Thought I Knew Where the Funeral Home Is...

All of the store employees planned to go to the visitation for our friend, the branch manager's daughter after work. It was a difficult day, anticipating the drive in rush hour traffic and then the consequent greeting of the family. I figured out a route only to discover that the road was closed. Lots of traffic on the alternate routes. I did not look up where the funeral home is because I thought I knew its location. So I drove into the city to the wrong funeral home twice, and even once got out of my car to go in before noticing the sign. I stopped at a church to ask someone but no one was around, except for members of a wedding party rehearsal. Finally I crossed the street and asked the two gentlemen at the party store, told them that I was lost. One of the men knew exactly where it was and gave me perfect directions. So after an hour of driving and walking, I arrived. I spent some time with the family members and work colleagues and then headed home.
