There really is a Whitacre, VA. My forebears hail from this tiny mountain hamlet. If you’d like to visit, you must have too much time on your hands. But here are the directions in case you’d like to swing through on your way to the retreat:

• Follow the directions provided on the previous post to get onto Rt. 50.
• Pass Rt. 259 and turn RIGHT onto Whitacre Road. Go about three miles.
• Turn RIGHT onto Redland Road. Go about a mile or so.
• Welcome to Whitacre, VA. Don’t blink; you might miss it.
• To get back to the retreat, turn around, go back the way you came. Turn LEFT onto Rt. 50, and then pick up the other directions by turning RIGHT onto Rt. 259.
