When we were at Benbrook Lake, SW of Fort Worth, Phyllis got looking at the map and realized we were going to be going by Somerville, Texas, where a classmate of mine lives.  Got ahold of them to find the exact address and drove to the house in Sommerville - Lyle Erstrom was in my grade all four years in Callaway (Nebraska) High School.

He had surprised us about 6 years ago when he showed up at our home in Kenwood RV Park in La Feria, TX.  He had gotten a line on my location because I had his sister Judy (now Kleen) on Facebook as a friend.

Had a nice visit with them and caught up on the last few years.  They are about 40 miles from where we are now at this RV Park near Bellville, TX.
