    Garmin discontinues the Oregon series and some others

    Guy, remember, I had that refurbished with a new screen, so maybe they still offer that. It was $80. They also repaired the button we press so often.

    Is that spam Boyd? I would not doubt it.

    Wet Forest - Formerly Known as Dry Forest

    Guy, maybe have Jess try my cooling method. I have a small cooler, maybe a gallon. In the bottom I throw in two terry cloth wrist bands and two neck bands (one for the forehead). I then cover them in a little water and fill the cooler with ice. When I leave the truck, I take them out and put...

    Wet Forest - Formerly Known as Dry Forest

    I went out for four hours today to look at some plants I'm keeping tabs on. Every time I got out of the truck I was apprehensive. After about 100 yards walking, I'd start to monitor myself and how I felt. It was grueling. I was careful to return while I still had things right in my mind. Still...

    Music for the day

    Do any of you remember Murray Mchlauchan, the Canadian singer-songwriter? I have 2 of his albums. I have a fondness for good writers who sing clearly, when they are are easily understood and their songs are about real life and real love. People like Murray. THE FOOL WHO'D WATCH YOU GO

    I don't go to the dog place anymore. If they started grilling on demand, I would.

    Music for the day

    Kate Wolf composition. She died young, at 42 years old. I've been walkin' in my sleep Countin' troubles 'stead of countin' sheep Where the years went I can't say; I just turned around and they've gone away I've been siftin' through the layers Of dusty books and faded papers They tell a story...

    Music for the day

    Who remembers Ralph McTell? This is one of the most poignant songs I've ever heard. Well done Ralph. "That Old Brown Dog" That old brown dog sleeps in the rain Unless the sun has shone That old brown dog is all alone Since Old Bill been gone And sleeping in the rain Only gives a dog a bad...

    Introducing the Landscape of the United States series

    I recall reading several times about Atlanta and the beautiful trees and decent weather. I'll have to run through that area some time (yeah, sure bob, like you have many years left).

    Incoming: new multi-colored map menu

    Okay, you were correct. Edge was filling in the old one. I deleted my bookmark, then went to Boydsmaps.com with no extra coordinates. Now I open with no banner and on Batsto. Thanks for your help again.

    Incoming: new multi-colored map menu

    I reset a couple of times. I still see it. I'm so used to moving where I want to go immediately that the 3 seconds seems like a long time to wait.

    Incoming: new multi-colored map menu

    I had thought of that, glad you did it. My thought was to use a highlighter. PS: maybe remove that banner that first comes up too? Starts with "sorry".....

    This pinecone-sized device could transform the fight against wildfires

    I don't know, if all fires are stopped within the hour, the fuels continue to build, and build, and build.

    Music for the day

    1968, I was just 14 for God's sake. I found this song in my life when I was 15 I think. When I heard it I was a pimple-faced teen with issues. This song straightened it all out. It was an outlet, sort of a 'go freaking wild' right now, to let it all hang out. The bass and drums are awesome and...

    Still Trying To Solve Issues With My Car One Year Later

    Your price and mind were close. I paid $838 before tax. When I was young I did my own brakes and stuff, and even took the engine out of my Challenger myself with a hoist to clean up the engine department - but like a roof, I thought a muffler and pipe replacement would only bring me grief. On my...
