Google Maps works great, but some GPS apps get the address wrong. So just in case...Starting from I-25 at Highway 14 (Mulberry), head east 1 mile and pass County Road 5. After County Road 5, get in the right lane and then, about 221 yards (yes, I measured it) and on your right, you will see a mailbox "5513." There is a "Private Property - No Trespassing" sign as you enter the driveway which borders a water ditch canal...YOU, of course, are WELCOME!Just follow around along the canal to the home. It's about 3/4 a mile and you will see a brick house nestled in the trees on the right. Yard sign will be present.
