2 out of state friends called saying they were passing through the area and would like to stop for a visit. I was most happy to see them again after years of just phone calls. These are old hunting buddies, real outdoor types, mountains, birds, big game, dogs, pack horses....etc.
I gave both of them directions and the simple address, go 4 miles from the interstate exit, turn right on a state road #XXX, 2 miles...mailbox..street XXXX. See you shortly... address..simple.
Guy #1...calls...I am at xyx road, how do I get there...Me..you have gone 8 miles too far turn around and come back.. turn on ..abc road go to the big black mail box. No luck... I finally had to go out to the main road and flag him down.
Guy #2...next day. Gave him directions...4 miles ect etc. 45 minutes later. I called, where are you? He had driven 20 miles in a circle following a bbbeeeep on an Iphone. He had been within a mile and had turned and circled. I went out and got him 3 miles away.
Folks, I live on a well marked state highway. My mailbox is esily visible and prominent. I can give people without an Iphone directions and they will drive right to my door.
These friends are (were) outdoorsmen that I would trust in the Canadian wilderness to get me out. Now they get lost in a neighborhood because they have forsaken their brain for an Iphone computer map.
