This is new to
you, so a few
tips are in
order. Listen
up for a
minute!
I will be driving near
Hampden today, and I’ll
need to buy some sinus
medicine. I wonder if they
have any Rite Aid stores
there. What street would
they be on? And is there a
place to park? I’m driving
my dad’s truck today, and it
needs a lot of room.

Leave it

Give Google enough
information to work
with.
Great! Two Rite
Aids in Hampden.
Let’s enlarge
things a bit.
Great! I see a big parking lot.
It’s right at the corner of Falls
Road and 37th Street. I’m going!
Now you
try it!
If this same person had to
go to 100 East Main Street
in Westminster, Maryland,
would he have enough
room to park his big
truck?
