We see headlights in our front window, hear tires screech, and see a car sitting in front of our house before backing up. Comes from 2 adjacent farms being subdivided. Plat map is not what is really there. Durn Cherry growers anyway.
Don'tcha just hate when they do that.... I know of one street (Oxford Street) where it got cut in half by a major highway, then shifted over because of a factory needing to expand a large parking lot into a massive parking lot, the factory could do this because it employs half the city it's located in, and it's suppliers employ the other half. You would think that they might call one piece Oxford Street, another piece Oxford Road and another piece Oxford Drive, to keep it from being confusing, but naw, that would be too smart.... Had a cousin move into a house on that street, and of course we start looking on the wrong piece...
