The Long Way Home




Whenever we go to the Orlando airport, we go a different route.  We don’t know why.  We just follow the GPS which we call Betsy.

On the way home from the Orlando airport with Sarah, the GPS led us through the back roads of Florida.

We were out in the middle of nowhere.  We even were taken through a construction area where there was only one lane for quite a while.  If there had been a car coming in the other direction we wouldn’t have known what to do.

We had gone quite a way and had no idea where we were but we had to continue following Betsy.  Barb was very frustrated with Betsy.

Finally, we got on a highway that we recognized.  We knew our way home from there.

Barb looked at the settings on Betsy.  She noticed that Betsy was set on “shortest distance” not “fastest route”.  That was why we were sent across country and not on a highway.
