letterboxers revealed

In a recent blog entry I asked, "Who in the World is that?" as you were shown a photo of two smiling faces from years gone by. With the picture was a poll which officially closed today.
The poll also asked "Who in the World is That?" and gave 7 possibilities and a chance to vote.
The results are in. A total of 69 of you voted and here is how the voting breaks down:
  • famous NHRA driver and his spokesperson - 2 votes - 2%
  • dixie & one of those gang members she keeps running off with - 1 vote - 1%
  • those behind the Dharma Initiative on LOST - 3 votes - 4%
  • 2fist4 and Dixie 10 years ago - 31 votes - 44%
  • two hillbillys running moonshine in the back of their hotrods - 14 votes - 20%
  • a curmudgeon and his better half - 11 votes - 15%
  • the Wolf pack leaders before becoming bald and Darth like - 7 votes - 10%
So the voting letterboxing public has done it.
They have revealed 2 letterboxers....
2fist4 and Dixie back 10 years ago. Dixie looking much different nowadays. This picture was unrecognizable even to Mojo.

but thing is...
just maybe the voters see something here.
There are two popular answers...
just maybe these people are both...
the hillbillys 2fist4 and Dixie running moonshine out of the backs of their hotrods 10 years ago... and as far as the 7 who voted for the Wolf pack before becoming Bald and Darth like... now that's funny right there
*chuckle*

Hale on the River

short notice...
but here is Hale on the River
There are still many letterboxes at this small park from the weekend of the Mystery event. This would be a perfect opportunity to meet Hale s Angel and get some fun boxes in one small river park.

to catch a gosox

oh my goodness...
how should I start...
and just how much should I tell?

the beginning?
well, it was already known that GoSox had no "exchanges" and hadn't been to a letterbox gathering. He, himself, says he's just an ole curmudgeon... but after the subject came back in to new light... I asked a question that was followed with this answer that got the interest sparked a bit. Yep... it was a topic of interest and one to have fun with. Mama Wolf seemed pretty determined to call him out into our world of stamping frenzies. gosox played along... teasing us with cooties and doing it more than once... but also making it plain that the only way to catch him was to catch him at a box.

all pretty innocent and fun... no biggy!
The day for the Mountain Mystery & Legends Gathering approached. Everyone had fun... no one put much thought into folks who hadn't signed up for the event except to say how we miss certain Wolves and such. It wasn't mentioned or a big deal that we still wouldn't get an exchange with GoSox.
well, that is until someone went and upped the stakes...
or shall we say... added a whole new dimension of determination.
Oh boy... he had just made it interesting ;)
What lengths am I willing to go to when the aspect of
sheer determination is involved? That was for me to know and GoSox to find out ;-)

to be continued...
