    Mobile data usage

    After not using it for a long time, I activated a new data plan on my iPad and have been using it in the car with my app for the past few days. This is not very scientific, but after about four hours the app used 430MB of data. Perhaps 67% of the usage was slow driving on unpaved roads with...

    Crescent Moon

    Anybody else see the spectacular thin crescent moon early this morning? It was facing up, like a cup (the bottom of the moon was illuminated and the top was dark). Stopped right in the middle of the road and took this through the windshield with my phone. Photo really doesn't do justice to it...

    Garmin discontinues the Oregon series and some others

    No more Oregons and the Montana 600 series is also gone, now they only have the very expensive, huge Montana 700 "bricks". Wonder if this is just a sign of the shrinking market or if some new series is on the way? https://www.garmin.com/en-US/c/outdoor-recreation/handheld-hiking-gps/
