STOCKTON, Calif. — 90-year old Betsy Brotby is right back where she wants to be in her North Stockton home, hanging with her dogs Mya, Gracie and Nino. But, she went missing for 28 anxious hours, Sunday.

"Terrifying, one word. To be driving and be lost when you know it's your town. I couldn't find home," said Brotby, a retired secretary who worked at San Joaquin Delta College.

Brotby left home around noon Sunday and drove to the Trinity Parkway shopping area in North Stockton. She had somehow ended up in Altaville, near Angels Camp, and then to El Dorado Hills just east of Sacramento.

Brotby only remembers bits and pieces of her journey, like meeting "nice people" and driving around snow. But, she admits she noticed becoming forgetful more often about a year ago when she was having trouble driving to her dentist. "I suppose I should say we ought to quit driving earlier, but I wasn't about to say that," said Brotby.

After her frightening ordeal, Betsy has decided to hang up her car keys for good. From now on, her daughters will take over the driving duties.

Glad Ms. Betsy is safe.
