The RS Pres. asked if I would pick
up a food order in Winston. I Googled
the address but I did not like the option it showed on how to get there. I DON’T wish to stay on the freeway so I can
exit at 119 just so I can return back down.
There had to be another way. I
blew up the map and paid attention to the landmarks that were near the dentist
office that I go to. The addresses are
on the same street! I’m not going to get
off 119 when I can get off 112 and work my way up. That’s what I’ll do.
Yesterday morning – before I was
even out of bed – I thought about two streets in Myrtle Creek that don’t go
through. One cannot get from the post
office on Broadway to a resident who lives towards Chestnut or Neal. It ends at Spruce on one side and dead ends
on the other.
Same thing with Spruce. You can’t get from the 7th Day
Adventist Church to the Catholic Church for example. Once you hit Division you are at the school,
and Spruce doesn’t continue until Rice curves into it above the hill at the
corner of Coffenberry. Though a person could walk the distance of Spuce, I suppose. Cross into the school parking lot and climb the hill and go from there.
I am certain that I have mentioned
before that the kids have a running joke about Coffins and being buried (Coffen/berry) in the cemetery so close to
their school. The other day I received a
text that asked if I would be working at “Cough and Bury” last week. I laughed thinking she had typed it in that
way on purpose, but really it was Google recording her dictation.

Yesterday I traveled close to 80 miles –
which might not seem like a big deal to some people, but I personally am not
used to driving that many miles in just one day. I went 15 miles to the church in Winston(took about 35
minutes), 15 miles return (somehow that was shorter), another 7 miles to
deliver (drive wasn’t as long as unloading), to homeward church from there
(another 10 or so miles) stayed for 90 minutes, back to Winston for the dentist
and return home.
Wrote this post. Slept great last night.
