One-Way Street Is The Last Resort

It would be hard to confuse Tish and Lyle Ashley's three-bedroom ranch-style Missouri home with a 150-acre vacation resort. But for the past two years, a lot of visitors have done just that. They've pulled their caravans, trailers and boats up the Ashleys' one-way street and become stuck, thanks to wayward directions from the computer search engine MapQuest. ``It's been going on for two or three years,'' Trish Ashley said. "We've had them from Nebraska, Wisconsin, Chicago and Minnesota.'' Even trucks trying to make deliveries to the resort have ended up on her street.
