You’d print IF you had a printer. I always had to find a piece of paper and hand write all the direction.

And apparently printer ink cost a million dollars because we only printed the directions to get there and then reverse-engineered the drive home

Don’t forget the step where we take the print out to our father for approval of whether Mapquest identified his preferred/ favoured route that he has trialled and tested for 40 years … and then having him over-write with a pen the ammendments😂

I didn't even know Mapquest still existed until this whole thing. And yes, it will forever be Lake Ontario. Thank you, Mapquest.

We stopped and asked random strangers how to get where we wanted to go. And the strangers would gladly help 😃

I used deliver pizza and you had to look at map on the wall and either memorize where you were going or write it down. if you got lost, you had to radio the restaurant and hope someone could help you figure it out

And there were certain members of society that we all trusted with giving us verbal directions if we still got lost. Gas station attendants, pizza delivery people, taxi drivers, the oldest man loitering outside of any establishment…and so on. 🙂

Folding maps was a life skill you had to learn from your parents…and there’d be hell to pay if you didn’t fold the map right
