Plans

When I checked my iPhone app this morning, the data seemed to come up slow but valid. When I checked peeron and one or two of the other calculators, there was no valid data for the day. I've been playing with these numbers manually recently, so what the heck! I grabbed the opening value from Yahoo! and played with my worksheet program to get the values. Since it's close to Christmas, I decided to check the list twice.

I spent some time during lunch on Google Maps to find a route from work to home that would pass through the coordinates without having to stop or cross my own GPS trail.

If this works out, I'll finally earn the Tron achievement for sure! ...and then I read that I have to return to the same spot! *sigh*
