Car compass

Last week on the way to downtown I found my main east/west road was closed. Trying to avoid a two mile drive to and from the next e/w main road I ducked into the residential area nearby. This is a dry agricultural area so there are lots of irrigation ditches and I kept getting blocked by them. Quickly became lost. Finally ended up on the next main road I was trying to avoid driving to but with many side trips on the way. sigh I had wished I had a compass. Can you still put one in the car? There used to be many more places to fasten one around the windshield than nowdays on a modern car. I got turned around one dark night, and ended up way off my route. Walmart has car compass, several versions, in the auto parts section. Actually, most auto parts stores should have compass. I have a magnetic compass in both vehicles. Daytime, you can ballpark the direction by where is the sun, and what time is it. - .. Christopher A. Young learn more about Jesus .. www.lds.org .. .. |
