In danger of losing your windmill?
Maybe you can share the last place your GPS took you and if you encountered any problems, or if you used it to seek out special places to go (like Thai Food, ice cream shoppes, etc.).
Anything to keep your windmill alive.

Speed Warnings?
Brand new unit came factory set for speed warning at 5 mph over posted...who knew I'd been speeding all these years on my old unit!

Colorado
My last trip was from Houston TX to Colorado for a short five day road trip.
I was in such a rush that I forgot to pack the Garmin and didn't realize it till I was picking up my rental car.
Ended up doing the trip with Waze on my cell phone but needless to say I missed the Garmin especially when I was up in the mountains and didn't have a signal.
I won't make that mistake again.
Texas
exploring Port Arthur to Houston for the moment..
Yet another VC visit--
Yet another vulture (venture) capital visit for our startup venture, but this one might be good news -- they got it and we spent time talking about what we need.
Time will tell, but I'm optimistic.
And my Nuvi didn't help -- they're in an industrial park that didn't exist a few months ago, so the address isn't recognized!
It did help me get home though.

Just finished a 3000 mile trip
My annual fall drive to Mexico. Visited friends in Wichita and from there ran into the leftover heavy rains from Mexico from Dallas to San Antonio. Fortunately I took the toll roads bypassing all and did not get stuck on I-35 and its flooded roads.
Now happily in Mexico at just under 90deg sunshine.

Maryland
Going to MD after Thanksgiving for my twins grandsons birthday. They are now 14.
Bob: My toys: Nüvi 1390T, Droid X2, Nook Color (rooted), Motorola Xoom, Kindle 2, a Yo-Yo and a Slinky. Gotta have toys.
Horseback riding around
Kingsport, TN to Moses Cone Memorial Park, Blowing Rock, NC for a day of horseback riding. Great weather!
I've never gone riding there, but I've been up that way many times, it's really beautiful country.
Very beautiful. Can't wait to go back. As long as it's not snowing.

Hmmmmm .....
Last weeks keep alive post did not make it. Hopefully this one does.
SoCal to Colorado
Thursday to Monday. Get to see early snow.

Thanksgiving
Heading from California to Florida for Thanksgiving. Will use the nüvi 760 to get around in Florida and the GPSMAP78s to find a few geocaches while there.
The bad part is the flights to and from Florida - I do NOT fit in those seats! The good part is family for Thanksgiving and 11 days in a row off work.
