You exist in our memory, my first box.
Rest wherever you may have landed, Jasmine.
Wednesday, 29 September, 2010.

Directions:
This box is in Dick Nichols Park, located in South Austin. To get there from Mopac south, take the westbound William Cannon exit and turn on Beckett Road. Drive until you reach the park, and get out on the right side of the parking lot, if possible. There is a broad concrete path on the right side of the park; get on this path.

Clue:
Walk along the path until you see the tennis courts on the left. Between the path and the tennis courts is a wide dirt trail leading off into the brush. Take this trail. Never turn right; if there is a fork, take the left trail. Keep a mental note of how many times you have passed under a tunnel of trees. Passing under one or two trees does not count, the tunnels always consist of more than three trees and are easy to count. Just keep walking, enjoy the scenery and the loneliness of this area--people rarely take this trail. When you hit the fifth tunnel of trees, there should be a sharp ninety-degree turn in the trail. The ground here is rocky, with big rocks protruding out near the path. In the inside bend of the ninety-degree bend is a large, smooth rock resting atop another rock. Before you lift the rock you think is the right one, check the sides of the rock for markings. The rock which conceals Jasmine’s flower has an “E” on ones side. The box is located in a perfect round hole in the bottom rock. After logging in and replacing the big “E” rock, walk around the whole thing and make sure that there are no gaps between the two rocks that allow a glimpse of the box to be seen. Keep taking the trail, it will spit you out on the sports fields that are on the left side of the park. Happy Letterboxing!

Note:You can come any time of day-this trail generally does not have many visitors.
