The Wall Saga: Left Turn to Albuquerque

Posted on June 2, 2017April 13, 2025 By stega

This is why I was extremely happy when I got both Apple and Google Maps to update their data for our property. As mentioned a few times here, our house has two addresses. First, there’s the county address that predates the actual road to our property, which we call the “low” road as it is about 200 feet below us; it’s accessible via the south pasture, but only goats and four-wheel-drive vehicles can manage that route.

Then there’s our postal address, off the “high” road built by the Doc with his giant bulldozing tractor. Some of the inclines are quite steep and large trucks with automatic transmissions often have issues. This road is where our property is actually accessible, but Apple and Google both considered the two addresses completely separate and only until recently there was often confusion, as people trying to reach us regularly missed our driveway and ended up a half mile up the hill, where the road narrows considerably and the incline is not for the faint of heart. While the wall project was going, I gave the folks at Granite Rock very detailed instructions so that this would not happen, yet it did–twice. The first time resulted in the great unloading incident. The driver in this video was a bit more adept, though, and he made it back down just fine.

Just roll your eyes and shake your head

I’m just very thankful that back in February, the mapping issues were resolved in our favor.
