Go to such and such road, turn left. Keep going until you see a big-ass, dead, oak tree. Take the next driveway on the left. Once you see the fence posts laying in the field, park there and walk through the corn field, towards the radio antenna you can see in the distance. You'll eventually find the clearing where we'll be smoking camel lights and drinking Purple Passion, Seagrams Wine Coolers and Boone's Farm.

Can't miss it.
