So, while I'm waiting for my 2800 plus email messages to download and organizing almost as many flickr photos, I discovered a wonderful new FREE mapping program called Wayfaring. So, I plotted our vacation where we logged almost as many miles as I have email messages and linked to flickr photo sets. Pretty cool? What others?
