What is the address for the start point? The link on your post doesn't give me the info - just calls it "destination" or "origin" depending on which way I use it.

I think it is worth taking 44/101/6 but we'll see what Josh (j67...) thinks and anyone else coming from CT.

Very kind of you to offer you house for a break. Should take about an hour from there? If so, I'll have to leave around 6:30am (Oy Vey) so that I get to 195 around 9am.

Correct - about an hour from my house to the start point. Anyone cutting across using RT 6 thru CT will have to connect thru Providence onto 195. If that's the route let me know, otherwise I'll see y'all at the start.

There is no address. It's a parking lot. There's a Scratch Pad on the Map that gives details. "Meet in parking lot. Then head up to the bridge to get onto RT. 6"

If anyone else is having difficulty using Live Search let me know.

It should look like the attached.

Wasn't having trouble w/the map, just didn't like the directions it was trying to give me when I plugged info in using the "drive from" option. Anywho -

Confirm directions from 195:

25 E --> 6 E --> rotary - staying on 6 E --> Left on Church Lane --> Right on Winston Ave

Parking lot (Cape Cod Canal) is on Winston Ave? In a "can't miss it" obvious spot, I assume?

Try this: Google Maps. You can right click anywhere on the map and define that as start or finish and then you can drag the directions path to any road you want. I guestimated where you live but the finish point is there with the long parking lot on the right of the road.

I'm also looking into getting us a group rate for the mini golf. There are 2 courses, so we can divide into groups and then teams.

I will be heading up 195. Where are you? We can find a place to meet for the ride up.

Anyone else going up 195?

I'm thinking the parking lot of the Ramada Inn just off 195 in Seekonk would be an easy place to meet up. 195 East, Exit 1 in Mass takes you right up to the front of it.

Sound Good to Willub & Hagar - and anyone else who will be heading out 195?
