Bad GPS





It got really cold last night and we were freezing! So today we broke down and decided we can’t wait any longer. We found the local thrift shop and found some good deals on some warm clothing. No more freezing in our motorhome.

Then we had to go back to the laundromat to do one more load of laundry. Because, of course, you cant wear clothes you buy without washing them first. Ask Bernie. And now our new clothes smell so good.

Then we decided to go to find the store called Sugar Hill Sampler because we saw an ad for their beer bread. We love beer bread, it is really good and really easy to make. On the way there we saw Polly's Pancakes Parlor. Bernie wanted to stop but they were already closed. Bummer.

Then we decided it was time to leave NH and headed out to ME. Our next stop is Canada, we are going to Nova Scotia. We put in the address for the border crossing in ME in our trusty GPS and headed out. Next thing we knew we were driving around in circles and wasting time.

Then our GPS did the unthinkable and sent us down a dead end road. It was a dark, narrow road with big steel drums blocking the way. Not good. We were frazzled and upset. Finally we just stopped for the night at the Walmart in Mexico, ME.

We can just hope that tomorrow will be a better day to get to where we’re going.
