like in the past it would be verbatim, but I'm not saying that 
there is one.
Directions to Creathorne Farm:
Grafton, NH
For GPS: 702 main St. Grafton, NH

From the Southeast (middle and southern NH, and anywhere in MA east of 
Springfield):
   you will want to take route 93 North through NH. From MA or CT you 
can get to route 93 from routes 495, 3, and 95(128). Take route 93 
North through Nashua, Manchester, and Concord.
   If you are coming from the Northeast, you want to take 93 South.

   Get off at exit 17, just North of Concord. This should put you on 
route #4. Take route 4 West. Route 4 runs concurrent with routes 3 and 
11 off and on during this trip, so make sure you stick with the right 
route! You should pass through several small towns, including 
Boscawen, Andover, Franklin, and Danbury. It take about 30 minutes to 
get from route 93 to Grafton (it?s about 30.5 miles to the border). 
Creathorne is 3.5 miles from the Grafton/Danbury town line, on the 
right. There is a white sign that says ?Little Creathorne Farm? in 
plain sight. The farm house is a white color.
   Pull in through the gate in the wooden fence (NOT the driveway) and 
park in the area defined by the logs, on either side of the small hill 
right there. I will have Creathorne, Black and gray shields near the 
road in the day light, and torches burning at the gate at night, so 
this site is usually very easy to find.

   From the Northwest, VT, NY, or anywhere West of Springfield, MA: 
you?ll want to come into Grafton from the other direction. Take route 
91 (which runs up the NH/VT border) to 89S into Lebanon, NH. You?ll be 
getting off, at exit 17. This should put you on route 4. Take route 4 
East, passing through Enfield and  Canaan, and into Grafton. It takes 
about 35 minutes to get from route 89 to Grafton (it?s about 20 miles 
to the border). Creathorne is about 10-15 minutes from Canaan center, 
on the left.
