Butterfly, aren't you flitting in with a Bluebird? Did not the fair
lady Alafair take pity and you and give you directions? If you are
still betwixt and between in directions but know the location check
the driving directions on some of the boxes located there. If you
are unsure of the location check the calendar here to the left. The
specific spot at the mystery locale was mentioned in my checklist.
