I spent the last three days in Boise visiting the in-laws and checking out the area for a possible relocation. I realized when I got home last night, that the only thing I had used a computer for was to pull up Google Maps to get directions to a friend’s new house. Even more amazing was the fact that the only thing I used my PDA for all weekend was to do a little reading. Even my smartphone was largely unused as I pretended to ignore incoming email (I read a few, but replied to none).

It was actually kind of refreshing and helped to refresh my geek batteries some. The only thing I really wanted on the trip that I didn’t have was GPS for my PDA. I managed to leave my GPS receiver at home…doh!
