Planted by Laura

This is my first box to be planted. It is NOT a hand carved stamp. When I saw this stamp at the store I finally knew what my theme for this box would be. This box is to commerate my first year with Lyme Disease. This is something that my husband has had twice in the past years and has had it reoccur twice as well. I have only gotted infected this spring, while looking for a place to plant my first box!!!
This box is just to remind everyone that Lyme Disease is not something to fool around with-it can kill you if left untreated. My symptoms started with an aching jaw so I went to the dentist-no help. Then I got the rash and knew what was wrong. Remember to please keep your eyes open and your DEET usually does help to repel ticks as well as those other pesky critters!

This box is an easy 15-20 minute round trip walk.

DIRECTIONS: Enter Ninigret Park from the main entrance off of Route 1 in Charlestown, RI. At the tennis courts turn left and follow the main road around to the intersection after the basketball court. Turn left here driving between the basketball court and the playground. Follow the road to the first intersection, park on the right side of the intersection in front of the two rocks with NALF CHARLESTOWN and FIRE HOUSE TOWER painted on them.

Find the tarred road at 20 degrees and follow this road. This road turns to the right-stay on it. It will eventually narrow and become a dirt road. Continue following this road until you reach the next paved intersection. At this intersection stand at the beginning of the road that goes to the left-walk due east about 57 paces to 3 rocks. Look under the north side of the middle rock to "Feel Better".
