2 Boxes MIA in Chantilly, VA

Hi! I went in search for two boxes that were planted in eleanor c.
lawrence park in chantilly, va and could not find either of
them...one was supposed to be on the ground near a root system of a
fallen over tree...the other, behind a birdhouse between a cluster of
three pine trees....has anyone else been able to find these and not
find them? Did I not look hard enough or have the boxes been removed
or are they just missing? Any one have any ideas?

There are actually 4 boxes in that park, it's just that the planters
called the parks by different names and two said it was in Centreville
and two said it was in Chantilly. Ellanor C. Lawrence, Bump on a Log
and Two Birders letterboxes are all in the same park. For Two
Birders, the clue page says the link doesn't work. Maybe someone out
there has a copy of the clues and can help out. And Bump on a Log
doesn't tell you how to get to the park because that info didn't
transfer.
I found all 4 boxes in October or November. Sorry, but that's the
closest (calendar wise) that I can get you. The one under the pine
tree may have been caught up in the spring flood because it's on flat
land not too far from the creek. The one under the roots should have
been safe from floods. Did you notice the bench in front of the tree?
It had rubber stamp images on it when I was there. Subtle, huh?
Good luck.

I can tell you that both of the Elleanor C. Lawrence Park boxes were there last July because they were the first two boxes that the Triple V Gang found! At that time we had no problem with them, they were right where the clues said they were.
