We found The Happy Camper yesterday. It is located in a lovely city
park not too far from my house. The day was overcast and warm, but
not a sauna that this area can be.

The city is doing construction to the base area of
Lewis & Clark so sitting on Seaman's tail is
impossible right now, but we got close enough to
extrapolate which tree we needed to find from that
point. We went through all the steps despite knowing
where the final clue is without even walking downtown.

I don't think that I've ever read the sign and there was a cute
little frog at the base of it--my son has never seen a real frog
before! That was really exciting for him.

This was a fun box--I'll return once I get a personal
stamp carved. It's been a while since I boxed; I'd forgotten how
long it takes to pull everything out and look at it, stamp up, and
get it all back together...all without attracting attention! There
weren't too many people around, though.

We stopped at our favorite neighborhood pub for dinner of fish &
chips on the way back--finally got there early enough to get them hot
from the fryer! Yum!
