A few hours later I became concerned that she had not returned. I called her and asked where she was. She was approaching Cross City in North Florida. It turned out that her plan for returning was to press the "take me home" button on her GPS. It finally dawned on her that "home" for the GPS was in South Texas.

Oh no! That reminds me of when I brought a GPS out to our son and DIL when they first moved to Brooklyn. They went to a hockey game with friends. He hit Home afterward and drove an hour before realizing they were headed back to Michigan.
