Thrilling Thursday

Thursday's APRS/GPS Tracking Actually Worked!
This is a day late and a dollar short, as the saying goes, but whatever.
Jacque and I are sputtering back to regular activity on the trike, and Thursday our ride was much more pleasant - at least for me, having knocked some of the rust off my lazy leg ligaments.
We rode again up to the Post Office and then on up to the Triangle Shell Station for a snack break.  The weather, again, was beautiful, although it was very close to sundown on the return leg, and since THAT direction is largely downhill, got a bit chilly screaming down along the pavement.
Tinkerbell, our Terrific Traveler, has begun a small nasty habit of groaning and whining as we chug along, especially if we are crawling slowly in Gramma Gear.  She doesn't seem to mind when we're going faster, even at speeds that make Jacque's eyes pop wide open in terror, but she really gets irritated when we are going at more normal speeds, especially when in lower gears huffing uphill.  Which irritates US, so we're trying to get her to knock it off.  Even with that small irritant she's still too much fun to leave in the car or at home with boring Old Dog Radar, the Gruesome Graying Greyhound.
For some reason my tracking system had not worked the last couple of short trips we've ridden, but Thursday it seemed to work fine.  It had been mounted behind Jacque's stoker seat in a seat-back pouch that was crammed in under the front of Tinkerbell's riding cage, which is metal in construction, and this may have been preventing the GPS from working correctly.  I had moved it up to MY seat-back pocket sleeve which is more in the clear so perhaps that's the reason it worked well.  We'll keep a watch on it for the immediate future.
