And give them a list of the nearest "Safe Spaces".

I don't understand modern phones, but don't you just look up quick trip on some phone app? (I have to look for them for the bathrooms, but I just drive down the street and look.)

What you do is ask for an Uber driver who keeps a warm puppy in his car to give you a ride for few blocks.

I'm sure you can. I can't do very much on them either. I'm not smart enough to operate a smart phone. I just used the GPS for the 1st time last Sunday.

Damn, wish I would've had that years ago.

My dad always said my mom and I would get lost in a paper sack, if it wasn't for GPS I wouldn't make it home several times a week.

Paper maps?

My foray into selling was an effort selling books door to door while in college. Cell phones were in cells at the side of the road and the gps app didn't work.

I used to have phone books for all the towns I worked. Most of them had the local street maps in them.

I remember delivering pizzas using maps. There was always one huge map on the wall broken down into grids. You would know if the address was in B5 or E2, find it on the map and hope to not get lost on the way there.

I did have a cell phone though. It was huge and I got charged by the minute (except after 9pm). That helped.

I've got a crate of maps & map books in the garage. Not sure why I keep them!

A lot of gas stations had street maps on the walls. If you go back far enough, you could get directions at the Post Office in small towns, even for the country folks.

For LD...most of the pay phones didn't have phone books because guys like me would take them(before I found out I could order them from the phone company.

I had 2 milk crates full of phone books and maps and just pitched them recently.
