Sounds like a plan. I'm not sure what my evening will be like, but
directions would be useful, if not for tonight then eventually.
Here goes, Rob - but you'd need an Ontario map to get there alone:
Text description of how to get to the FLO:
Take Hwy#17 West to Hwy#44
Take Hwy#44 all the way through Almonte to Hwy#15 (**Petro Can** on
corner )
Turn Right ( North ) on Hwy#15 ( going towards Arnprior )
Go 2.8 km to Clayton Rd.
Turn left ( West ) onto Clayton Rd.
Go 1.4 km over gentle rise
until County Rd.#8 ( dim sign points to Mill of Kintail )
Turn R onto County Rd#8
Go 2.8 km Passing Mill on Right side,
Crossing small bridge over Indian River, Road turns to gravel
At benny's corner, turn right
Then go only about 100 metres
there will be a grey barn ( left side ),
across the road from a the swing gate (right side )
and Enter the gate.
Turn off lights last 100 meters if safe and possible.
You will see clubhouse and observatory.
Note that on this particular evening, Richard and I are meeting at the
Petro Can at 7:30pm at the corner of Hwys #44 & #15, so I can show him
the way in. With the directions above and an Ontario map, I made it
there alone the first time without problems.

I believe Al Seaman, , can be eMailed for an actual map of the
location as well, for future reference.
