Leaving Boise and a Big Part of My Heart


It was hard to leave 
all those sweet faces.

We will be back and soon!

Long ride home but it gave us time to 
recover and plan our next trip.

COOL!
Oh yea, that's snow.

~*~*~*~

Now, this part of the post is a funny story.
(At least it was for us.)

Todd (son) and Stephanie gave me this GPS 
for my birthday. 
We practiced using it all the way down and back home.
We now are very proficient.

I like to give names to things, like rooms in our home, my car, etc.
Well, I named my GPS, Daisy.

When we were looking for a place to stop, rest or 
eat, we would pulled it up on Daisy.
Daisy would take us to the front door of any 
and everything we were looking for.
No more wondering where to go or going the wrong way.
No more stopping to ask for directions or guessing.


Tom calls this a marriage saver!
So he renamed the GPS,
 Miss Johnson,
the Marriage Counselor.


 Tom wants to give out GPS's as wedding gifts.

~sigh~

  3. I had to chuckle. I love my GPS but I never named it. Maybe I should. And yes, it does save my sanity when driving with my husband.

  5. I think giving a GPS as a wedding gift is a great idea. I like both of the names you chose for your new friend, and I am still smiling from your story. WE certainly have been saved alot since our GPS has come on the scene. We are happier traveling together now.

  13. Giggling about giving them as wedding gifts. I totally get that.

    My GPS is named gypsy, but I like to call it Dumbo's feather too. It gives me confidence to fly.
