Need recommendations on best way to get there. Will be coming down I 95 from NC and once I hit Jacksonville Fl I see there a bunch of different options but as I am not familiar with the roads I would appreciate some directions.

**lilricky** · 01-11-2015, 14:26

I would recommend this route, take I-295 around Jacksonville: https://www.google.com/maps/dir/Nort...d29.040047!3e0

Watch for small (8 1/2 x 11) sign that says "FHV" with an arrow at the turn for 127th.
The only Doe Lake sign is at the entrance from the dirt road.

I am thinking about bringing a kayak for the gearage sale. Tarpon 160i. I would like 450 for it. But, if nobody shows interest in it I won't bring it. Looking to make some money to spend more on the raffle!!

Nice boat!
Great price!

Thanks MightyMouse! I'll leave it up to you as to when you want to help with prep and cleanup. There will be no shortage of helpers needed. I'm gonna need food servers to for portion control.

I know you know what it takes because you have seen the FTA group in action there. Thank you lilricky for all you do. You are awesome!

In other news...less than a week to go!

Gunner, as someone from Jax I'll warn you about the Orange Park/Fleming Island section of LilRicky's route. Traffic is heavy in OP and you'll top out around 45. Please obey the speed limit. Cameras abound and the OP cops like to stop people. FI isn't bad cop-wise but it takes a while to get you out of the slow area. Not a bad route, just don't want you to be surprised.

Looks like I'll be coming down Sat instead so save me some trees. I have family coming in on Fri which threw a wrench in my plans but it'll work out. I may be a +1 but I haven't gotten final word.

Anyone know what the ATT/Verizon coverage is like? At the first of the year I moved into a team lead position which means I have the benefit of being on call 24x7. Today was our schedule production move but I haven't checked on this coming weekend. There's a chance I might get sucked into something and I'll need to find a signal if there isn't one at the lake.

AT&T is weak, but there. Verizon is great I think.
