Simple "trick" if it's a US Highway or Interstate.

Even numbers are east/west, regardless of actual compass direction at any specific spot. Odd numbers are north/south. :)
Didn't know that! TY!

The funny thing is, when we go on long trips I was always the navigator with the map in my lap. I was excellent at it. It still throws me to look at the Google map on the phone and a route will say North when the road is clearly going east and west. Without the larger map it's hard to tell that the route eventually does go north and south. On my own it just seems right that whatever is in front of me is north. Go figure. I can't help it if magnetic north in my brain is always in the front...
In Google maps on the right side of the display there is an icon that's either a cross hair looking thingy or a compass. If it's the cross hair looking doodad, touch it and it will change the way the map is oriented. Either oriented to true north or the direction of your travel.

Thanks folks for the well wishes...antibiotics are doing their job but so are those heavy opiods I must take for pain for the time being.
Oh, those opiods! Dang if you do and dang if you don't..sleeping a LOT and they have a few other side effects too, but won't go there :lol:

The discussion about directions had me gasping with giggles.......my man is always telling me he'll take care of the navigation cause he knows better than to even put a map in my hands. He keeps telling me the sun rises in the East, and sets in the West.......and I keep telling him but the sun is overhead...(12 noon) so how do I know which way is which. When I'm driving in unknown territory he tells me....honey, now which way do you think we should go at that red light? I always, and I mean always respond with the wrong answer......hey, North is up, South is down, East is to the right of North, and West to the left of North, but how do I know which direction I'm in??? I look at the directional thingy on my car! And, dat's da way dat is!! :)

He He, sounds just like my wife - she gotten a good handle on North and South, but is still lost when it comes to East and West. And if she is reading the map and she says turn left - make sure you take a right... :rolleyes:

The moss is mostly on the north side of the trees. Unless you're here in western WA, where the moss is slightly less on the south side. :facepalm:

Good to hear you're doing better! :thumb:

@Janet H Today is where in the world is Janet H? You guys are really travelers, don't know how you do it. And at Mikes age poor old guy. Ha Ha just kidding

At the moment I'm home, but in a few weeks I'll head to CO and fly back the next day with daughter and Hux. Pray for my sanity, and the sanity of everyone on the plane. I'm thinking this little guy is going to be well known by the time we land.

I've heard that before, but I usually forget which one is which. Don't be surprised if I call you next time I'm driving by myself.

Cool! I didn't know that!

Yeah, but that directional thingy in the car changes it's mind every time you come to a bend in the road!

Glad to hear you're doing better. Oh, and Gracie, 2 words - prune juice!

Naw, no matter how lost you get - Mike is always going to find you. He knows he has a good thing and he aint gonna lose it...

Actually, he can find me on the phone!

Yep that is one of the side effects. It's really weird at home I have it bad here I never have it. I don't understand I get a little more excercise here but it's strange. Every morning at 6am I'm sittin on the throne Tweeting just like another famous person.

Hubby always remembers that one, but guess who doesn't! ;)

Are you OK?!

After Monday the 28th, the lifetime senior US National Parks pass goes up to $90 ($80 plus $10 processing fee). Through the 28th, it's $20 ($10 plus $10 processing fee). For those 62 and over but it gets others who are with you in for free as well, regardless of age.

I figure if I use it one time I'm ahead of the game. Home - Your Pass Now
