Did you hear about those crazy cats that are headin up to AK to hone their mountaineering skills? No? Well here's your chance to get up close and personal with some of them before you have to place bids for their autographs on E-bay 
WHO: Anybody and everybody
WHAT: Sendoff Bash / Jam session
WHEN: 4.18.08-4.20.08
WHERE: "THE CAVE" - Proctorsville, VT
WHY: Stop asking foolish questions
I figure it'll go something like this...
- Friday night people roll in, we order in a bunch of food, most likely there'll be some jammin going on
- Saturday people recreate doing whatever wherever
- Saturday night potluck dinner, entertainment provided by Grey Knob and the Bluffs, and there'll be a fire out back
- Sunday winds down the weekend
How to get there:
373 Bailey Hill Road
Proctorsville, VT 05153
White house, White truck, HUGE White propane tank surrounded by a lot of smaller White propane tanks.
PM me for my Cell Phone # if you like.
A few of the more popular routes...
Coming down 89 or 91 South:
- If you are coming down 89 South then take it to White River Jct. and get on 91 South take exit 8 Ascutney
- take a RIGHT at the bottom of the ramp onto Rt. 131
- in about 8 miles you will come to a four way intersection with a flashing red light STOP and then proceed straight through the light
- in about 8 miles you will come into a 35 mile/hr. school zone and on your left will be DEPOT St. take that left follow to the end (about 1/2 mile, you will go over a set of railroad tracks)
- take a left at the end of the road then take an immediate hard right up Bailey Hill Road
- you’ll go by a cemetery and my house is the second driveway on the right (about ¼ mile), remember the theme is WHITE
Going up 89 North:
- go to White River Jct. and get on 91 South and follow the above directions - trust me, it's a LOT easier and the same amount of time as going through Sunappe and Claremont even if it is more distance
Heading up 91 North:
- get off exit 6 Bellows Falls
- take a left at the bottom of the ramp onto Route 5
- follow Route 5 which will turn into Route 103, you will have to take a right towards Ludlow/Rutland just before the Jiffy Mart (about 13 miles)
- follow Route 103 for about 9 miles, when the road splits into two lanes and gets steep, you are almost there
- at the top of the hill the road will merge back into a single lane and head down a slight hill, at the bottom of the hill (about 1/2 mile) there will be a left hand turn that is Bailey Hill Road, I am the second driveway on the right past the cemetary (if you go too far and miss Bailey Hill Road you will go over a set of railroad tracks, turn around and I'm the third turn on the right AFTER the railroad tracks)
Coming over from NY:
- if you are on Route 4 take a right where it intersects with Route 7 South, if you are on Route 7 South follow down through Rutland and head out of town
- take a left at the intersection of Route 7 and Route 103 (there will be a traffic light) and follow Route 103 South down through Ludlow
- about 3 miles outside of town you will go by the Cavendish Point Hotel (white hotel on your left) and then over a set of railroad tracks
- take the third road on your right after the railroad tracks, Bailey Hill Road (the road is split at the beginning, take the hard right up the hill otherwise you’ll wind up in the sawmill)
- you’ll go by a cemetery and my house is the second driveway on the right (about ¼ mile)
As was the case last year there is plenty of room for parking and camping and I can accommodate around 25 in the house - the beds are all spoken for but with a bag and a sleeping pad you'll be comfortable.
