~Well, my birthday is finally here and I am one!!!!! My birthday box was placed in a very special place to me. You see, it was placed at the first place I was able to run "leash free". I just love to do that. It is so much fun to run along the beach and splash in the water and chase my "big sister"-(Baby D). I am actually bigger than her, so I should be the big sister now... Anyway, that is more of my getting distracted. I am going to try and curb that now that I am older 80)

You will need markers and a tide chart to get this box.

Start at the entrance to Bluff Point State Park. Park in the parking lot and begin walking down the wide main path along the water, staying to the right at Y intersections. Keep going until you see the opening for Bushy Point Beach on the right (this will be right before the restrooms on the left). Go right here and start walking along the beach until you reach Bushy Point. At low tide you will be able to walk across to Pine Island, which is where you want to go.

Once you are on Pine Island, start walking in a clockwise direction and very quickly you will see a faint path going uphill. Take this path. It is a bit overgrown at the beginning. Go to the top of the hill and you will see a small clearing before you with a fire pit. Continue on the path to the next large boulder on the left side of the path. Stop here. Go to the Southeast, backside of this boulder to find my box. It is buried well, as my "Dad" helped.
Please be sure to put it back in the same spot and cover it well. I wouldn't want it to go missing!!!

I hope you have fun splashing in the water, chasing seagulls, chewing crabs, oh..and finding the box.
