**Just replaced this box after previous box went missing due to a total reconstruction of this visitor center. ** New visitor center is REALLY nice so enjoy the facility. We are back celebrating our 19th Anniversary! So will update our family info now also, even though it does not help with the clue anymore.

This box has been placed in honor of my parents. We met here in Branson, along with 29 other family members to celebrate their 40th Anniversary. In Dec 2008. I am the youngest of 5 children and I am so proud to be part of this family.

Clues:
To find this beautiful hand-carved stamp, you'll first need to find the Dewey Short Visitor Center and Table Rock Lake Office. It is located just South of the Table Rock Lake Dam on Hwy 165. The area is open from 6am to 10pm and serves as a trailhead as well as a picnic area with a great view of the Lake and Dam. And trailhead for some nice paved walking trails.

Once you enter the facility, park and find your way to the back side of the visitor center. Starting near the dam, walk to the very last fence post going past the building going away from the dam. At this point, walk down the sidewalk to the 40th crack. (Being careful not to break your mother's back!)

At the FORTIETH crack, just look to your right under some rocks in front of a redbud tree. The special rock is about 18" wide at largest point and is a quadrilateral that is shorter on one side compared to the other. A large triangular rock is right beside it. Be watchful as can be a high traffic area.
