The simple pleasures in life are free...... Fun things often cost just pennies..... 25 cents for a balloon that can be blown up and squeaked for miles on the journey to a letterbox! Well we found a simple pleasure in a great rock that a boy just had to climb on to conquer. If you have the need to climb a rock and declare yourself victor head to New York's beautiful Colgate University at Hamilton. Begin at 1819 you can't miss it. Take the shady lane to the top of the hill. We were right with the Alumni and followed the Alumni to Chapel Rd. Along Chapel road we spied the big rock. ( If you drive past there are 2 parking spots just a bit further along ) .

Stand looking at the rock Or stand on the rock if it suits you. With your back to the road look left to the stone wall along to where it curves. Look For a small round rock perched there near a tree whose bark is gone(We couldn't find the tree with the missing bark). There tucked in the wall is your prize but be sure no one sees you take it out, then stamp in and rehide it so it can't be seen. Keep the secret of letterboxing. Gather your pennies and count your blessings the best things in life are free.
