[QUOTE="Andy, post: 217118, member: 5096"] Sounds like something easy child needs........ Wednesday night she and K stopped in St Cloud on the way to the cities. Now, St Cloud is a confusing city and easy to get turned around in. K told me she would Google directions for their way out and back on 94 East. 8:30 pm, I called and asked where they were: [COLOR=Magenta]"We are lost. We are heading East on Hwy 23" [COLOR=DarkOliveGreen]"You are suppose to go West on Hwy 23. Have you crossed Hwy 10?" [COLOR=Magenta]"Yes, awhile back!" [COLOR=DarkOliveGreen]"Turn around and head back to town. Watch for signs for 94 East." [COLOR=Black]I then tried to suggest that she head South on Hwy 10 until she got to the Clearwater/Clear Lake cut across. It would have been easier than going through St. Cloud but she would not listen. So, about 1/2 hour later, I call again to ask where she was: [COLOR=Magenta]"We are lost again. We followed directions to 94 but are now on Hwy 15." [COLOR=DarkOliveGreen]"That is good. Are you going South or West?" [COLOR=Magenta]"South" [COLOR=DarkOliveGreen]"That is perfect. Keep going. You will get to 94 soon. Just make sure you go 94 East!" [COLOR=Black]I later found out that K did get directions, however, there was detours to contend with and I know that those can often be difficult to navigate. About 9:55 pm, I called again. They just pulled off the interstate to Rice Street. They had 5 minutes to arrive before the alarm was set on the door they wanted to come in by. Since they arrived at 10:05, they had to go in the front enterance and carry their luggage the length of the building. At least they made it safe and sound.
