Oh, and beer.

 

[FarmerMatt]

I'll make some guac if you'll bring the chips. Lets plan on everyone coming out around mid afternoon (3:00ish) & leave when I get tired of everyone & run you all off with my shot gun.

Directions from the north on 99 (North of Madera):
Take 99 south to Ave. 18 ½, which is just north of Madera. At the off-ramp drive straight across 18 1/2 & onto Rd. 23. You'll stay straight on Rd. 23 (south) for approx. 11 1/2 miles until you reach Ave. 7 (stop sign). Turn right (west) on Ave. 7. You’ll stay on Ave. 7 for approx. 8 ½ miles. The last crossroad will be Rd. 16. We are 1 ½ miles past Rd. 16. There will be 2 black mailboxes side by side with a Slow Moving Vehicle Triangle mounted under them on the right hand side of Ave. 7 (north side). Turn right (north) on this dirt road. We are the second house back & approx. ½ mile north of Ave. 7.

Directions from the north on I5 (Bay area):
Take I5 south to the Firebaugh turn off / Nees Ave. Take Nees Ave. into Firebaugh. At the first stoplight you come to (hwy 33) take a right. At the very next intersection (stop light) you’ll want to take a left. This is 13th street, which will also turn into Ave. 7 ½. Continue out of town on Ave. 7 ½. After approx. 5 miles Ave. 7 ½ will split into Ave. 7 & Ave. 12. At this split you’ll want to stay to the right & head towards Fresno & be on Ave. 7. Approx. 4 miles after the split you’ll see a large shop / equipment complex on the left (north) side of Ave. 7. Our driveway is ½ mile past the shop on the north side of the road. There are 2 black mail boxes side by side with a Slow Moving Vehicle Triangle mounted below them. Turn left (north) on this dirt road. We are the second house back & approx. ½ mile north of Ave. 7.

Directions from south 99 (Fresno & south):
Take 99 north through Fresno. The off-ramp will be Ave. 7, which is the next off-ramp after Herndon. Turn left (west) on Ave. 7. You’ll continue west on Ave. 7 for approx. 18 ½ miles. . The last crossroad will be Rd. 16. We are 1 ½ miles past Rd. 16. There will be 2 black mailboxes side by side with a Slow Moving Vehicle Triangle mounted under them on the right hand side of Ave. 7 (north side). Turn right (north) on this dirt road. We are the second house back & approx. ½ mile north of Ave. 7.

Take state route 145 south out to 5 points. From there you'll head towards I5. Take I5 north to the Nees Ave (Firebaugh exit)... It's a very scenic drive...
