fun times

we were on our way to a book launch
in Federal Way
We had the directions printed out from hubby who has that kind of  a map brain
( so no need for the GPS...which we did not know how to use on this new car )

We gave ourselves an hour and a half. Never know about morning traffic.

We had lots to talk about and felt like we also had lots of time, and we did.
In fact, we had time to stop for coffee and a potty break if we came upon a McDonald's.

For some reason, we thought we MIGHT have missed  a turn. 
 No McDonald's in sight. We went a little farther and then since we couldn't find any better spot, we pulled into the Arco station.   

A kind gentleman was able to figure out where we were going and yes, we had missed our turn.  No worries. Plenty of time.

We turn around and I begin to play with the GPS and bingo...we found out where we were and where we were going !  Right up to the final turn. 

We pulled into the driveway of our destination and someone peeked out the front window, but did not come to the door.   I got out and went  a few steps to the street to see where the landmarks were.  "Just past the two power boxes."
No power boxes, but a view of the house number. OOPS.  12204, not 12240.

We quickly jump back into the car and head down the street a few more blocks.  Laughing all the way  
There were the power boxes and the long driveway and...

The destination !

BTW.  no wrong turns on the way back
and we don't remember any wrong turns getting there

Fun, Friendship,Food  
Doesn't get any better on an ordinary day in life   


and I do live an exciting life
