Still Trying To Finish...
...the damn map. It's a laborious process...I have to go back through my GPS routes for each day of the trip, then cut and paste the coordinates and some code for each little flag point.
I also have to check to make sure that the code works properly for each change I make to the .HTML file, because each time I try to complete the map, at some point during the process I seem to break the Google Maps API. This time, for example, it's refusing to add the last flag I've entered into the code. I've also noticed that the map is wildly inaccurate the further you zoom in...Astoria, for example, is a coastal town, and the map plotted that point a few dozen miles inland. I know my coordinates are correct, because I pedaled from place to place using them. So I can only conclude that Google doesn't plot GPS coordinates onto the its maps very accurately.
Which is a drag. But when it's done, it will be the slightly out-of-focus Portrait of my journey.
