Approaching from Santa Fe/Espanola or Los Alamos Airport:

On NM Hwy 502, as you approach Los Alamos from the south, stay to the left at any Y intersections as you enter town, which will put you on Trinity Drive.  You will pass the Marimac Shopping Center on your right (Smiths Grocery and Baskin-Robbins), continue straight through two stoplight intersections on Trinity (for ~ 1.5 miles), and stay in right hand lane as you approach the LA Medical Center (on the left) at the stoplight intersection with Diamond Drive.  Turn right onto Diamond Dr. (heading north). 

Proceed straight on Diamond Dr. through three more stoplight intersections.  After the third stoplight (Conoco gas station on the left), you will head down a short hill and continue through the Los Alamos County Golf Course (now heading east on Diamond).  At the other end of the golf course (~ 1 mi) you will come to a “round-a-bout” 4-way intersection – stay in the right hand lane (no need to enter the round-a-bout) to turn right onto San Ildefonso South and head up to the top of North Mesa.  Stay on San Ildefonso as you pass the Los Alamos Middle School (on the left at the top of the hill) and continue down a long hill past some apartment housing, ball parks and open fields, and the county horse stables (on the left) until the street begins to curve to the right (south).  Just past this curve, turn left on Sioux St. (into Tsikimu Village) and proceed almost to the end of the street (~ .5 mi) to 1350 – the house is on the left just past Ute St. (culdesac to the right), and is a pale yellow modified two-story mobile home with a 2-car garage on the right side.

Approaching from Jemez Mountains or Bandelier National Monument:

From NM Hwy 4 turn onto East Jemez Rd (turn left if coming from the Jemez, turn right if coming from Bandelier) and continue on into town past the Los Alamos National Laboratory Technical Areas and Administrative Complex.  Go straight through two stoplight intersections and stay in the left or center lane as you approach the third stop light.  Turn left onto Diamond Dr. (heading north) at this third stoplight and proceed straight across the Los Alamos Canyon Bridge and stay left as you approach the next stoplight to stay on Diamond Dr.  Proceed straight through this 4th stoplight (near the Los Alamos Medical Center (on the right) to the next stoplight  where Diamond intersects with Trinity Dr.  Stay on Diamond by continuing straight through this 5th stoplight.  From here, follow the directions on Step 2 above.
