Art imitating Life??

I was watching one of my favorite new shows on tv the other night and halfway through the show, the characters in the show (Stargate SG1) decide to take a road trip and they are on the highway and there is a sign that says 285South. That is the highway that leads to Roswell NM from the middle of the state......ok...so I am thinking they are going to Roswell. Cool. I took that exact road....but then...the trip continues........

......Yes......Roswell to Chicago. For those of you that dont know, part of my roadtrip out west last spring took me to Roswell. The trip home from NM followed the exact route that these characters took!!

The funniest thing was that while they were driving, a map would come up on the screen tracing their journey.

It could have been MY Road Atlas up on that tv screen!!The exact roads, higways, signs, towns that they stopped in or drove by....it was just too damm weird. As they are driving along, I am thinking...ok....this is the town they will past next...and sure enough they did!

After Ill, they ended up going on to New York (and get this....) and followed the "route" that I HAD mapped out on my original itinary.....if I had had just a little more time, I was planning on driving up to...and through New York, to visit a few former coworkers who are now living in Conn. where the corporate headquarters for my hotel company is.

Like I said before.....this was just too weird. Funny...the world we live in.
