HAS BEEN REMOVED FOR FIXING PURPOSES. WILL BE REPLACED ASAP 8/2/10
DRIVING DIRECTIONS: It is on East Street in Uxbridge, MA. You can get to it by going on 122 and taking a turn on Albee rd. Then, you take a left turn onto East Street. Go until you see a sign that says Kempton rd. That means your close. Look closely to your right and you will see an opening to a trail and a red warning sign. Don't worry, it is still legal to walk on this path. If you don't know how to get to Albee rd from 122, MapQuest will be your friend.
TO THE BOX: Park your car to the side of the road. Enter the trail at the red warning sign. Walk 20 paces (pace=1 step). To your right, you will see an area that once was a small, muddy pond, but is now dried up. Keep going until you see that the trail is getting a little rocky. When you look to your right and see another part of the dried up pond, you will know to count your paces again. After 70 paces, look to your right. You will see a fallen tree sandwiched between to standing trees and a big rock. Follow the fallen tree into the woods. Don't worry, there is no poison ivy, last time we checked. At the end of the fallen tree, you will see a standing tree that is forked into two trees. Look strait ahead and to the left. You should see a tree with four trunks, unless the dead one falls off. Then there will be three trunks. Look in and around the tree (the letterbox may have fallen) for your prize.
When you get back on the trail, there is a big pond in front of you! If you are lucky, you will see frogs and tadpoles! I used to hunt for them with my friends there all the time. (The pond is dried up in the fall)
PLEASE REHIDE WELL.
THERE IS NO INK PAD PROVIDED. PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN.
BRING BUG SPRAY.
NO LITTERING.
This is a very short stroll. It should take about 10 minutes not including stamping time. Please contact me if there is anything wrong with the box.
HAVE FUN!
