Otherwise, they will be going around-and-around on that obamacare-ish website.

Yes... I know. FEDEX calls is something different and UPS is different again. The options are:

5211 Old State Highway 261
5211 Highway 261
5211 State Route 261
5211 State Road 261
- so and and so forth using other combinations those words.

Funny thing is that I live five doors (including the funeral home!) north of the 47630 Post Office and I know everyone there on a personal basis. Actually... I don't think anyone cares as long as my zip code and name are on the box. It's gonna get here.

Folks driving here and trying to use a GPS are probably going to be pointed North instead of South at the intersection of Indiana 66 and Old State Road 261!

...but the USPS website will not ALLOW me to enter your address and continue towards printing a mailing label UNLESS the words "State Route" are used.

I understand. At the same time, 'state route' will not work in creating a FEDEX shipping label. I get crap all the time because my PayPal information reflects at least four versions of my address.

From experience: gps and such might lead you astray BUT, if you ask the local copper how to get to Dan's place, you'll get there!!! Everybody knows him and it is well worth going there.

It's small town America, all you need is:

Tuba
47630

Right?
