Google map access problem note

Newfound Gap Road and Clingman's Dome Road were closed today due to ice/snow/wind damage. It turns out that Matt was able to make a shuttle reservation for tomorrow to Newfound Gap from Gatlinburg.

People have mentioned that they can't follow the link to the Google map in the sidebar. I found that the link doesn't work with Internet Explorer, but does work with Mozilla Firefox. I'm not sure if this is an Internet Explorer issue with long URLs or a Blogger/Blogspot issue. Maybe someone with more technical knowhow could comment on this? Sorry that I don't know offhand how to address this issue, other than to verify that the maps do work in Mozilla Firefox.

Don't you just love a snowy scene--makes you homesick for New England! I hope it warms up soon and not just where you are. It has been miserable here, too. What a spring this has been!

Those ribs sound good. Try to stock up like the bears do so you can hibernate if the weather turns rougher (as if that is possible).

Love,

Mom

Yes, Lisa, it's a browser issue.
I'm on a Mac and the map works fine in Firefox but not in Safari.

Hopefully, Matt, the weather will improve from here on out.

Hi Matt!
I hope the weather improves as you get north. I am glad you have been able to find places to stay warm along the way.
Hope Castaway catches up again. Best wishes,
Zan
