----------------------------------

Directions from central Austin:

Take your best route to US 183 North.
Get off at the McNeil exit and head east (right).
Pass three lights and take a left at the next street,
	which is Blackfoot (this is the first street
	after Sonic).
Go through 2 stop signs and turn left at the
	next street, which is Potters Trail.
The house is the 4th on the left (7323 Potters Trail).

----------------------------------

Directions from east of Austin (including Houston):

Take either US 290 or "10 to 71" to US 183 in Austin.
Head north on US 183 (towards Lampassas).
You will go through lights until you approach 35, at
	which point, US 183 will become a real expressway
	(with overpasses, no lights, etc.).
About 8 miles after the last light, take the exit for
	McNeil and go right (east) on McNeil.
Pass three lights and take a left at the next street,
	which is Blackfoot (this is the first street
	after Sonic).
Go through 2 stop signs and turn left at the
	next street, which is Potters Trail.
The house is the 4th on the left (7323 Potters Trail).

----------------------------------

Directions from south of Austin:

Take I-35 north past downtown Austin.
Take exit 240B (US 183 north - towards Lampassas).
After about 7.5 miles, take the exit for McNeil and
	go right (east) on McNeil.
Pass three lights and take a left at the next street,
	which is Blackfoot (this is the first street after Sonic).
Go through 2 stop signs and turn left at the
	next street, which is Potters Trail.
The house is the 4th on the left (7323 Potters Trail).

----------------------------------

Directions from Round Rock or north of Austin (1):

(via 1325.  This route is not as quick as the set of
directions given next in this list, but all the turns
are clearly marked and have lights, so it's harder to
get lost.  It usually has more traffic than the old
McNeil route given next.)

Take I-35 south to exit 250, marked "FM 1325"
	[Garden Ridge is on the right at that corner].
Exit.  The right turn at the light on the access road
is labelled
        45       to
                1325
Go right (west) on state route 45.
After 0.6 miles, you reach the first light away from I-35.
The street signs read
              <- FM 1325
            La Frontera ->
Turn left (south) onto FM 1325.
At a light labeled "Wells Branch" on the left and
	"Howard" on the right, you will turn right.
	[Abbott Labs is on the right at this corner.
        You may see bison in front.]
This road becomes named McNeil after a short while
	(you won't notice any difference.)
Pass McNeil High School on your left (there are
	TWO lights at McNeil High School).
Go through the light at Parmer. [Texaco on the right
	at this intersection.]
Pass two lights (not including Parmer) and turn right
	at the next street which is Blackfoot
	[If you pass the Sonic, you've gone too far.]
Go through 2 stop signs and turn left at the next
	street, which is Potters Trail.
The house is the 4th on the left (7323 Potters Trail).

----------------------------------

Directions from Round Rock or north of Austin (2):

(via old McNeil Road.  It's more direct, but easier to
miss turns.  Also, old McNeil, also called McNeil-Round Rock,
often has people recklessly speeding down it.  Oh, and
the cops stake it out for speeders.  It usually has less
traffic than the 1325 route given above.)

Take I-35 south to exit 252, the exit for 620 and McNeil Road.
Go straight through the light at 620.
Turn right at the next light, which is McNeil-Round Rock
	(they label it this way to differentiate it from the
	other half of McNeil Road)
Go straight on McNeil-Round Rock until you can't go straight
	any more and turn right.  This will put you on the
	regular McNeil Road.
Pass McNeil High School on your left (there are
	TWO lights at McNeil High School).
Go through the light at Parmer. [Texaco on the right
	at this intersection.]
Pass two lights (not including Parmer) and turn right
	at the next street which is Blackfoot
	[If you pass the Sonic, you've gone too far.]
Go through 2 stop signs and turn left at the next
	street, which is Potters Trail.
The house is the 4th on the left (7323 Potters Trail).

NOTE for folks using these directions: when going home, you
will need to be very careful not to miss the left turn
onto McNeil-Round Rock from McNeil Road.  It is not marked,
does not have a light, and is very easy to miss.  The way
you find it is to pass the two lights at the high school and
take the next left.  That is McNeil-Round Rock.

If you miss the turn, simply continue on and use the
directions for the 1325 route to go home.

Daniel, clerk
