Here's the clue!

Letterbox 4 in Garland,TX USA

GPS Readings
32 degrees 57'10N
096 degrees 43'56W

* pleasant walk from parking lot to letterbox

DIRECTIONS:
Take LBJ Freeway (635) to Garland.
Exit at Oates Road, go east.
When you get to a stop light at O'Bannion where you see a sign that reads
Audubon Park and Wave Pool, turn right. Follow the road past the Audubon
Park Rec center and Surf and Swim Wave Pool. It will twist behind those
buildings to your left. Follow it past parking areas first near playground
equipment, next past picnic tables. Then it will curve back to the right.
Follow it to a small parking area on your RIGHT (pass the one on your left)
that faces some picnic structures. Park. After you get out of your car,
turn your back on the structures. You are facing the paved trail you want
to be on.
Walk across the grass to it and turn to your left. Soon you will
go under the overpass that carries car traffic. When you come out on the
other side, the paved trail forks. Take the fork that goes off to your
right. It curves around to a bench and shortly after that you'll see a
meadow. Walk past it, counting about 350 paces from the bench, then look
to your right. Very near the paved trail, you'll see three skinny trees,
three stumps, and a couple of broken trees that sort of form a
ring...within the ring leaves hide what you seek.
