I once asked a young lady at a convenience store, in Iowa, where a motel was. She told me to go down to the Stop n Go, turn right, go one mile and turn left at the next Stop n Go. I drove around looking for convenience stores called Stop n Go. They are traffic lights. Not stores!
That used to happen more before GPS devices when I asked for directions, but due to circumstances it still happens. While in NJ I asked and was told to pass the large oak before turning, but the resident did not know the tree was gone in the super storm.

That’s not just in the South. And it also applies to teen-aged girls.

It never fails: When I ask directions around here, it’s always near where something used to be!

Excellent comment. I shall use that phrase if you don’t mind.
