(Jay please add my email down at the bottom)

A Special Snowflake
Josias Byles Sanctuary
Distance: .09 miles
One Letterbox
Location: 0.5 Miles East of Route 44 and 89 Intersection in Ashford.
Across from North Animal Clinic.
Be careful not to block private drive.

This Special Snowflake came to me
from someone I have yet to see.

Yet we share a common bond
that same peculiar sport were fond.

Crossing wet spots, checking rocks,
for the all elusive box.

Hooked on thorns, tripped by rocks,
looking for that certain lair.
That contains a special prize,
Hidden in the Tupperware.

Directions: From the parking lot, go straight.
Apple trees will be on your left, wire fence on your right.
At intersection follow yellow arrow to the right.
Either the deer are real smart and follow the yellow arrows or you are
on a deer trail
Passing threw a pine plantation, the stone wall will be on your right.
At next junction go Right on the road. Then take your next left.
A ravine will be on your right.
When it ends look for two large rocks across the ravine on your right
and two on your left of the path.
Stand between all four rocks. look south.
Spot the tree with three sisters.
Directly behind in the wall is your prize.
Continue along the yellow trail the way you havent been.
Follow the winding trail, left right up and down.
At what looks like an intersection go left. (Its not an intersection
its someones back yard.)
Follow trail over a wall.
Look for a large pine tree on your left.
When you reach the road go right, youll soon see familiar markings.
(And your vehicle.)

Please e-mail comments and how the box is doing.

Hi Letterboxers! Finally after 2 months of Letterboxing, I've placed
my *FiRSt* box, "The Mystical Creature", in Sleeping Giant State
Park, Hamden, CT.!!! Yey! The hike is a bit of a work-out, but the
clues are pretty easy I think. (You can find the clues on LbNa
website, "what's new".)Enjoy the adventure!...Sue/sojourner....
