Keeping The Windmill Alive - Your Last Trip? – November 2019

 

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.

This thread will be closed on the last day of the month and a new one will be opened.

Took a fishing trip around some of the lakes around Frostproof, Avon Park, and Sebring in Central Florida. Once again the loaded POI's from this site were great.

Lunch Last Friday

In Aiken, SC

Well, did my annual drive

to Mexico and I went via Louisville, Ky to check out some Bourbon distilleries. Liked the "Buffalo Trace" one.
But I'm finding that to me Bourbon is like wine. I can buy some inexpensive wine and find it quite pleasant to my taste. I can buy a 1.75 L bottle of Kentucky Gentleman at Walgreen for $14.99 and happily drink it straight up. Though purist poo poo this KG stuff.

Two Years of Mileage in Less than a Year

Seem that we are hitting the road this year. In July we drove to the Grand Canyon (North Rim) and back. At the End of October we drove to Boston and back. This does not include several trips to Cleveland, TN (Chattanooga) to visit our daughter there. Maybe we will get a couple more trips before the end of the year.

As an interesting aside. We had to get a new Subaru Forester as our prior one was smashed while we were visiting our daughter in Cleveland, TN.

The new Subaru has a slightly larger gas tank, slightly better gas mileage. That has really made a big difference, in terms of selecting our re-fueling stops. Surprisingly, we were able to avoid getting gas while at the Grand Canyon, until we got to Page, AZ. By then the fuel gauge was on a nail biting empty. But then it was all down-hill so we had some great mileage. In fact, following one downhill refueling stop, the cars estimated range hit 580 miles. Too bad that was a one-off.
