Possibly missing. However, I still need to get out there and check.

Your journey begins at DelThorne Park across from the Torrance Cultral Arts Center, and the Torrance City Yard. The park has a dried-up creek. It is a good place for a walk, so beware of watching eyes.

Start from the bathrooms by the basketball court. From the sinks outside the bathrooms, go to the green drinking fountain and down the ramp in front of it toward the playground. With the creek on your left, and the jungle gym on your right, take the paved path over the bridge. Cross onto the rubber paved trail, and follow it right. Go up the hill in front of you, and stop on the path at the top of the hill by the big eucalyptus tree at the top. Put your back against the tree, facing the fence. Take 10-11 steps to the ivy-covered Bogainvillia. The box is against the fence under 3 inches of bark, dead leaves and ivy.

When you are done, please remember to re-hide the box EXACTLY where you found it. and cover it with the leaves, and vines about 2-3 inches, and cover it with pieces of bark.

Also this park offers a half-mile paved path with exercise stations all over the path. It is great for a lazy stroll arond a nice relaxing park, or just a picnic lunch, or a game of basketball or climbing trees, or the jungle gym. I have always enjoyed this park.
