Poor sense of direction
12th April 2011
I had great intentions to go to North mayo today and visit one or two places that my friend Monica has shown me in the past, i never seem to get the weather when i go , but today the weather was OK so I said I would go. Then I discovered the charger for the Sat Nav was broken. I have a very poor sense of direction and while I could have gone anyway , I probably would not have found all the lovely places I wanted to visit, so I spent the day in the garden!!. Its amazing how dependent on technology some of us have become, I used to be able to remember phone numbers, now I don’t have to, the phone does it for me, and similarly with the Sat Nav, it really is a most useful piece of photographic equipment. Mayo has many many very rural spots and I often drive around exploring, then when I find something worth photographing I put it in the Sat Nav to revisit maybe when the “light is right” I have not always been clear in my place naming and so my Sat Nav now has places like “lonely tree” or “Nephin Pano “or even just “pano!! These seemed like great titles at the time but six months later I have no idea what they mean.
