Harrington’s View in Bolton, can’t miss it.
Please tell us about where and how you found it
My father and I have been hiking in Bolton for years, and he knows the area very well. But he had never taken me to Harrington’s View, and since neither of us are working right now due to the COVID-19 crisis, we went up there today. My father knew about the stones but had never seen one before. We looked up the website and decided to contribute our experience with the Samstone. A beautiful day, a beautiful view, and a beautiful way for Sam to be remembered.

Castle Canyon Trail, Mount Hood National Forest, Oregon
Please tell us more about where and how you placed it
This hike was brutal and involved more climbing than hiking. After what felt like a great journey I got to the top of this trail and saw a beautiful view. As I started to walk down I found this stone neatly placed at the top. At first, I thought it was someone’s own personal stone they lost, then after looking at the website, I thought it was an advertisement…I never anticipated that it would represent so much about someone.I think I’m going to keep the stone and bring it on hikes with me and take a photo of it at the top of every hike. (I’ll upload them here). Then, when I feel like I climbed something that is truly worthy, like a mountain, I will leave the stone there and let someone else take Sam on a journey of the outdoors.

I didn’t take a photo of the stone on the hike, but here is a link to some photos I took on the hike. https://www.instagram.com/p/B-QUAVcpYUg/

John,

I hope you’re all well. Sue and I went for a break in Malaga a few weeks ago and I left a Sam Stone on the wall of the , which is a large medieval castle on the heights in Malaga. We had a great break, warm and dry weather, a contrast to the UK at the time.

I find the SamStone next to a picnic table at cooks beach, in New-Zealand. I thought that it was a marketing idea to advertise for the Hobbiton village at Matamata because of the name. Happy to find it ! I will take it with me for a while until find an interesting place to drop it off.

JADE EMPEROR PAGODA – vietnam

Posted by: samstone @ 8:26 am

Brynn and Carl gave a samstone to their freind Ben.. this is what he wrote

Dear Brynn, How are you doing? I am so excited about Samstone and his touching story. Let me send you some pictures that I released Samstone inside the pagoda name CHUA PHUOC HAI as known as JADE EMPEROR PAGODA.
Furthermore, In Vietnamese beliefs, everything inside pagodas or temples have the protection of god, buddha. Therefore, I hope Sam will have the protection of the sky god ( Ngoc Hoang ) also from the Buddha.
I wish Sam all the best and you too Brynn.
Ben.
