Been to the Carthage caves, but the wierdest/funnest delivery was to Madeline Island on lake Superior. Had to take a fairy from Bayfield, WI and the fee was $416.50 cash, no Comchecks accepted.
Weirdest place to deliver?

Weird or strange you pick but 2 that come to mind are Silvercliff CO south and west of Canon City. It was a log cabin being built above the tree line, side note, what idiot does that? We were at 13,500 feet in elevation
Second one was a load of steel framing joists for sheetrock walls. Went to a new shopping mall being built in Cold Spring Alberta. The directions were go north on road XXX and turn right when the road ends. The right turn went into a cow pasture where the cows and construction were going on together -
The 3rd floor of a building! Yup the 3rd floor, of a convention center. Drove up a ramp then around a semi circle & blind side in.

The Kraft caves in Missouri. Talk about a different world! The most random place that I delivered to? In the middle of a field in Colorado Springs.
-
Yep them Kraft caves in MO. I have both delivered and picked up from the ones in the springfield area when I ran for Prime.

The cave up near Quincy IL is still an active mine. Thin barrier wall separates the cold storage from the access for the HUMONGOUS mine dump trucks.
Independence MO is the worst.... barely removed from a mine, very sharp corners, low ceiling and DARK! -
lac Jeanine, Quebec,CA 432 miles or 696km North of Montreal, Delivered to a place that was no more than a Kwansanhut 3 people out there in the Middle of Nowhere. Road signs what road signs. Freezin freaking cold middle of December. Delivering corn, 44,000lbs of it. They hand unloaded the whole trailer, Roads were miserable, and not one person spoke English, except me.

I had to go out to Martha's Vineyard. I didn't get to just drive right up on the big ferry, I had to back up on the deck of this smaller ferry. It was early morning and the lighting was pretty poor, but I hit the spot they wanted me to on the first try (got pretty lucky). The loading area is a zoo and I would never want to do that again, but I guess I can say I've done it.
