Comment on Garmin Connect Switches to Bing Maps by The GPS Geek

I am 69yrs old and I remember my grand mother telling stories about her and her family going to visit kin folks there by way of wagon. It was a busy saw mill then. I still love the stories of this place. Go to Boykin Springs every chance I get.
