state.And, as a part of that, we've finally made our own personalized stamp with a picture and our "trail name" on it. You can see it to the right. In fact, you probably saw it long before you started reading this.
If you can't tell (and if you can't I don't blame you), it's a picture of Italy expertly cut out by Annie, and a block of letters that says "Amanti di Cibo" which means "Food Lovers". Just a quick observation: letters are really hard to cut out.
It was pretty fun to do, and we're really excited to be able to use the stamp on the next letterbox we find.
Additionally, we've in the process of placing our own letterbox. We can tell you it will be somewhere in Tooele county, but you'll have to check out Letterboxing.org or AtlasQuest.com to find out exactly where. (Don't check yet, it'll still be a couple weeks before we get around to placing it. But you can check the sites for other letterboxes.)

i'm amazing...what can i say. the letters do look pretty good too. you can take credit for almost all of them:) i look forward to more letterboxing...tvtb
Very cool. I want you to make for our family with all six of our names written on it. It'll give you good practice. any real reason behind, "food lovers?" I know we all like food but why on a stamp? it does sound romantic though.
That is really really cool! I love your stamp! We will definitely want to come find your box. Let us know when you've placed it.
very nice...i have been thinking about doing some more. i am ticked that i left my book at home. but this will give me a chance to make my own stamp. i want details on the rubber.
That's awesome! I didn't realize that you could just make your own stamp. That is awesome! Good job, guys! And yeah, I'd love to come find your letterbox when you get it placed.
Hmm, if cibo is pronounced Chibo, then that means something very close to "goat lovers" in spanish. I hope that isn't the case ;)
Well, it IS pronounced "Chee-bo", but means food... Maybe we should reconsider it if it has strange meanings in other languages...
