Today was my first trip with my new GPS. Today was the day we could pick up the girls from the breeder. I came home first to grab the holiday card then went on my way. Unfortunately the way we normally go was closed due to flooding. I did not have my GPS with me, pat did not answer the million calls for directions. This left me running home for the GPS (and kicking myself for not bringing it in the first place).
Setting up a new GPS requires standing outside, the GPS must have a clear view of the sky. It says it takes a few minutes. It took at least 10 and started over at least 3 times, with twice as many steps backwards. At least it was a one time thing.
I took an educated guess that I could take a right at the blockade (something i would not have risked without a GPS). I hit the detour button when I approached the turn and it took me around the creek to another bridge. The road was small and slippery, even on a dry day it should be avoided and I will not go on it again unless I absolutely have to.
The rest of the drive was uneventful. The girls are back home and unaware of the adventure I went through to get them.
