[quote=Sparky83;7237536]sure is so long as ya actually find your way home... lol last time i got lost i had to call to find directions to a street i knew to get home... lol


Okay truth be told...coming back from louisville I decided I needed to stop at a truly super wal mart since ours here is only a weanie wal mart. I get on highway headin home have my mind just a wandering miss the ramp i needed and ended up on my way to Indianapolis.I saw a loves truckstop and freaked because I had never seen that on my way home. I go into major panic attack mode call daughter who is babysitting motel and she says oh your only a hundred miles out of your way but here is how you get home......I cried a bit (i hate to be lost) but then fell in love with the country roads I was on. The drive was amazing. So it was a good lost. I wanna go look at a farm that was for sale in Bunker Hill In. OMG to die for.


and just for the record I didnt keep autoglass "busy" like hibbidy jibbidy busy.....need to clarify for all my boys on here who suddenly pondered a road trip... I kept him busy talkin and partaking in the motel cat round up of sorts. My dang felines were everywhere in the office.
