Reminds me of the old English Histoical Landmark'oaks here in south jersey apparently planted in colonial times'.
My wife thought I was crazy when she first moved here from New England. Turn Left by the big Oak tree ?? what kind of directions is that?. any more it is turm by the wawa and one has to ask which one.

Good Morning, Gents ............... During my first months here in South Jersey, I carried a map with me e-v-e-r-y-w-h-e-r-e I went. When that failed me, I tried to think what compass direction I needed (using the sun as a reference, except when the sky was cloudy - in which case, I was in bigger trouble), than went that way until I recognized something... anything! ??? Of course, with the bending roads, I could still get disoriented. Fun times! Friends of mine were coming down to visit, when we were still living in a more rural area, with virtually no landmarks. Mostly broken down chicken coops - all over the place. So, we went up to the Garden State Parkway, and took pictures of all the intersections needed for workable directions (complicated by road work going on, naturally!). They thought it was the biggest joke in the world, until they drove down!! :
Then, they actually complained about the wrong color car at the intersection, or the grass being brown instead of green.
Fun times, indeed!! :big:
