I often 'frustrate' my wife by going off the beaten path (major roads)
onto back roads (I'll admit, sometimes done specifically for the value
of the 'frustration' part) to get "there" from "here" with no GPS nav
or pre-planning at all and in almost all instances I get "there" even
though the entire route is brand new for me.

This is excellent! Always going the same way, or driving the same route gets
very boring after a while. Sometimes when I walk a new path, I discover a new
store I didn't know existed.

That really happens when you walk instead of driving.  Not to mention
that if you're walking, it's okay to stop by at a store.  If you're
driving, it's not okay because (at least where I live), it's never easy
to find a parking place.  And you might not want to interrupt the song
that's playing or get out of the air conditioning.

This is the truth! I like walking. It is one of the few forms of exercise
I engage in. =) It is also relaxing and can almost be a bit meditative if
you get into it.
