My husband's grandmother lived there in the late 70's / 80's. She lived in an apartment downstairs and managed it.

We usually keep our failures private and just tell ourselves, "If you are lost and there is no man there to fuss at you for it, are you really lost?" (No, you are not.). ;>)) But now that we know a real road warrior was stumped, we can hold our heads up!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11027153185934395283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6247309969403610544.post-20699273972620620882015-07-28T19:00:11.700-05:002015-07-28T19:00:11.700-05:00Me, too!

I did find it on my second trip, but it was almost accidental.<br /><br />I am elated to hear about (and see) Duck Hill though. For 12 years, every trip down the Interstate I think "I need to check out Duck HIll."Suzassippihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05684211841308097391noreply@blogger.com
