Car is packed ready to go the 618 miles from Kentucky to
our former home in Pennsylvania. It’s my 40th class reunion, and
a Penn State football game in Beaver Stadium with over
100,000 fans, the marching band, the cheerleaders,
twirlers, Lion mascot as the maples turn orange.
homebase is my brother Rick house in Allentown
made famous by Billy Joel’s song.

Jim took the wheel while I dozed in the shotgun.
usually assigned the navigator role
dictating the turns and exits
this time I left it to Siri on the well routed GPS.
waking I asked, have we gone through Maryland yet?

Maryland ? We’re supposed to go through Maryland??
Where are we? 
I don’t know!
Didn’t you listen to Siri? 
she quit talking.
Get off at that rest area.
 OMG, We are two hours in the wrong direction !!!
