Map Quest took me several hours out of my way and I wound up on the wrong side of the state!

Your story of the missing road reminded me of my son in Germany. He had to go around the block like 4 times because everytime someone told him to turn he missed it because he thought it was a sidewalk. I love waterfalls.. our vacation this summer is going to be checking out waterfalls and lighthouses in the UP (also known as the Upper Peninsula of Michigan).

On my second trip using it my car was broken into and they found my carefully concealed GPS under the passenger side seat. <br /><br />:(<br /><br />RIP GPSPennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09178833067912940139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4972951595926878159.post-58739041832978674582009-08-11T06:40:36.813-04:002009-08-11T06:40:36.813-04:00I found Connecticut to be similarly hazardous in f...I found Connecticut to be similarly hazardous in finding one's way to even the most simple destination. We actually bought a Garmin for our Poland trip. You see, there, if they are doing road construction (which of course, they always are, as the roads went to hell during its Communistic days) they leave you for dead. No helpful detour signs, nothing. In this particular case, it saved our skins more than once. We'd probably still be there if it weren't for that thing.Sandy Nawrothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00564390728106776030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4972951595926878159.post-1568947564622540292009-08-11T02:20:45.318-04:002009-08-11T02:20:45.318-04:00Yah, we always prepare for without gps traveling.Yah, we always prepare for without gps traveling.Dana Telecomhttp://telecommunicationstuff.blogspot.com/2009/08/shopping-trough-internet.htmlnoreply@blogger.com
