Directions to Caltech Meeting

1) If you are taking the 210 (Foothill) Freeway West,
	or the 134 (Ventura) Freeway East:
Take the Lake Avenue exit South.
(Left if you're going West, Right if you're going East)
Keep going for several lights in quick succession, for about a mile, until  
you get to Del Mar Ave.  Turn Left.  Go past Mentor and Catalina.  The  
first light is Wilson, at which point you will be at Caltech.  Turn Right  
(south).

2) If you are taking the 110 (Pasadena) Freeway North:
Keep going all the way until the freeway ends.  Keep going straight ahead;  
you are now on Arroyo Parkway.   The second major street is California.     
Turn Right.  After a dozen or so blocks, you will get to Lake Ave.  Go  
past Mentor and Catalina.    The next light after that is Wilson, at which  
point you will be at Caltech. Turn Left (North).  Go past the Stop Sign on  
San Pasqual.

Once you are on Wilson, going North or South:

Park in the lot just south of Lura, to the East of Wilson.  Beckman  
Institute is the large, classical building fronted by a huge expanse of  
rolling lawns.  It has a large internal courtyard surrounding a fountain.  
It is opposite the Parking Structure. 
We are in
	 Beckman Institute #134
which is the North Wing.  Refreshments will be served in the courtyard.
[Note that this building is Beckman Institute, not to be confused with a  
half-dozen other buildings also named Beckman.]
