I will admit...

I have been told many times I am stubburn, and I know I am.  I never thought is was a problem until the other day.  I realized that I need to not be so stubborn and accept help from others...or objects.  Here is my story:

I had somewhere I needed to go.  I had never been there before and I had absolutley no idea where it was.  But I had an address.  So I put the address in my trusty GPS and I was on my way.  Well...my GPS told me to take a right.  Me being...me...I thought it must be wrong and I chose not to listen.  I don't know why I thought it was wrong.  I had no clue where I was or where I was going but I figured I knew better.  Of course my GPS kept telling me to turn around but I figured if I kept driving it would eventually find a different route that I liked better.  But it kept telling me to turn around.  So I took a street that I thought looked like it might take me there. (Remember I had no idea where I was or where I was going.  How in the world would I know what street to take?  But I am stubburn)  So after a few times of me taking random streets that I thought would take me there I decided to listen to my trusty GPS.  So I turn around.  And of course it is taking me back to the original turn it told me to take.  But then...I see a road that maybe might get me there faster...so I take it.  HA HA HA HA...well...I should have just listened to my GPS.  Because I ended up doing this 4 more times and in the end just had to turn around.  So finally I followed me GPS and I made it there.  What would have taken me 20 minutes ended up taking me an hour.  All because I am so stubburn that I could not accept help...even from an object.

After I left I decided to chronicle my ride because there was some pretty...interesting things.  So on my way home I took pictures through the window while driving.  This is not a good idea.  It is not very safe.  But I did it any way.


The road I was on was a dirt road out in the middle of no where.  I was afraid someone was going to attack me and throw me in the woods and no one would find me.

I could just tell from the houses and lawn ornaments that there was quite a few Hillbillies leaving out there.

When I got on a normal road I felt safer.   I also realized why I love New Hampshire.  Because it is BEAUTIFUL!
Yes...that is a logging truck.  NEVER in Utah would I have had the chance to follow a logging truck.

Just a house that caught on fire.

This is a cemetary that I drive by about 3-4 times a week.  I can't wait to walk around it as soon as it is warm out.

The famous (or maybe not so famous) Welcome to Hillsborough sign!

I took a picture of me because if I died because I was being unsafe by taking picutres while driving...I wanted people to remember what I looked like.

Good times!  Good times!
