Never Get Lost Again!

How To Find Your Way Without Someone Riding Shotgun!  

 

Has this happened to you?  Picture this.  You’ve piled the whole family into the car for a weekend adventure.  You are absolutely certain that you know exactly where you are headed.  Yeah right!

 

After taking the third wrong turn and ending up miles away from your destination you finally acquiesce to your partner who is riding shotgun that maybe you can’t find your way out of a paper bag!

 

This is the right time to stop and ask for directions (duh) or, perish the thought, buy a map!

 

There probably isn’t a single person who drives that hasn’t gone through some variation of that scenario.  The good news is that the only harm done is arriving at the destination a bit later than planned.

 

But, what about those situations where it’s a bit more than just light-hearted humor?  What if you become lost while hiking a trail in the mountains?  Or, your boating adventure becomes life threatening.

 

These are situations that are no laughing matter.  It happens frequently every year.  The headlines have us riveted to the television screen while we watch rescue workers attempting to save someone from a treacherous event.

 

You need to prepare yourself and your loved ones for the unknown disaster.  No one ever ‘plans’ to place him or herself in a position that requires rescuing.   The thing to do is insure that you are always prepared for any eventuality.
