We used to think that everybody took their vacation in the warm summer months , but we were wrong with that assumption, there are a multitude of people who take their vacation during the other seasons including the fall season.

In North America which is Canada and the United States, a large portion of those taking a fall vacation like to go on fall colors tours.
Having lived in the northern United States and Canada I personally despise the fall season. One reason is it's the end of summer and the end of warm weather and summer fun. Another reason is we had 14 trees on our property, therefore I have acquired a strong aversion to leaves changing color and falling. Which requires raking and bagging 60ish paper bags of leaves that you also have to keep dry before the curbside pickup so that the bags are not wet and break.

If it were not for the approximately 1,200 total bags of leaves over 20 years, and the blister raising raking that we had to toil with, I too might enjoy the fall colors vacation.

We have joked about this before, but apparently it is not a joke, but it is actually true.

We have joked about men not asking for directions. Comedians have even done comedy material on men not stopping and asking for directions. Some Men would rather risk running out of gas before stopping and asking for directions. Not asking for directions is it a machismo testosterone thing?

Maybe men don't ask for driving directions because they were the hunters, and have an innate ability to find their way. A hunter couldn't just stop at another village and ask which way his village was, he might then become the hunted.

Or, maybe women are more prone to ask for directions because they like to talk(yak) to strangers and men do not.
It could also be a pride thing. A man can't let it be known that someone else knows something that he does not.

Now there appears to be factual information that women utilize directions and men do not.

On the website Alexa, which ranks a webpage by internet visits/popularity, they also give a gender breakdown of who visits MapQuest.
They report that approximately 20% of the MapQuest internet average are male, and that 99% of the internet average is females.
So who is lost or not lost?
