OK I'll make the sacrifice. I'll take the next three months to check out and test some of the POIs I've been working so hard to get into my Garmin. It won't be easy but it will be warm We're starting for Florida tomorrow and will be camping on the way down and here and there through out the state. We may even do some exploring westward. Thanks to all for preparing and keeping the files up to date. I'm sure they will cut down on our usual aimless wandering.
Or Make More Aimless Wandering
Who knows. You might just do some more aimless wandering, now that you have so many new POIs. LOL

Some interesting finds
Planned aimless wandering is fun, unplanned aimless wandering can strain a marriage.
We found one rest area that needs to be marked as closed and one needing to be added. We'll confirm the details and let the maintainer know. The school zone alert, the way I have it set up, is useless. We went through several with no alert given. I had about decided that it wasn't working at all when I got an alert right snack dab in the middle of I-95 just north of the Florida state line. Couldn't see a school anywhere. I know POI Factory has no control but I thought it was an interesting anomaly.

Missing Post Offices
The two post offices we chose to receive our forwarded mail so far are not in our garmin. Time to download a POI Factory POI. One of them is also missing from that POI. La Belle, FL is not that small a town! And the PO looks to have been there forever. Too bad we can't make changes to that file.
