Blueberries make a little bit of a mess.I wash rocks, Lego, coins, and bottle caps on the reg.
Luckily it was a fresh one that got mixed in with a change of clothes in the diaper bag.Parting of the brown sea?
I'm pretty sure they do it based on an estimated time before your turn, not distance. e.g. always around 15 seconds ahead or something. It's easy for it to estimate your travel speed. So if you're going 60 mph it will be a half mile warning, and if going 30 mph its a quarter mile.I just wish GPS would start standardizing when they notify you of a turn. I don't particularly care when, I'd just be happy with consistent. Some times I get a 30 mile notification, sometimes it's 10 miles or 1 mile...but what really bugs me is when I hear 'in 6 tenths of mile' or '4 tenths of mile'...get it together, just say half a mile or wait until a quarter mile. I would have imagined there's some sort of mile marker/distance trigger built into the logic of these things...unless they're self-learning and some how considering, speed, traffic and overall driving tendencies.
