No GPS? Which Way Is North on This Paper Thing?

Great shot! Love the granite!
I'm a map man myself. Love the things. My girlfriend is an out-and-out GPS fanatic. We navigate for each other when the other is driving. I have to use her TomTom which I dislike intensely and find it hard to operate as the buttons don't ever do what I instruct them to do!! Endless rows ensue! :o(

Yo Andy, I actually thought of you when I saw the kind of granite in this shot -- Avalonia granite east of the Norumbega Fault in Maine: so same stuff you know on British Isles (and north of Gibraltar?) .

And yeah GPS instruction while driving ... I'm driving the pick-up pulling a caravan; wife is reciting GPS instructions -- we end up on some windy back-country Carolina roads; may be scenic but adds extra time and some not-easy driving to the trip.

Y'all have a great day, Wally

I love this and it does remind me of my wife and I when out walking too. No SatNav out there. I used to do maps but after some years of TomToming in the car, my navigational skills are waning. My wife is the map-reader but occasionally I have to get the old compass and binoculars out to help. No expensive equipment for us just a backpack with waterproofs, camera equipment and picnic, but that being said we rarely do more than 8 miles at a time in our wild North West England countryside. At least we don't pub-it for walking lunches! As Andy says, a nice bit o-granite here. -Love the hiking boots this bloke has!
Cheers, Herb
