Yes it does.  Remember that I travel, and send email various ways from

  A.  Good point.
He even said the spot exists and told me how to rent it.
This worries me.  I sent him the payment a couple of weeks ago.  I hope he 
got it.
  Hmmm, well, as of this writing, I have no response from Norm to my never 
mind message.  I'm not sure if that's good, bad, or indifferent.  (Or maybe 
he's on a SORBS IP now too.)  I dunno, you might want to email him yourself 
maddog just to be sure.  Goodness knows I haven't had much luck with email 
lately...

According to the above, I believe we are in the American Legion Bingo 
Hall (building #16 on the map).  Good to know.
I am not sure about that.  It looks too far down toward the race track.
But we are certainly one of the three of 16, 17 or 18.
  Well...
  First, let me point out that the HSFair.org map is flipped vertically 
compared to standard maps, that is, North is more-or-less at the *bottom* of 
the map.  South is up, West is right, and East is left.

  Now, as I recall, our building is at the intersection of two roads. 
The only thing between our building and the North-South road was a covered 
pavilion structure with a bunch of picnic tables.  I don't think that 
qualifies as a building at all.  I certainly don't think of it as a bingo 
hall.

  Now, to the West of our building is that vendor that sells all the big junk 
(even for Hosstraders, it's big junk -- they usually have a forklift to move 
it around).  If we are building 16, that guy would be building 17.  Then the 
next one over would be 18, which is the building with one of the tube guys and 
the guy with the really bright LED flashlights.  Then another road.  Next 
building would be 19, the farm museum. All this tracks with my memory so far.

  This would also put us diagonally across from the sugar house, which doubles 
as the ATM house -- again on track with me memory.  There aren't any other 
buildings North (down on map) of us past that, which again matches the map.

  South (up on map) of us, there is that building that is perpendicular to our 
own -- again matching the map (#23).  No other set of North-South long 
buildings appears on the map.

  So I'm pretty sure we're in building #16.
  But I could still be wrong.  And often am.  Especially lately.  Who knows, 
maybe HSFair subscribes to SORBS too.  ;-)

I usually park my Jeep right to the left of the building.
  Right to the left.  Got it.  ;-)  J/K
