on the way to New Mexico

Trip to New Mexico

Purpose: to see Grandma Bobbie


Driver: Whitney



D.J: Erin

Navigator: Darla (faithful GPS System)

Started out 8:30 Friday morning. Full tank of gas, fabulous c.d collection, a.c cranked, cooler jam-packed full of healthy goodies, and off we went. We had a jolly ol’ time singing old favorites at the top of our lungs. After being in the car for hours, and had not reached Moab yet, we decided to pull over and fill up and stretch our legs. I noticed the sign we were next to said, “Welcome to Colorado!”.
“Hmmmmm….. Colorado? Whit, isn’t Moab in Utah?”
“Yeah why?”
“Well then why are we in Colorado?”
Blank look.
“Whit, did you turn Darla on?”
“No….. ha! Crap!!”
“Let’s turn her on and see how far off track we went….”
We drove 2 hours off our road to see Grandma Bobbie. We turned Darla on and headed back. Soon all we saw was this…….


We were a tad nervous and we hoped that Darla knew what she was talking about…
Soon we saw this….



Yup, we found our way to Moab, and then we relied on Darla the rest of the way. The weekend was big fun! After we made it 2 hours late…
We had fun! there is never a dull moment when you get Whit and I together. Oh, and thanks Darla! ;P
