New Toy 1

I cashed in some AmEx rewards points and got myself a toy. It’s a Garmin Nuvi 205.

Garmin Nuvi 205

It’s not that I need a GPS. I actually like maps.

One of my conceits is that, whenever I drive into a state, I’ll stop at the welcome center and get the current official state highway map (Va., Md., Pa., and NJ excepted, because I drive into them frequently).

So this is definitely a toy. And it was already paid for.

I took it for a spin today. I think it’s going to be a lot of fun.

No, I don’t leave it in the vehicle.

    I certainly hope Chris doesn’t see this. He’s been complaining forever about getting lost, having to use a Mapsco, or read a print out from Mapquest. He even said something about it telling of traffic tie ups & ways to get around them. He wants one of these, & I’ve not given in.
