Default That's just wrong

I am sure that there is a reason to name 3 roads the same name but i am not a fan of it. Went out to a different lake this morning. I knew the lake was off of wuester rd. I did not know that wuester rd was the left following wuester drive. Apparently it is just east of wuester lane as well.

One's a road, one's a drive, and one's a lane.

Sounds familiar. A friend of mine lives in a subdivision named Devlin Springs. There's Devlin Springs Road, Lane, Street, Avenue, and Boulevard that all tie in together.
Around here, getting directions from a local wouldn't help, either. Too often, it's something like "Go down there a ways, then hang a left by the big oak tree. That winds around a little bit, but look for the old shack that fell down about 3 years ago, and turn there. Then turn left off the paved road when you see Old Man Carson's house that burned down in 1973..."

I wouldn't know about Southerner's direction. When we were at the guntersville event, we stopped at a gas station to ask where the wal-mart was (cause we wanted to go there to get some lures before going to our hotel). Anyways, I think we stopped at the wrong gas station... it was a korean lady who hardly spoke english and didn't know wher wal-mart was. First of all, what is a korean lady doing working at a gas stating in alabama. and second, who in alabama doesn't know where the local wal-mart is?!

OH, it turns out we could see the walmart from our hotel, lol.

Ain't that the truth!! The other popular name is Chastain, if the road ain't peachtree this or that, it's Chastain. Third in line is Burnt Hickory, geesh!
Yup!
There's a Walmart on every one of them too!

Well you could get the fat person's directions: "First you go to the Mcdonalds and take a right. Then you when you see the Hardees you will take a left but if you see the Bojangles you have gone to far."


P.S. Yes I can say this without offending () because I am fat.
