Thanks for the directions Jim! Lol! Dad and I are planning on going to Acton for the national open and on google earth it did look like it was pretty much at the end of the world. Haha!

John is right about Scribner Neb as well. That place was literally in the middle of the corn field.

While on vacation in Aruba, it was an adventure finding the dragstrip.
No street signs, goats in the road ,some pretty rough dirt roads.
