For more than thirty years, Lucille Ball was one of the most recognized and loved entertainers in the world. Known to all simply as Lucy, she portrayed a scatterbrained housewife with the ability to turn simple chores into unparalleled fiascoes. Clumsy and unsophisticated at nearly everything she tried (and she tried nearly everything), the television Lucy won the hearts of average Americans across all social and cultural lines with her wacky schemes. It was Ball’s wide range of experience and talents that made her such a success in this role.

Clue:
Enter Dufrense Park in Granby from the east side at 33 Kendall Street. Across the parking lot from a white gazebo is a trail map board to give you the lay of the land. To the left of the sign, enter the woods on white. Shortly you will see a square rock seat in the path with a pond on the right. Up a short hill, stay going straight where yellow trail bears left. At the intersection at the top of the hill go right onto red. The red dots are sprayed over with black paint, hard to see. You will head down into a valley. At the bridge there will be a pond on the left and a stream on the right.

Cross the bridge to get a better view downstream. See a large brown tree fallen over the brook in the distance, it has a very large rock covering most of it's exposed roots. Retrace your steps back over the bridge, then turn left to follow the brook to the fallen tree. Go behind the tree, then 6 ft along its trunk to where it passes a large evergreen. Lucille is under the fallen tree at this point under large chunks of bark that have fallen.

Go back the way you came, or complete the loop by doing the following: return to the path, take a right over the bridge and up the hill. At the T go right onto the blue trail. At the next fork go right onto yellow/red. This exits to the dog/horse play areas, and eventually to the playground. To the right is a large pond surrounded by evergreens. Circle this pond clockwise to get back to the parking lot.

Note: Holy Thursday and 444 Rings letterboxes are also in this park.
