Many of you may know that the High Street Bridge is one of the favored access routes to
downtown Muncie. It connects Wheeling Avenue from the north end of town to High Street,
bringing you to all the east/west streets through town...namely Jackson, which runs right
past the Muncie Public Library. If you aren't familiar with Muncie, this might not
mean much to you. Either way, if you plan on coming into town from the north, via
Wheeling Avenue, you might want to consider taking Walnut (south) instead of Wheeling.
However, if you really prefer the Wheeling route, you'd want to turn right at the
bridge construction, take White River Blvd. west to Jackson Street and turn east (left).
Not so bad.
For those interested, I've enclosed a link for the article in yesterdays Muncie Star
Press.

For those of you who haven't discovered it, a great map is provided on the GenFest
2005 site. A direct link (below) will give you a great view of the area.

PLEASE NOTE: Muncie Public Library has several branches, as the map above shows. GenFest
2005 is being held at the main building, Carnegie Library and the Local History and
Genealogy Center downtown on Jackson. It's actually the easiest one to find.

Also, I am almost done with a list of other interesting places to go in Delaware and all
the surrounding counties. As soon as I finish that, Lynne King, the miracle working
webmaster for MPL will post it. I'd like to take this chance to thank Lynne for all
her help.
