Homestead Hollow (local seasonal craft thingy) is 10/1-2/09. Last year we drove up from Birmingham to ride and sat for what seemed to be an hour just to get off the interstate let alone deal with the 2 miles of solid gridlock to get past the place on our way to The Ridge.


If you are riding this weekend you may seriously want to consider another route!!!!

Just sent out an email about this see below....

Good morning,
If you're planning on coming up to see us this weekend, beware that Homestead Hollow is also this weekend. Which mean that traffic through Springville will be backed up. So you may want to come the night before and camp or find an alternate route.
To find another route:
- Click the link below to bring up a google map.
http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=6505+Pine+Mountain+RD,+Springville,+al+35146&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=56.768363,66.445312&ie=UTF8&z=13&iwloc=A
- Now click the directions link and type in your address.
- This is where it gets fun. If it has you going through Springville. Click and drag the blue line until it gives you another route.
Let me know if you have any questions.

Got the email and thanks. Google maps is awesome.

I know it will be a busy weekend for you with the cool weather finally here. We didn't want people getting their day ruined with things within their control.
