We are about 10 miles away once you turn off Hwy 45 at the Sprint Cross Roads Gas station (at the only Stop Light in Hamilton, MS). At about 7 miles up, the road splits. Go left up on Grubbs Springs Rd for about 3 miles. The road sign is not clearly visible so JUST VEER LEFT AT THE FORK IN THE ROAD onto Grubb Springs RD. When you are approaching our drive, you will pass a large, empty fenced in area, then a single family dwelling, then a wooded area with small family cemetery. Once you pass this, our driveway turn in is a very sharp right turn (again, wooded, so wonβt see until you are up on it). Our mailbox is numbered. There are actually three mailboxes there. If you pass the driveway/private road, you will see nice brick home on your right. There is a turn-around drive way just past that house, but on the left side of the road.
WE ARE BACK IN THE WOODS SO YOU WILL NOT FIND US UNTIL YOU DRIVE UP OUR LONG DRIVEWAY, UP THE HILL.
AS YOU COME UP THE HILL, TURN RIGHT AT THE TOP OF THE HILL. YOU WONβT MISS THE BARN.
