I'm from Chicago originally. And I learned left from right on that
lakefront.
The distinction had given me a lot of trouble. I remember saying to
one of my parents, okay, let's settle this. Which way is left and
which way is right?
I was on the beach, looking north. Left, it turned out, was toward
land, right was toward the lake. I never forgot again. That image is
still in my mind.
