GPS - awesome!

DadOf3 found the perfect birthday present for me this year: a GPS! Those of you who know me in "real life" know how much use I will get out of my new little box of directions! I could get lost in a paper bag.

In the 7 1/2 years we have been here, our fair city has built a fair number of toll roads. I don't like toll roads. I avoid them at all cost, but with my sense of direction (or lack thereof) I find myself mistakenly on these toll roads every once in a while. (My avoidance of these roads is my own personal boycott because the city was attempting to make already created roads into toll roads - they didn't end up doing it but it irritated me enough to not want to use their new roads.) My new little toy actually has an "avoid toll road" setting! Neat! We are going to take my new GPS out for a "test drive" tonight! I will let you know how it goes!
