I think I’m relying too much on GPS

Been sick with a stomach flu ever since I got back from Texas, so I haven’t been able to catch up on blogging or do much of anything else for the past few days. Finally catching up now, little by little. I was thinking about how my iPhone handled things during my trip down in…
