We’re going Downtown!

Another beautiful winter day (72 degrees) in Austin.  It was a nice cruise down to Lady Bird Lake and the Colorado River (the wind was at my back).  I drove by the famous Stevie Ray Vaughan statue and then went by the Texas State Capitol, the biggest in the United States.  On the trip back, [...]

Up Davis Lane, Through Circle C, and a Lap around the Veloway

It was a gorgeous day in Austin, so I thought I would put a few miles on the Gary Fisher. The Weather Channel sais the wind was 8 mph, but that was the strongest 8 I have ever felt! A lot of people were out running and biking. In all it was a 17-mile ride, [...]

Biking the Austin Veloway

A Quick Bike Ride Around the Neighborhood

After a few days of camping at South Llano River State Park, I’m trying to get back into the swing of everyday life.  I got in about a 30-minute bike ride in south Austin before I had to do fun stuff like taking down all of the Christmas decorations. The wind was blowing about 20 [...]

Another Bike Ride on the Buck

After beating myself up yesterday, I set out for an easier ride. Either I got more comfortable on the bone-jarring rocks or this section of trail was much easier. Share and Enjoy:

My First Ride at the Walter Buck Wildlife Management Area

I wanted to do a loop around the property to see what I was dealing with. It was a heck of a ride.  I only came off the bike twice.  After the first “crash” I realized that I had left the zipper open on my saddle bag, which was carrying my BlackJack II and some [...]

A Google Earth Plus Update

Google obviously got an earful about killing Google Earth Plus and sent me updated email just one day after their original email.  After a considerable amount of negative feedback about pulling the import and tracking features from all versions of Google Earth except for the $400 Pro Version, Google will soon provide these features in [...]

Google is Killing Google Earth Plus

I purchased Google Earth Plus so I could utilize my real-time GPS cursor in Google Earth.  Along with a combination of other plugins and data, it was almost like I had a full-blown GIS system running.  Well, I got an email today from Google stating that they were discontinuing Google Earth Plus.  Here are a [...]

An ArcGIS 9.x toolbox with scripts for defining projections

I still have a lot of spatial data that was created using ESRI ArcView 3.x, and I continue to use 3.x because I have a wealth of extensions that do the things I need to do.  One problem with creating shapefiles with 3.x is that projection files (.prj) are not automatically created along with the [...]
