“I felt like an idiot.”

I don’t like to buy into stereotypes, but could it be that the residents of Massachusetts are directionally challenged? For the second time in a month, Massachusetters have had to be rescued from a day in the country. First there was the family in the corn maze (see A-Maze-ing) and now a couple in an apple orchard.
Police received a call for help from a couple at the Honey Pot Orchard in Stow, Massachusetts (population 6,671) last week. The husband insists he wasn’t lost; it was his wife’s poor sense of direction that got them into their predicament. As it turns out, it was his wife's good sense to call for help that got them out. The Honey Pot Orchard stretches over 200 acres, so this must happen fairly often, right? Nope. According to the owners, this is the first time they've lost a guest in 85 years.
