Google maps stuff: I actually am more interested by the ability to input lat/long than I am in the ability to enter a street address. I took a few waypoints last year on the solo road trip to Colorado. This is the area near St Mary's Glacier... it doesn't let you zoom in enough to see the exact meadow that I loved so much, though. And this, as far as I know, is the Meteor Crater rest stop on eastbound 40 in Arizona. The waypoint in my GPS was off to the right somewhere -- I think the coordinate systems may be different. I liked it there, even if it was just a rest stop.

yes, and not rest-stop-ish :-) not like the usual "pull in, find a place to change, eat something, drink something, try not to be noticed by all the smarmy looking families". I spent a lot of time there just lying on the red rocks with all the neat plants, and smelling the air. The air smelled like a thunderstorm, except more so :-)
