So new I don't even have a page for it. Oh wait! That's this page!

Got it yesterday August 10 2012

Day one

Took a picture of Julie to try out the camera. Since my house now has a metal roof, the GPS can't see satellites so the photo is not geocoded. If you love GPS, don't get a metal roof!

I installed the Garmin City Navigator NT 2013.1 map and portions of the Garmin Topo 24K West map.

I installed the free Northwest Trails map.

I loaded a GPX file containing Corvallis area geocaches. I took it outside so it could get lock and had it list nearby geocaches.

Went to bed.

Day two

I rode to work with it so it now has about 1 mile on its trip odometer.
