Finding the Way

     Have you ever had to go somewhere and had no idea where you were going? It's like you're driving aimlessly as Siri (or whatever/ whoever your navigation system) guide you into the abyss.

Siri could have led me to Jamaica and I wouldn't have known the difference. When I exited to Hammond, fear began setting in because I didn't know my way.
