Hi, I know this has happened to all of you many times, but it was a first for 
me.  I mostly use my GPS with pedestrian routes, creating them and then 
following by walking with my Seeing-Eye dog, Velvet.  But the other day I was 
traveling to a friend's house by bus.  I told the driver where I wanted to get 
off, and I also set repeat cross streets.  I saw Perkins Street come up, and 
said, "Oh, this is my stop."  By the way the driver responded, I could tell 
that he'd forgotten that he told me that he'd call out the stop.  I hadn't 
traveled that route before, so I really didn't know how long the ride would be. 
 What a thrill!  And I got off, crossed the street, took a right, and walked 
directly to the house.  Yippie!
