Nithburg

I was going to be missing a ball game because of the tournament in Ottawa.  So I gave John, on my team, the equipment bag and the helmets but I forgot to give him the game balls.  So I contacted him and said I would drive over to his place and drop them off.  I set Betsy for his address in Nithburg and started out.  Betsy brought me to St Clements and told me I was there but I knew I wasn't in Nithburg.  I didn't know where Nithburg was.  Fortunately, the St Clements public library was open.  So I parked and went in and talked to the librarian.  She didn't know where Nithburg was either but she was able to look it up on Google Maps and print out directions for me.  When I finally got there, no one answered the door.  So I went around to the backyard and John's wife and kids were there.  John came out of the house and I don't know why he didn't hear me knocking.  But I gave him the game balls and we talked for a while.  I told him how my GPS failed me and he just laughed.
