Turn right on Duchess Dr. (the first  right after you crest the big hill which is Duchess Dr. by the UAF experimental farm). Take a left on Regents Rd (going straight isn't really an option). The next street on the right is Joanne Dr. Mr. Trotter's house is at the end of the street, last driveway on the left.
