This address I still have memorised: 8611 Falling Timber. The first address I ever learned, as now I was big enough to leave the yard on my own, and the city was too big for everyone to know who I was. Mom told me to memorise the address, with the instruction “if you ever get lost, find a police officer and tell them your address, and they will help you get home”. I never needed to do that, I could always find my way home.
