Since my daughter is playing soccer at several different parks this year, I decided to place a few boxes in some of them, thus combining pleasure with pleasure. This one is at Lindsey Lyons Park, which has 12 baseball fields, two football fields, 20 soccer fields, a barbecue pavilion, two playgrounds, picnic tables, rest rooms, and a concession stand with a pavilion. I also discovered a wooded area with a trail, where this microbox can be found. This is a new stamp in a different location from the first Lindsey Lion box, so should be considered a new box.

Directions:

Take Hwy 59 north from Houston to Beltway 8. Go East on Beltway 8 to Wilson Road. Turn North on Wilson to Atascocita Rd. Turn East on Atascocita Rd to Ygnasio Dr (Rehab Rd on some maps). Turn South on Ygnasio and drive about .5 mile to Lindsey Lyons Sports Complex Park Entrance on the left. Enter and drive southeast to farthest parking area and park by restrooms.

Clues:

Walk on sidewalk southeast through the #10-#13 baseball diamonds. Continue to the end of the sidewalk as it bends east beyond the right field fence of field #13. Continue a little south of east (100 degrees) across grass for about 100 yards to an opening in the woods. From a large pine tree, look left for a dirt trail heading north into the woods and follow it for about 60 steps. Turn left and walk between 2 pine trees to a palmetto 20 steps off trail. From the left side of the palmetto, continue walking 5 more steps to 2 more pine trees. Walk between them for 2 more steps to a small multi-trunk tree. The camo microbox is on the back side of the tree hanging about 4 feet off the ground. Please replace as described.

NOTE: Always take adequate precautions (such as prodding with a stick and/or wearing gloves) before reaching into dark crevasses and holes in the wild. Before you set out read the waiver of responsibility and disclaimer.
