Where is it?

I love my adopted town
I have said it lots of times before on this blog
I love how quaint and silly the lifers are that grew up here.
I have lived all over and really feel at home in a city.
I would never have conversations like I do here in my smallish community

Convos like this:

School paper arrives home for girl years ago in show choir.
Time Date and location
Location was: Meet behind the old jail.
WTH?
So I call the school
Where is this?
Behind the old jail.
I dont know where the new jail is have you an address
It is kitty korner to the Kruse building
Are you serious?
Yes you know the Kruse building!
I didnt know you named your buildings
silence.........
Dont you have a street Addy
It's the NW corner off Main
So it's on Main?
No the Kruse building is on Main
Seriously??
I need a street addy or we wont be there.
Hold on...........
Finally some janitor got on and gave me an addy.

But
