The kids cross country through a particularly wet and muddy patch of trail.

A wider shot of the Wellesley view. Near Boston Marathon #3 (GCNC5K), waypoint 1 of the 3 stage multi. We were able to find stages 1 and 2, but not the final. I hate striking out... but we got a great walk with fabulous company, and I got a ton of awesome pictures with my new camera.
Not a bad outing after all.
The path to a geocache Boston Marathon #2 (GCM9HW) goes through a pretty cemetery. Doug, Michael and Geoff walk ahead.
ESRI's newest viewing client, ArcGIS Explorer is reported to be prepared for release in early 2006. Users can pan,zoom, rotate (Globes), and integrate data and servies from ArcGIS clients, WMS services, and even Google Earth KMLs. Rather interesting as Google never really had any intention (as far as I have heard) of making KML a data standard, however, it appears that the likes of ESRI, FME, and others are now making KML an important data standard to be supported.

At the GCQ1RQ "Landru, Guide Us!" geocache, Boxford State Forest, Boxford/N. Andover/Middleton, MA.
So this trail was closed. In the middle of the forest. And Doug and I thought it was painfully ironic because ALL OF THE FOREST IS FREAKIN' ANIMAL HABITAT.
gah.
Didn't anyone put up trail closures where we ran into freakin' beaver dams? no. That's freakin' habitat. Flooded the trails with its habitatness.
gah.
This is the train station for the Hocking Valley Scenic Railway.
A random snap I took last fall, I believe it was.

Geocaching at GCQRA6 The Rain in Maine. Never before have we had such good reception. Nine satellites at full power, except for the one that dipped just as I took the picture.
Kennebunk Plains.
First, go to www.sonyericsson.com/support, select your region, and
click the Support tab. Then, click Software Downloads and type GC82
into the search field. Click EDGE PC Card GC82. This takes you to the
support page.
Download the "Sony Ericsson Wireless Manager" and install it. It should be newer than what came in the box.
NOW you can insert the card :-)

My MApping Buddy Google Map hack for Real Estate
GISuser.com posted a photo:
Try a demo at www.mymappingbuddy.com/demo.shtml - posted by GISuser.comI've always known that in the business world, Real Estate was going to really take hold of GIS and geospatial and run with it.. think about it.. everything about real estate is based on geography and there's likely no better use for GIS than in Real estate apps (both for the front end and the back-end). Blue Fire Group Inc. launched the myMappingBuddy The "mapping buddy" is built on the Google Map open API.
