You Can't Get There From Here

 Day 32 -- Monday, August 30, 2021

In less than four hours Sweet Georgia Brown should be back to her home in Livingston, completing the trip to Santa Fe and the Enchanted Circle of New Mexico.  We leave Navarro Mills Lake around 10 o'clock in the morning, saying "Goodbye" to our friend at the check-in gate.

Driving on Hwy. 31 East, and guided by the GPS, we take the exit to Corsicana.  But we don't go very far before -- Oops! -- the road is closed!  There is no where to back up, no re-routing, so there is no alternative but to drive a few feet forward, then a few feet backward, repeating about six times until we get turned around and drive the wrong way on the exit ramp to return to Hwy. 31 East.  I was beginning to think, "You can't get there from here!"

Tire tracks show that we are not the first ones to be fooled by thinking this is a real exit.  

Could this have been done a different way?  I think we need to alert the Texas Department of Transportation. 

We do find our way back to Livingston.  News on TV shows some storm damage as Hurricane Ida is still battering the Gulf Coast.

I think Sweet Georgia Brown is glad to be home, but looking forward to her next trip.
