Delaney Vineyards Letterbox
This letterbox celebrates Grapevine’s vineyards, and it is located in a wooded landscape adjacent to the Delaney Vineyards, in Grapevine, Texas.
2000 Champagne Blvd., Grapevine, TX
Directions:
From Fort Worth/Mid Cities:
Go North on Highway 121 and exit on Glade Road.
Continue through the intersection going past McDonalds.
Turn right at the first street, Champagne Blvd.
Turn left at the first street, Merlot.
From North Dallas:
Go West on Highway 635 and join Highway 121 South (airport / Fort Worth).
Follow signs to 121 South to Fort Worth. (You will pass the North entrance of the airport.)
Exit on Glade Road.
Make a U turn under the over pass and proceed North on the access road.
Turn right at the first street, Champagne Blvd. Turn left at the first street, Merlot.
Interesting side note: Free tours are given Tuesday through Saturday at Noon, 1, 2, 3, and 4 p.m. at the Vineyards. Each tour lasts approximately 30 minutes. For a reservation, call (817) 481-5668. Saturdays: Open to the public.
Tastings of Delaney’s six different wines are given every half hour starting at 12:30 p.m. and ending at 4:30 p.m. at a cost of $10.00 plus tax per person.
Clues to the Letterbox:
Park in the southwest corner of the lot adjacent to the wooded area. Stand facing the woods in the southwest corner of the parking lot (opposite end of the parking lot from the Delaney building) take a compass reading of 180. You will see a tree with a face on it 14 paces (28 steps) away. Go to that tree and go to the side opposite of the face and take another compass reading of 185. Across the lot, almost back to Champagne Dr is a very large tree with a large verticle hole in the trunk facing you. Go directly to that tree and look inside for your prize.
NOTE: Be extremely careful when removing or replacing this box inside the tree trunk. It is sitting on a very small ledge inside the tree and is very difficult to reach if it falls down inside the tree. However, if that happens, please contact me and let me know so I can rescue it.
As always, “recover well”!
