This letterbox is not suitable for children, except for those who are extraordinarily depressed and, therefore, mute. The location is designed for quiet contemplation, and although the grounds are open for visitors’ use (I checked), noise or frivolity would be tragically out of place.
That said, find 29th Avenue on Spokane’s South Hill. Head south on Regal until you reach 57th, and turn left. Turn right on the Palouse Highway and continue until you reach Jamieson Road; turn left. Continue on Jamieson until you reach a place of peace, and turn in there.
Travel to the top of the drive, which ends at a quiet parking area; park on the west-ish-most end of the lot. There, a friendly monk marks an uphill walkway slightly northwest and to the left. Follow this path to the far end of the building and stop just past a low stone cross; you’re here at this overlook to get your bearings. The round place below is where you’ll be heading next. (For future reference, the path traveling uphill from here leads to a bench from which one can watch, I am told, magnificent sunsets.)
Go back to the monk, and this time, instead of turning right to the parking area, turn left-ish and stop after a few steps to observe a multilingual exhortation to world peace. Step onto black pavement, follow the painted crosswalk to the drive, and travel downhill to the left until you come to the sign for a nature trail. (Printed matter here will detail the peace-inducing use of the round space down the trail.) Walk down the grassy trail, passing the round space and entering woods. Pass a bench above the creek and, 35 to 40 steps later, note a large tree to your left bearing a white ceramic thingamajig. At the base of this tree is World Peace 4. From here you can spot, a bit down the trail, a picnic table of retirement age, which might be a good stamping-in site.
Trouble will ensue if this box is ever discovered. Please, please do not mention it to anyone.
