Perhaps you can post on a new book you're reading, a new hobby you're taking up or about random finds as you finally get around to cleaning out the..., or your most recent adventure?

Anything to keep your windmill alive.

Please keep comments polite.

I remember my dad saying he wished he had ordered our Buick station wagon, rather than to have taken it off the lot.

We truly are examples imho of that Progressive commercial, where we become our parents.

It's not a bad thing--I'd like to think we pick up their good qualities.

This is the day to honor our fallen heroes who died in the service of our nation. I remember two of those incredible soldiers. Jerry Day Leak was one, died in battle in Vietnam on February 28,1968; and Ronald Perry Coates who died in Vietnam on July 24, 1966. I went to school with both of these guys. I also went to Vietnam. I came back. They didn’t!

Hey everyone....it has been quite a long time since I was last on here, lost my original login info, so I had to start over. Anyway, I'll be putting together a new POI file to coincide with and upcoming Route 66 guide that has been submitted to a publisher.

A little context, we're planning on getting a new car and it will take 4 mos as planning to order it (GM).

The 2350LMT no longer works.

Should we buy a Drive 53 Traffic and load it with the POI file for rlcs?

The new car will have Android Auto and Apple Carplay.

I've heard Apple maps has rlcs.

Apple released a new version of iPadOS for older models, including important security updates
