It certainly was interesting. I half expected to take off circle around and end up back on the ground in the same place. There was a lot of head scratching and chatting going on at the time, but in the end, they sent me in the right direction.
As for Manchester, ME, I used that PO often as I was the treasurer of the Cobbosseecontee Yacht Club and the club used a POB there for our mail. It worked out well as my office was in Augusta so I went by on my to and from my home in Winthrop.
