Google Maps

"... your phone, Google Maps."

Yeah, your battery-

So yeah, we're-

When they returned about three hours later, the glow from the fire was gone, Barbara said.

Once I finally knew exactly where Connie's body and car had been found and where the Gees' home was, I was able to measure the distance between the two places with Google Maps.

It's just about a quarter of a mile, so it definitely makes sense that they'd see the glow from a fire further down the holler.

This is when Gary and James were lighting Connie's vehicle on fire with her body in it, according to the State's theory, between 8:00 and 8:30 PM on February 22nd, after they'd left Howie's.

Yeah

... on Google Maps, yeah? Um, those four shops, yeah, are all within walking distance of where that family live.

Correct.

So he wants a job in his local community.

Uh, these have been in existence for quite some time, but we haven't seen a lot of people adding their favorites to the app.

And one of the reasons we really want folks to go ahead and do that is because we know there's a plethora of information, um, coming at you from all angles, and that you can very easily find things to see and do, and restaurants and whatever else you might be interested in in Google Maps or Apple Maps or wherever else you might be searching for that.

But one of the nice things about the Best of the Loop curated by Loopers is that it tends to cover things that are convenient from where you're tying up or where you're anchoring, um, which can be a little bit harder from, you know, a generic tool like Google Maps or whatever you might be using.

So there are, um, categories there for best restaurants, best meals at those restaurants, best historic sites, uh, best lighthouses, best museums.

There's probably 15 or 20 different categories, and you can add your own through the app.

So I can imagine a listener at this point thinking, OK, Nazis, eugenics, selective breeding.

What does this have to do with me using Google Maps?

Right.

So there's a few layers to the connection.

Like some of these septic trucks, he was talking about, they get like four or five miles per gallon.

So what he looked at, right? Even though there was Google Maps out there, even though there was MapQuest back in the day and all that kind of stuff, what he looked at is, hey, can we create a system for routing septic trucks the most efficiently? right? So as people would call in during the day, wanting their septic systems pumped out, basically it would auto route the trucks.

And simply by auto routing the trucks, it saved the company just a tremendous amount of money.

He was talking about it.

And they want to tell me all about it.

And they want to be looking on Google Maps while they're talking to me.

So what's the question?

So I like Danielle's with the timer.

You have to know it's there.

I mean, okay, with Google Maps, anybody can find it.

But, you know, sometimes I just scratch my head.

And John Arena, my buddy John, he sent me a DM.

The Apple Maps.

I don't use the Google Maps anymore because of the whole Lake America thing.

Are you on MapQuest? The Apple

Maps.
