Pathtag and Letterbox stamp

If you are a geocacher, you might find one of these pathtags in a cache. Pathtags are personal trading items, used most often in geocaching.  They are about the size and weight of a US quarter or a one Euro coin. People create a design, have it made and start trading.

This is the pathtag I created for our family with animals that represent us, using our dog's face again, as I did in creating our stamp for letterboxing.  We haven't yet found an actual letterbox, but this is a picture of the log from a geocache/letterbox hybrid we found in Massachusetts.  Each letterbox has its own stamp image that you collect in your own book.  At the same time you create your own stamp and leave that image at the letterbox book.

If you're looking for a new hobby, might I recommend Geocaching.com, Pathtags.com, and letterboxing.org.  Just a few more ways to be creative!
