Highways in New Mexico
I've spent the last few days driving around New Mexico - Santa Fe, Los Alamos, down to Roswell and now Carlsbad. The trip has been quite enjoyable as I haven't been this way before.

Just saying hello
Hi All,
I'm new to the POI files, but they look very cool and I'm sure once I get the hang of these it should be very helpful.

I'm mostly looking for and want to create off road way points for exploring in a Jeep.

Windmills?
Oh the elusive icon. I've been a member for 46 weeks and relatively active. But not in the "posting" area. I get one or two weeks of active status then am traveling. So, I get no windmill. Oh woe is me.
Wilt thy windmill be soest mine? Nay perchance I do fully believe.

Red Light Cameras
Red light cameras are springing up all over. Too bad they have little positive impact on safety. But, in these tough economic times they are certainly a way around "raising taxes".
