On my way to a chapter meeting of a distant chapter fom my own down in Iowa
I took a wrong turn and ended up in a small town in Iowa right in the middle
of the town. Realizing I would need to backtrack to where I had deviated
from my route I was looking for somewhere to turn around when I noticed the
street signs Main street crossing Main street! I was very happy for my sense
of direction on that day in that town!
