corner." Thanks!!

Valentine Letterbox (New England mystery box)

There is nothing ordinary about Valentines Day! explained Randall to his
darling. To rejoice this year, love, Ive hidden a valentine for you to
find. After our hearty dinner of tender Nantucket scallops and saged duck,
well ride a ways up the main road, to the northwest, then head south at the
rocky hollow there near the pond. Not far along, on the right near the
courts, is a lovely place for a picnicanother day. Id love for you to stop
in the southEAST cornertheres a fieldstone wall and a large tree. Ive
tucked your Valentine low in the wall seven paces west of that tree.
Replace it gently and we shall visit it for years to come.

SG, I got to the Valentine mystery site yesterday at 8:50am, needing
to be at work at 9:00, and had a hilarious laugh following Dan and
Melissa's footprints from the day before in the snow as they checked
7 paces from each large tree along that stone wall. It was a
priceless moment for me! Southeast, southwest, whats a few degrees of
compass among friends?

Thanks for a great laugh,
