There is limited parking in our driveway and on the front lawn (but expect to be blocked in, so only use the driveway if you’re planning on staying late). After 5:00 p.m. on Friday, you can use both the small parking lot at the post office (across the street about 150 yards from the house) and the lot at Martha’s Herbary (next door, with a path leading from the lot onto our property), which holds about 25 cars.
