Default Anyone watch Perry real-time SPOT tracks?

Hi Matt,
You raised a good point. So I just fixed it so that the order for
each task is now listed in the proper order. It seems to be correct
in both Google Earth and the Google Maps display. Perry is online for
that (with the last day's task) and Cordele will have that a well. I
setting that up now.

So I see both you and Ray in the entrants list. I'm putting together
the tracking site now so if you send me the URL for the shared page
for that SPOT I'll go ahead and get you entered into the system.

Later!

Yes, I generally brought it up each day. *I was amazed that you were
flying at all some days
with the wind howling away. *However, it's hard to get an idea what's
going on -- the task list
on each day seemed to be sorted by the turnpoint ID, rather than the
actual task order. *You
could puzzle out the task from looking at the map, though.

My buddy that has a SPOT locator had to drop out of club class, so
he's going to loan it
to the rest of the Harnett contingent, so you guys will be able to
track at least one of us
on the other task of the day.
