you gotta have a plan, stan...

March 17, 2018 Arlene Giddings

I think we all know that I love PEI...
and that I like to take random drives
with my camera and a healthy supply of diet coke
and candy...and sometimes doughnuts...
I usually go alone, sometimes with a friend...
and I usually end up documenting it here
or on my facebook page...

Last Saturday, I went to meet some friends
at the PEI Writer's Guild Winter Sociable
at Upstreet Craft Brewery
which was so much fun!

I stopped at Indigo beforehand
and bought a map of PEI.
The kid that rang me in said
"I hope you don't get lost"
as he handed me my map...
I said "The funny thing is
I have lived on PEI my whole life."

He looked puzzled.

"So...why are you buy a map then??
Do you have friends coming to visit?"

And I'm like "I want to drive EVERY road
on PEI and then use a highlighter to mark
what roads I have been on so I can keep track..."
at the same time thinking this sounds weird to say out loud.

He says "there's a facebook group for that!  Did you know
there's a waterfall on PEI??" and I'm like "I KNOWWWWWW!
I TOTALLY WANT TO FIND THAT!!!!" 
and then I don't feel so weird anymore.

So.
I bought my map and I came home
and thumbtacked it to the wall.
I highlighted the roads I took to
and from Charlottetown that day
and decided that I am going to start fresh...
I know I have travelled a lot of the other roads
but I going to start highlighting them from
this point on.

This is slightly unrelated...but...
photos I took on the way down...
:)
