Each year, Longview Texas is host to the Great Texas Balloon Race. Each July, the balloons and the visitors arrive for this event. There are vendors, and concerts and much more, but. the balloon glow is my favorite! For more info and this year’s schedule go to www.greatballonrace.com. Thanks to PSGuru for another great stamp!

Great TX Balloon Race

DIRECTIONS: From the intersection of W. Marshall and N. Spur 63 turn west and go about .02 miles. You will see a sign on your right that reads: Paul G. Boorman Trail. Turn right and park in parking lot. This is a fairly new trail that will be expanded in the future. I felt safe there, but you may not want to go alone.

To the box: Follow trail around to Princeton Ave. (another trail) . Turn right and walk to the bridge. Turn around BEFORE crossing the bridge and walk back 11 steps and look right. At the top of the embankment is a small tree. Climb the bank and look behind the other tree directly behind the first tree. You will find your treasure behind the second tree.

Please re-hide well and let me know about the status of the box.
