I was cleaning out my car the other day. It’s normally a fairly tame task, in fact the only time it can get a little exciting is when cleaning out under the seats.

Amongst the spare change and a leaking ink pen, I fished out an old mainstay – a road map. I got a little nostalgic thinking about how things have changed from the last time I pulled out a road map, which is getting close to a decade ago. It was my tool for driving back and forth across the country while changing duty stations when I was in the military. The last line of defense from getting lost, and perhaps the only thing worse than getting lost….having to stop and ask for directions.
