These shouldn\u2019t-have-taken roads, have provided the fodder for funny stories and lots of laughter\u2026later.<\/p>\n<p>Our first mistakenly traveled road, occurred in Georgia when we left the Whistle Stop Caf\u00e9 (think \u201cFried Green Tomatoes\u201d).\u00a0 I thought I could find my way out of the various roads in search of I-85. Turning left, those trees didn\u2019t look right. I made a U Turn, headed the opposite direction where, once again, those trees didn\u2019t look right nor had we planned on visiting an area plantation.<\/p>\n<p>Eventually, I wound my way back and stopped in front of the Whistle Stop Caf\u00e9. My snoozing husband, woke up, asked if I needed the restroom. No, I\u2019m trying to find my way out of this friggin\u2019 area. Following the provided directions, we found I-85! We received a Garmin that Christmas.<\/p>\n<p>Our next \u201cmistaken\u201d road happened in California. With son Adam at the wheel, we headed over a crazy, curvy mountain pass in the wine country. Once safely on the other side, vineyard staff commented, \u201cEven the locals don\u2019t take that road!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Not to be outdone by either of these states, we had our own Colorado adventure. With directions loaded into our Waze app, we headed west on I-70 for a 10<sup>th<\/sup> Mountain Division Memorial Day Celebration in the High Country. We entered Tennessee Pass into Waze, were told to turn onto East Tennessee Pass Road, and, so we did. Bouncing over deep ruts, scraping shrub bushes on either side, periodic dips full of water on this rough road, Waze announced we\u2019d reach our destination! Really?!<\/p>\n<p>Recalculate! We made a U Turn, traveled 13 miles back to find the correct destination \u2013 Camp Hale, home of the 10<sup>th<\/sup> Mountain Division.<\/p>\n<p>Specifics can make a difference!
