It's a really good idea. I will have to think about doing something like
this since fishing is a big time sport out here.

Something like that. Was thinking of sort of a message base type system
where users could link information to a specific lake/stream or even a
segment of those waterways. That way when you "click" on a specific portion
of the map you would be able to retrieve information about that segment from
other users. Makes it more interactive that way. Anyhow I have been picking
away at it and as soon as I figure out a sensible format for display to a
remote I will take it online.

Sorry to here about mom. I also have been helping out with my mom who has
Parkinson's and it does cut into programming time ... but it is mom after
