Friday, June 25, 2004 Party
Okay here's the deal:
- Show up by 7 for a walk to a lookout in the woods behind the house. Beautiful view out to Mallet's Bay, the lake, and the Adirondacks. ~1h round trip. If you don't care about this, show up whenever you want!
- bonfire
- keg (Rock Art Ridgerunner, good stuff); donations happily accepted or just bring more booze to share.
- 150 acres of land, bring a tent and camp out. Essex cops can be beastly. Don't try driving home if you plan to have lots and lots of fun.
- Bring bug dope if bugs bother you.
- Bring instruments; my housemate Tyler says he's gonna get his band, the Middle8, and maybe also the Cleary Brothers to play.
- Bring people who you think are interesting, who I don't know or have forgotten to invite.
Directions
Our address is:
75 Brigham Hill Lane
Essex Junction VT 05452
Davi cell phone: 999-8896
Davi, Kate, & Tyler home phone: 879-1615
When driving to my place, watch out for deer, escaped horses, and moose. (I've seen deer and escaped horses; my housemates have seen moose.) It's about a half an hour drive from Burlington.
from Burlington:
- Get onto Route 15 East. You can pick up Rt 15 in Winooski or by getting off at the Winooski exit (Exit 15) on I89.
- Take Rt 15 to Suzie Wilson Road. Suzie Wilson Road will be a left hand turn at a large intersection, after the Officer's Row houses at Ethan Allen (Officer's row is a line of brick houses on your left, ringing a large green lawn adjacent to Rt 15).
- Take a left on Suzie Wilson Road. Get into the middle lane. You'll come to a light at the intersection with Kellogg Road (see map below). Keep going straight, onto the Suzie Wilson Bypass.
- Take the bypass to the end, at its intersection with Colchester Road, and get onto 289. Basically this means just keep going straight through the intersection.
- Take 289 to the "Essex Way" exit, past the Rt 15 exit. (Those of you who know the area might be surprised at this. The reason is because there's construction on Route 15, so this is a detour to get onto Old Stage Road.)
- Take a left at the light at the end of the exit onto Essex Way. Take Essex Way to the end, which will be Rt 15. You'll see a Showtime Video on your right before you get to Rt 15.
- Take a left on Rt 15, and your first right onto Old Stage Road.
- Take the fourth left on Old Stage Road, onto Brigham Hill Road. The road will turn to dirt after a while.
- Take the first left on Brigham Hill Road, onto Brigham Hill Lane. It's a steep hill, that's paved on the steepest part.
- The road turns back to dirt, and you'll see a brick farmhouse on your right, #75, that's us -- a dead black Saab on your left. Back up ~40 feet and pull up into the parking area. Walk a little ways up the hill and find the party, about 100 yards up.

from Boston:
About a half an hour from the Richmond exit.
- 93N to 89N.
- Take Exit 11 (Richmond exit). At end of exit, take right, and then take first right (almost immediately after you get to end of exit) onto Rt. 117
- Follow 117 to 289 and get onto 289 (a right hand turn).
- Take 289 to "Essex Way" exit, and take a right at end of exit.
- Follow Essex Way to its end on Rt 15, and take a left onto Rt 15.
- Follow directions above, starting at "Take a left on Rt 15, and your first right onto Old Stage Road".
