TIGER data and the related products (files, statistics, maps) are from the U.S. Census Bureau and include things like roads, railroads, streams, ponds, administrative areas (state, county & municipal boundaries) and statistical information.

I use a number of them.

Here's another little story from yesterday's outing:

It was warm and there was actually just a bit of sun peeking through the clouds, so I put the top down when I went searching for the Avocets.

I stayed until it started raining again, then headed to car, since the top was still down...

By the time I got back to the car, it was really raining. Put the top up, rolled up the windows and took off.

 

[sm4him]

Got about four miles down the road and look over to see a giant HORNET on the edge of the window framing.
Right jammin' next to me!

 

[sm4him]

Normally, I'd roll the window all the way down to try to get something like that out, but it was POURING rain by this time.

 

[sm4him]

So, I tried to just roll it down enough to suck the hornet out but not enough to get soaking wet.

Rookie Blue is a night time soap opera, I mean drama show. It is based on a bunch of police officers that recently graduated from the academy.

But it didn't work. So I pulled off the side of the road, but by that time, the hornet had crawled up INTO the top somewhere and I couldn't find it.

So I drove the rest of the way home trying to watch the road AND the inside of the car constantly.

 

[sm4him]

After I got home, I wanted to put the top down and see if it would fly out, but it was still raining.

This morning, on the way to church, there was the hornet again. Only this time it was at least on the back window instead of right beside me.

But it was still raining.

 

[sm4him]

Now I have to leave again pretty soon. I hope the hornet behaves itself.

I hate driving with a hornet in the car.

Ah, gotcha. I thought it was a game.
