          As for weather updates, Poynt has a great program for your smart phone that included live weather maps, as well a a bunch of other things, ie gas prices (by distance, grade & location), Restaurants , businesses, phone books too. That is how I found the Advance Auto last year when I needed a gas cap in the middle of Kentucky, turns out it was half a mile up the road from the gas station

          and if you get the Google Map App you can get live traffic reports, well if they have the system installed where you are..

                      Beautiful cool weather for the start of your next leg. Hey the tour did hit the news here on channel two, they were talking about what a success it was. There was an estimate of about 4000 cars at Gateway.

                      It's not the destination, but the journey and the friends you make along the way that counts.
