On the corner of Easy Street and Poverty Lane
My friend Kirbie recently discovered that the corner of Easy Street and Poverty Lane is in Salem, South Carolina. Really.
While I wanted to credit the optimism of whoever named the roads (Poverty Lane is a deadend, Easy Street links two major roads), I just realized that Easy Street is the only way to enter or exit Poverty Lane. This calls to mind an essay by Garrison Keillor.
