You know how you just seem to accumulate a bunch of stamps from various occasions and they just sit around and do nothing but take up space. I have a basket that I dump them all into, the ex-postals, the ones that I carved because I just liked the clipart, the ones I planned on using for something but never did and frankly, I just need to get rid of them and use the space for new useless stamps.
And you know how some people who letterbox think that the stamp and logbook should represent the area where they are hidden? They won't hunt for a silly little stamp unless it is historic or they brag that a tourist could find all of the highpoints of their town just by following their letterboxes?
Well, this series is to say - I don't care! I need to empty my basket so I am going to plant a series of stamps totally irrelevant to the area that they are in and those who are a bit particular just don't need to look for them.
And with this introduction, I am posting my first three Empty Basket Series letterboxes. Watch for more to be posted as soon as I find just the right spot for my useless stamps!

This stamp was originally carved in honor of those who went down in Flight 93 on 9/11. It was intended to be placed near the site of the actual wreckage. The Immobile One has no problem stopping at this site whenever we are in the area but he has no patience with my se

Why can't I read your clues?

To Clueless in Illinois,
I am unable to respond directly to you because you didn't include an email address in your question. Do you mean that you can't see ANY clues? If so, then I can't help you. If you mean that you don't know what the clues say, it is in code and your job is to decode it.
