when streets are hard to countwhen streets are hard to count

Go north several blocks. Turn left past the science building, just before the central cafeteria. Go west a few blocks. Nitobe's statue is on your right just before Poplar Avenue. You can lock your bike at the gate if you want to walk up to the poplar trees.

say "several" or "a few" when you don't know exactly how many
