I'm hooked: Here are the clues to my first box. Please add it to the Missouri
Page:
"Forest Park: You Light Up My Life"
St. Louis, MO
Sit at the North end of the lagoon with Samuel Hauck. Reminisce with the good
doctor about old times at the World's Fair.
Imagine the Art Museum in its awesome appearance and glory during The Fair.
If you find it hard to picture the History Museum and the Boat Dock can help
you!
When you tire of your chat and of watching the ducks, a decision must be
made. Which way to travel on Lagoon Drive?
Left? Right? East? West?
No Fear! St. Louie, himself is pointing the way!
You won't walk too far before crossing a gap but in obvious Art Deco Style!
~ 0.2 miles.
(You will even notice a small suspension bridge to the South! But we are not
interested in that!)
Cross to the NW Side of the road.
Walk around the East wing and parapet wall.
What a neat place this was once -- a natural rock lined creek and decorative
bridge.
Keep walking northward. Before reaching the next little golf cart bridge
there is an opening in the brush!
You'll find the box in a crevice of the East bank approximately 6 feet south
of the two tall Bass Trees. Yes, it would have been more appropriate to hide
this container near the Jewel Box.
Please carefully wedge it back into place and lay a slab or two in front of
it to keep it safe during high water.
There is not room for a cache in this one but for the GPS coordinates or to

PS. I am depending on you to keep my first box safe. Please close all
ziplocks carefully and carefully replace her.
Thanks,
