Haha, they don't even have any stop lights! And the only restaurant is Pal's Diner. They do have a nice-sized school, though.

Have you heard of Ackerley? That's an even teeny-tinier town close to Lamesa where my aunt lives. I think there are five streets in the whole town...

I know that town. Driven through it many a time for volleyball trips or visits to Lubbock. :) Even stopped a few times. ;)
