82*

So we attempted to get a house number to appease the gods over at Verizon who refuse to come hook up our telephone until we have a physical number. We spoke with Jai over at the Bar Harbor Fire Department and he agreed to go out and measure. He called us back and said that we were number 122. Since Bob and Paige are number 97 and they are the lot just beyond ours (and on the same side of the road) that didn't make any sense. But he was certain that 122 was correct and the other numbers had been done incorrectly. Additionally Sylvan Way forks, with our house being to the left and the Clarks to the right. Therefore, to avoid confusion on 911 calls, Jai said one of the branches would have to be renamed. While Anne was excited at the prospect of naming a road (Quidditch Way came to mind), Corey did not think the other people on the road would be too pleased. However, Jai called Corey two days later and said he had been back up there to re-measure and he realized his initial measurement was off by a 1000 feet! We should actually be number 82. And the road would not have to be renamed. Not wanting to push the issue of why we were even and Bob and Paige were odd (though we could come up with an explanation of why Bob is odd) we left it alone.
