I am not sure if we went through Bardstown. I didn't see that come up
although I heard about it on the news that morning.
Regarding Jolene's question about the distance in Explore mode, that could
be a bit less than with active GPS because you are adding up straight blocks
and not the GPS track with some fluctuations.

Mike. That sounds really good. Did you get a chance to visit Bardstown, KY,
by any chance, or did the Megabus just take you down I-65 to Nashville?
Chris.

I have just spent 3 days in Louisville at the Blinded Veterans conference
and am now in Nashville for a little musical exploration. I took the Megabus
between the two cities, which was interesting. It was fun seeing all the
little towns and POIs popping up on my BrailleNote GPS.
At the conference, I was heartened to be visited by 3 avid BrailleNote GPS
users. So many folks have shifted from the more productive Braille notetaker
platform to the iPhone for its convenience.
Of course, in the process of planning this trip, I used Sendero Maps to
figure out the relative locations of the places I was staying, restaurants
and meetings. I went to an Irish pub in Louisville and as Irish luck would
have it, my Uber driver was Irish. Seems funny when I was expecting a
Kentucky accent.
I tend to use the Seeing Eye GPS more for short routes and less when
exploration or co-piloting is required. Each tool has its strengths.
I tell you, I could live in Nashville because of so much high quality music.
