So I got this new job...

It was supposed to be pretty local.. part time.
I'm taking care of about 7 Lowe's stores for a merchandising company.
But then I had to go to Philadelphia to meet a Lowe's VP and tour some stores with him. Now next week I'm going to the other end of this state to train a new hire (so much for local part time).
Problem is I don't know this state! I have no idea where anything is and I hate being lost. To and from ain't bad but I'm going here and there and there.. sleeping and going there.
I've found the Rand McNally site pretty good.
But is there anyone else that travels that has any useful tools or tips for me?

Ha well at least you'll get to tour the state! Philadelphia is a neat city to hang around in.

I was there last week, this week I'm going to Johnstown, Indiana, and Dubois.
Actually 6'4, I used Yahoo but I like that save feature and interface better at rand mcnally. Oh and you're safe this time. I have a place to crash (Best Western) so no chance of my slipping and beating you up!

Buy a GPS.

Actually Fingers has one, it just doesn't strike me as being much good unless you're a bird flying...

How l33+! We'll call ya 7-L0!

Congratulations, Surreal! What will you be doing? Creating merchandising strategy? That would be a GREAT job for you! (I think you said, awhile back, that you were doing work along these lines at HoDep)

Why aren't they flying you? That's gotta be like an 8 hour drive.. time to fly!

If you stay in Philly long enough, I can recommend some places to get a nice cheese steak and soft pretzel.

Mike! That was last week!
Indiana PA!

I'm going to be north east of Pittsburgh this time.

What about a PDA that does maps? do those work?
