Margie and Mary took off from San Diego this morning, heading out I-8 until they were below Phoenix, then jinking up that direction and up I-17 to Flagstaff, where they are spending the evening.
One of the cool things about the trip is that we got Google Latitude working on Margie’s phone, so I get to see where she is during her trip. Which is very fun, quite reassuring, and, yes, vaguely creepy.
Almost as creepy cool is that Margie’s been Tweeting the journey. It’s almost like she’s gone all High-Technical.
Since she doesn’t do a Twitter feed anywhere, allow me to transcribe.
