I-95 Drive By Box - Chesapeake House
Time - 15 minutes
Difficulty Level - Easy, just up one large hill
Box is wrapped in camo and has no pen and no ink.

Clues:

Driving 95 Southbound:
The Chesapeake House Rest Stop is the first rest stop you come to after crossing into Maryland from Delaware.

Driving I-95 Northbound:
The Chesapeake House Rest Stop is the first rest stop you come to after crossing through the Susquehanna River Toll Booth.

Park at the East end of facility. You will see a picnic area that goes up the hill. Hike up the hill keeping to the right. Once you reach the top continue hiking along the ridge with the tree line on your left. As you near the end of the hill and the trail starts turning a sharp left (lest you hike off the end of the hill) you will see a large Persimmon Tree on your left side which has several smaller trees growing around it. There is also a fallen log almost touching the tree. As you face this tree look to the bottom near the roots. The prize you seek is in a hole in the tree near the ground. PLEASE re-cover and re-hide well.

This box was carved by Carvin' Carmen of H&H for the "Rubbermade Road Rally". We didn't quite know what to do with it when it was returned to us. We decided it made a good drive by box and planted it here!

Now back in your car and off you go, drive carefully!
