1046.0. "Hail and Farewell, Rita Tillson -- (YACRP)" by VMSMKT::KENAH (The man with a child in his eyes...) Mon Sep 23 1991 15:41

    An esteemed member of this community is leaving the Greater Maynard
    Area.  Rita Tillson has made a career decision, and is moving to Texas
    (Houston, to be exact).  

    Now, she was just going to quietly slip away, but I found out, and got
    her permission to set up an event where we can gather to wish her well.

    So, here's the deal -- it's YACRP -- that's:

                    Yet Another Chinese Restaurant Party (at)

                                Manning Manse
                              Chelmsford, Mass
                         Tuesday, October 1st, 1991
                                  7:00 P.M.

    I'm posting this in WOMANNOTES, as well as two members-only
    conferences.  Please reply here or contact me if you wish to
    attend (I'll coordinate things, post directions, and make the
    necessary reservations).

    I can't make this dinner, but I want to say how sorry I am that
    Rita is leaving! Darn, so many nice people leaving. I hope you're
    leaving just the area, Rita, and not DEC?

1046.13Directions to Manning Manse/Hunan Garden.ABSISG::WAYLAY::GORDONWanna dance the Grizzly Bear...Tue Oct 01 1991 15:1223
	I got mail from Andrew with directions (even though I've been there
more times than I care to mention - it was a favorite MEIS going away spot.)
It doesn't look like a chinese restaurant.  It's a dark brown colonial-looking
building.

Here are the directions from the bottom of Andrew's mail:


P.S.  My thanks to Bruce Epstein for the following directions:

        -+-     -+-     -+-     -+-      -+-    -+-     -+-


First, the restaurant is actually in Billerica, not Chelmsford.

Directions to Hunan Garden at Manning Manse
-------------------------------------------

From Route 3 North or South, take Route 129 EAST (toward North Billerica).
[The Route 129 exit is south of Rt 495, and north of Rt 128.]  The restaurant
is on the RIGHT less than 1 mile from Route 3.  If you get to Route 3A, you
missed it.  If you pass Apollo Computer, you are going the wrong way on Route
129.
1046.14WMOIS::REINKE_Ball I need is the air....Tue Oct 01 1991 15:211
    What if you aren't coming from rte 3? I'll be driving west on rte 2.
1046.15VMSMKT::KENAHThe man with a child in his eyes...Tue Oct 01 1991 15:5414
    West on Route 2 from where?
    
    If you're inside Route 128, then take Route 2 west to Route 128 north
    to Route 3 north to the Route 129 exit.
    
    If you're between Routes 128 and 495, then take Route 2 in either
    direction until you intersect one or the other, take that road north
    until you get to Route 3; if you're on 128, take 3 north.  If you're
    on 495, take 3 south.
    
    If you're west of 495, then turn around and take Route 2 east to 495,
    495 north to Route 3 south.

    I'm bummed I'm going to miss this, especially as the restaraunt is
    about a mile from my house!  Do you suppose anyone will be there around
    9:30 still?  [my meeting in Cambridge lets out at 9:00.]

    mile, into Lowell, past the car dealership on the right, cemetary on
    the left, take a right before the Dairy Queen, go to the end, take

============================
Directions to The Hunan Gardens (from New Hampshire):

  Hunan Gardens Manning Manse Restaurant
  56 Chelmsford, North Billerica 508-663-4282

The Hunan Gardens is a Chinese restaurant about 3/4 miles
from CTC, on the border between Chelmsford and Billerica.

1.  Follow route 3 south to route 129 in Massachusetts.
    (Rt 129 is one or two miles inside of Rt 495.)

2.  Take exit #29 onto route 129.

3.  Turn right at the top of the exit ramp (there is a traffic 
    light here).  This puts you on Rt 129.
    
4.  Go about 1/2 or 3/4 miles on Rt 129. The Hunan Gardens will
    be on your right.  It's an *old* one story building, around a
    sharp curve, partially obscured by trees. There is a 3 by 4
    foot sign by the road side, but it is not obvious so keep an
    eye out.
