Ok I just wanted to write a quick note about technology. I have a GPS that I pair with my Smartphone as such:  GPSPlus Sign Smt5800

Now, the problem is, if you don't input the address in correctly, it doesn't matter WHAT technology you have.

Here's the conversation that took place the other day while I was doing the last of my tours:

 

Me: "Um... I need help, can you check my notes for the address for the 3rd property I am supposed to be at today? I think I may be in the wrong place..."

*as a nice looking lady starts walking up to my window*

Wife: "Ok honey, the address I have for this property is ***** N. **** Road (disguised to protect the innocent), do I hear somebody yelling at you in the background?"

Me: "Yeah this lady seems to think she could be my best 'friend,' whatever that means... Oh, yeah hold on a second I am WAY off, I had ***** N. **** Street"

Wife: "Um, it's 'Road' not 'Street,' honey, wait you're on ***** N. **** Street?!?!? Please tell me you're leaving there quickly, you know what part of town that is?

Me: "I think I can guess, ok off to ***** N. **** Road, which is 15 miles west of here... ugh."

 

Ok, I'm not THAT naive, I knew EXACTLY what she was um, offering. BUT point is, because of my lack of writing the correct address down, I was 15 miles on the wrong side of the tracks, literally, rendering my GPS/Phone useless. I'm glad my wife was available to take my call! I love you honey!
