Simple directions from Boston to Mike's

You want to go west on route 2, from 128 (or as the newbies call it I-95 :-) that's exit 29, Route 2 west. From this point it's between two and two and a half hours (more or less, depending on how you drive and how badly I wrote the directions).

Go a long way west on Route 2 until the split for I-91.
Take I-91 North into Vermont.
Take exit 2 off I-91 in Vermont and get on Vermont route 9 west.
Just before Wilmington, 17.2 miles from I-91, is the junction with Vermont route 100. There is a large flea market at this intersection (just past the turn) on weekends in the summer, and snowmobile registration in the winter. If you get to Wilmington, you went too far, just go back a short distance on route 9 to Route 100 (from the "Welcome to Wilmington" sign, it's less than a mile back to route 100 south.)
Follow 100 south 3.6 miles to the first paved road on the right, this is Wilmington Cross Road. It's also the only one on that side with a "T" sign before it. The street sign is easily visible as you approach on route 100.
Follow Wilmington Cross Road to the stop sign at the end (2.0 miles), then go straight across that intersection (the intersecting road is route 100 again, but it followed a slightly longer way to get there) on to Goodnow Road.
Note: If you miss the turn for Wilmington Cross Road you will pass through Jacksonville (about 6 miles from route 9), in that case continue to follow Vermont route 100 up the hill and keep an eye out for Wilmington Cross Road on the right and Goodnow road on the left. Goodnow is the second left after the school, at the highest point on Route 100 between Jacksonville and Whitingham. There is a sign for the intersection that looks a little like a stick figure with one arm raised (stiffly), the raised arm is Goodnow Road. Turn left onto Goodnow road and you are back on the original directions.
Goodnow road is about half a mile long, go to the far end.
Note: from the point where you get on Goodnow road to my house is only 2 miles. This is the section where most people who get off the directions do so. If you go 2 miles from here and you're not at my house yet, you missed a turn. The rest of the directions mention every intersection, don't go through one without noting what the directions say to do.
Goodnow Road merges into Town Hill Road. Turn right and pass the Brigham Young Memorial (Whitingham is the birthplace of Brigham Young, founder of the Mormon Church) and the ball fields on the left, and the town "common" (playground and military memorials) on the right.
Shortly after the memorial (you've traveled about a quarter mile on Town Hill Road) the main road turns left and becomes Poverty Row (Town Hill Road continues straight down the hill, don't follow that). The sign for Poverty row is visible.
Poverty Row is about half a mile long, go to the far end. There are a couple of dirt roads off Poverty Row, do not turn onto these. Poverty Row ends at an intersection with other paved roads.
At the end of Poverty Row, continue straight onto Burrington Hill Road, the street signs here are not as visible. Do not turn with the main road onto Kentfield Road.
Almost immediately (maybe 100 feet), Burrington Hill Road curves to the left, but you should continue straight (or slightly right) onto the dirt road, this is Streeter Hill Road. The street sign for Streeter Hill Road is not visible as you approach it, as it will be edge on to you. But you can see it on your left as you enter the road, or behind you if you go past it (the latter is how I found it the first time :-).
My house is number 517, it's the first driveway on the left, about half a mile from the start of the road. There is a mailbox with the number 517 on it on the right just before my driveway, when you see that my house is on the left and you are about to pass my driveway, which isn't very visible before you reach it. There is a sign on a tree on the far side of the driveway with the number (517) and name (Patton) on it.

If you get off the described route and need to stop for directions, your ultimate destination is:

517 Streeter Hill Rd
Whitingham, VT

which is near the intersection of Poverty Row, Kentfield Road, and Burrington Hill Road (all of which end at that intersection). That should be enough for any local to get you headed in the right direction, or you can call the house at (802) 368-7121.
