Need Help With Directions
Just exactly how do you get across 466 to Crispers and the rest of the shopping center?

Go up Buena Vista to the Bonnybrook/Belvedere tunnel (you have no choice but to take this tunnel). Turn left. Follow the golf cart path to Belvedere Road/Street/Avenue (whatever it's called). Turn left. Follow Belvedere all the way around to the other gate. Get back on the golf cart path right before the library. Go straight. Cross Parr. Continue going straight and through the tunnel. Voila! You're at the shopping center. If you go to the other tunnel and turn left into it, you'll be on your way to Wal-Mart.
Better yet, just head out with a map in hand. Stop along the route with the map out. Someone will happily guide you.

Thanks Chuck - I should have known you'd be the one to have the answer. I didn't know there was a tunnel under 466 at Belvedere though.

Red - Thanks also for the directions, but I wouldn't count on getting help from passers by. When we first were roaming around, it got to be dark and cold one night. We dropped the sides down on the cart and were trying to read the map with a flashlight. Several carts passed us by and didn't even slow down.

Good Question. Good answers. If you get lost, just ask for directions to The Village Library near the Belvedere gate. That cart path takes you under 466 and it is the only tunnel under 466. Crispers and all that shopping is in what they call Wedgewood Lane. Hope all these answers help.

Thanks to you too Larry. There is another tunnel under 466 though. It's down near Laurel Manor. That's the one we've been using to get from where we're staying to LSL.

Welcome Ajack!
Have a nice Thanksgiving. We are driving to our niece's house - two hours south thru the mts, but a nice drive in the daylight without rain or snow (highest we get is about 2000 ft.) It got down to about 24 degrees this morning and the higher mtns have a dusting of snow. The one in the avatar pic tops out at 4300 ft. (the lake is at 1350 ft). Staying over night and driving back on Friday. .
