Do they still paint town names on water towers or train depots? Or arrows to the nearest airport? Why make it so complicated.

I hope so, the one in Kalida Ohio saved my bacon back in 99 when I was scud running between two thunderstorms. I was lost and looking for anyplace to get out of the sky, it was September and all the fields had 11' high corn. If I had to I was landing in the corn. Raining so hard it was running down the floor. 300' ceiling and I looked up at the water tower and saw the town name on it. Figured out where I was and headed down the county hyway towards a county Airport 10 miles away. Saw a hay strip between the corn under me and landed in a monsoon. Turned out to be a duster strip and Dave took me in for the night. Hot shower, dinner and a bed. Ended up on the couch with him and his wife Cindy eating popcorn watching " the man show " Life is good if you let it happed. If a had a GPS it never would have this great story. If you live out that way tell Dave Gerker I said hello
