We live on a dead-end country lane we share with four other homes.
A few years ago we went on a river cruise in Europe. The river boats are small, and people get acquainted pretty readily. After a day or so, some of the other folks told us there was another couple from Wisconsin aboard.
We bumped into one another in short order. "Where in Wisconsin are you from?"
"We're from blah-blah."
"Wow, we're from blah-blah too. What road do you live on?
It turned out that they lived on OUR road, three doors down. We'd waved at each other for well over five years and had never come close enough to have a conversation until then.
