Wow! It looks and sounds like you folks had a fantastic holiday. I hope Mr. WeCVO and I can hook up with the five of you on the trip to Calgary next year.  [smiley=huepfenjump3.gif] I have not seen Niagara falls at night for lots and lots of years, so really enjoyed the pics.  Love how Steve, who acts all quite and shy in person, is the dirty ole man in all the restaurants pics.  [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif] Thanks so much for sharing your trip with us all.  Really enjoyed it.  :)

Not really...It is usually right on...these anomolies occur when the GPS thinks you travelled farther than you did in a period of time.  so it only uses a couple of points.  Often it is when you emerge from an overpass or tunnel after losing contact with the birds.

I did hit the 110 on a straightaway in Wyoming...would have gone higher but the white car approaching sure looked like it could be a cop so I backed off.

Naitram,
Just thought I'd let you know you're responsible for creating another HD fanatic.  Only problem is he's only five, and he doesn't understand why he can't have "one of those little bikes" in the panoramic view above!  Every night, he asks me to show him the motorcycle pictures on this site.  This is going to be BAD!!  I can't afford my own OCD habit.  How am I going to finance his?????????   [smiley=confused5.gif]

That's why I have 2 cats instead of kids  ;D  Additional bonus:  I never hear "no" when I ask them if I should spend more $s on the bike...
