We are located approximately 2 hours from Richmond, Roanoke, Danville, and Culpeper. Most GPS will get you here. Feel free to call 434-282-8461 if you need assistance. Warning the last mile to the house has poor signal on the road.
Parking: There is ample parking at the house.
Accessibility: The workshop is part of our home. As a result it does not have the handicap features of a public building. However the deck does have a ramp, please honk on arrival and get assistance using it. It is wide enough for a standard wheel chair or walker, but steep. The restroom is spacious and the toilet is high but not full handicap height, no rails. All our doorways are wide.
Snow date: I have reserved March 7 as the snow date. If there is bad weather please check here for news of any change.
No Gifts, this is not a birthday party. I am just using my birthday to share what I do with everyone I know.
