Looking Through Old Magazines

I have been looking through my old magazines -- find what I was keeping it for and then tossing in the recycle bin at school.
I came across an article, this will tell you how long it has been since I have cleaned my magazine rack, on "circle journey." (website: http://www.circlejourney.com/ideas/index.asp ) It seems to be something like a journal that you share with others. This is what the article in Woman's Day, Dec. 6, 2005 page 14:
" 1. Join together. Gather a group. Fewer than 10 people works best.
2. Book it. Pick a journal or scrapbook that's small and durable enough to go through the mail....
3. Choose a theme. 'The hardest part of a project is sometimes just coming up with an idea,' says Stanley. To make it easier to craft, brainstorm themes such as favorite quotes, travel spots, or life goals.
4. Give direction. Outline instructions on the front page or the life goals.
5. Send it off. To mail, enclose in a plastic bag and pack in a sturdy box. The organizer can keep the journal or each member can get her own book to hold onto when it's finished." Debbe Geiger

I thought this sounds like a great idea for the grandkids to be able to keep in touch with Isabela. What do you think?
