1. Go SOUTH on Interstate Highway 35 (i.e., "IH35") to Round Rock, Texas.
2. Take exit # 252B - Route 620 WEST. Take a right at the traffic light
at the top of the hill. You're now on Route 620 going West.
3. Go WEST (young man. Go West) on Route 620. After approximately 8
traffic lights (seems like forever - not sure about the count), you will
cross over Route 183. Keep going on Route 620.
4. AFTER crossing under the Route 183 overpass, start counting traffic lights again.
5. At the 13TH traffic light, there will be a 7-11 store on your right. THIS
IS ONLY A LANDMARK. You're at Route 2222 (to the right, Route 2222 is
called "Bullick Hollow Road". Go figure.)
6. Keep going straight on Route 620 West (or is it "South" now) but check your
odometer or trip meter at this light.
7. Continue on Route 620 South for 2.1 miles past "St. Lukes on the Lake"
Church overlooking Lake Travis on your right.
8. Just past the next traffic light (on the next curve), if clear, get on the
shoulder of the road and slow down. Traffic behind you will be coming
around the curve at 60 MPH. Slowly turn RIGHT onto MARSHALL FORD ROAD.
9. Turn RIGHT at the 4TH street onto PARK DRIVE. There's also a brown sign just
before PARK DRIVE that says to "TOM HUGHES PARK".
10. The speed limit is 15 MPH. The road is windy and narrow. Watch for
oncoming traffic taking their half of the road from the middle.
11. Follow PARK DRIVE for .8 (i.e., 8/10THs) miles to MARSHALL FORD MARINA.
12. Turn LEFT in front of the MARSHALL FORD MARINA sign.
13. Turn RIGHT about 30 feet down the hill at the first right into the parking
lot.
14. Walk to the dumpster, LEFT down the stairs, across the driveway at the
marina's office and down the next set of stairs. You'll be at the lower
patio. To your left are the well kept restrooms.
15. Meet me at the lower patio below the marina's office.
16. Problems finding the place? Call Captain Sam on the cell number, above.
