Keeping the Windmill Alive - Your last trip? - December 2012

Had a interview at a company 22 miles from home. It took about 1/2 hour to get there.

Glad my topic is still going!
Took my Garmin to AZ and it's coming in handy.

Bed to bathroom last 2 days. Been sick No GPS required...

Huntsville, Tx to watch our grandson gratuate from Sam Houston University. Received a degree in music.

Driving to visit the wife's side of the family on Sunday for Christmas to CLE from Troy - should be a nice trip.

I heard of a restaurant in Ashtabula, Ohio, that my wife and I haven't been to, so we just took a ride there to check it out. We didn't go in, just kind of drove by it for future reference.

Wine country

Christmas shopping all around the sf bay area looking for traveler gifts at places like Edwards Luggage, Going In Style, REI, Container Store, etc.

Yup, Christmas shopping at the mall - not a favourite trip.

Thanks

DC to Rochester, NY.

Work, home, work, home, work, home. Yea that's about it. Can't wait for the holidays when I can use it for some real travel!

...without GPS. The road map technique worked but it was a pain. Much easier w/ GPS. Patiently awaiting delivery of Nuvi 2460.

I'm planning trip to canada and looking for good poi's

ATL- Actually remembered to take the Garmin when we flew into Atlanta for a day this week - night and day difference between using the smartphone last time! I'll remember the Garmin from now on!!!

Somehow we drove 110 miles, including our favorite Mexican place that is so out of our way.

wonderful day, y'all

trip of the year by updating the POIs we use. Headed to California to spend New years with family!

no trip, just updated my complete NA maps onto an 8gb SD card

The wife and I drove over to the coast for lunch. 425 mi R/T.

no major travels this week, just shopping, work, and errands. Getting ready for Christmas like most everyone else!

For the holidays.

Went from Phoenix to San Francisco, and the Garmin 2490 LMT did a great job, and thank heavens for the speed cam and redlight cam database!

Staying home and off the road, too many crazy folks driving now getting that last gift.

Going to NorCal this Xmas.

Went from Clovis, New Mexico to El Paso, Texas, and return. 595 miles round trip. Just got home & I am blitzed...

Great Fall, Virginia.

Crusing around for Christmas.

I started my lst trip on Dec 2nd and still going. i travelled 4710 km from eastern Canada to New Port Richey fl and will be travelling around florida for the next 4 months before starting the long trip home to my little island in the atlantic. So far my 3760 has not let me down. I feel quite confortable with my gps on the dash and will venture anywhere.

I had to travel to a work site in Boise Idaho this past week. One of my managers told me not to rely on GPS to get me to the site as his guided him into a residential neighborhood miles from our work site.

I asked what GPS he was using and he replied he has a TomTom. I've always used Garmin so I thanked him for his advice and entered the address in my Garmin 1490 which took me directly to the work site with no trouble.

Crazy bad weather this weekend, but navigated around some bad accidents

Just returned from a cruise through the Panama Canal and then on to South America.
Now am dealing with jet lag.

3 hour trip to visit with family this weekend. The GPS guided me without problems as usual on this particular trip. I could drive it with my eyes closed but I do use the GPS to keep tabs on traffic and destination time.

CT to NJ via NY then back to CT from NJ via NY. Traffic reroute saved me 30 mins easy.

We are headed to Frankenmuth! The Christmas and roasted chicken wonderland!

windmill

...all over Los Angeles' East San Gabriel Valley!

No more Christmas shopping, don't know what the Boxing Day sales might bring though.

to grandmother's house we go. The horse knows the way to carry the sleigh over the new fallen snow ... but I'm still taking my GPS ... why? Because I can.

Heading up towards Rochester and Buffalo and then swing into Toronto Canada

time to visit family. Thanks to this who maintain so many of the POIs that help on these trips!

Pasadena, MD to Columbus, OH.

Spent 6 days in Ft Lauderdale on a golf trip with 31 other men. Flew down and rented a mini van. Brought one of my GPSrs to navigate to the courses. Great trip. Please no inquiries asking how I played.

Trip over to Fort Walton Beach FL. A lot cooler in this part of FL. Coat required.

all around Napa, CA.

Went to AC NJ. As good as the Garmin is, I still found myself looking up POI's on my Android Tablet w/Google Maps & then entering in those locations into the Garmin to get there. I could have used Google Maps to navigate but it's hard to hold a tablet in your lap and drive.

Looking for a store in a snow storm.

Just around town this week...

Boston and surrounding areas.

Trip from DC to Baltimore
