Okay, David!  I think this means we're going to have some "How To Do Maps
with the Garmin 12" sessions real soon!  I have a video that I bought after
I got my new GPS...I've started watching it and I've learned quite a bit
but there's nothing like hands on *trying to make a map for the team* to
really understand what I'm doing.  I have the PNW Topo program just
*waiting* to be put to use!

BTW, I found the video at a marine equipment store...for those of you (like
me) who are right-brained enough to have solely written directions cause
severe glazing of the eyeballs. ;-)  I need pictures and hands on for
technical stuff.
