We drove back to Calgary on Sunday and the drive was boring as hell. Cody got a Garmin GPS navigator for Christmas and he plugged it in at the Crowsnest Pass. It was telling us to go down this side road off Hwy 22 and when where we got on 533 it kept telling us to take these range roads. The roads would've led us to Hwy 2, but it's not like we are going to turn down a gravel road. I think the thing was trying to kill us. It tells you to turn down a side road and the next thing you know you're going off a cliff in a rock quarry.
Christmas was okay because I got to eat steak and turkey. I was disappointed I didn't get any socks this year because I actually needed some. First year ever without socks! I did get a vegetable peeler and not any vegetable peeler, but a ceramic vegetable peeler. Doesn't much matter because I'll never use it! I'm not one to eat vegetables and if I actually have to peel them, then forget it!
Even though Cody's GPS is for cars you can still take it out and use it as a regular GPS, so maybe we'll try some geocaching once the snow melts and it warms up. If you ever wanted to know the co-ordinates of our couch are N51 01.3211' and W114 09.411'. If you can find it then you can probably find us.

well illustrated Keith,
who got you a veggie peeler? does it also kill zombies?
I have a wall of GPS nav stories, people should probably look up once in awhile even if it tells you where to go.. Cody probably got the Ghost in the Shell edition..
We were watching the news and they had a story about some old people in Oregon and their GPS (Skynet!) told them to turn down some side road and they blinded followed despite the fact that it was a blizzard out and the road wasn't even plowed. They just kept going and eventually got stuck where they stayed for two days before they could get a cell signal out.
Have some common sense people and pay attention to where you are driving once in a while.
