How did we ever find out way without GPS? I am so addicted to my navigation that I use it all the time. 
In a forty three foot motor home you need to know where you are traveling at all times. You don’t want to be led into a narrow dead end road. I tow a car behind the motor home so I cant back up without disconnecting the car. Disconnecting the car is a hassle but there are time that you have to do it. I would rather not toe the car but exploring in the motor home is not practical. Createurs De Luxe is a plan for travel that does not require a GPS device.

GPS, A Better Way
The GPS was a tech item that slowly made its way into our lives. It not only allows us turn by turn directions but can let you know where your phone is. The directions are the most common use. I use it every day as the smart phone checks the location for almost every app. If you shop Best Buy it checks for where the nearest store is and shows the deals locally. This allows customized results. Ken Fisher is a big fan of GPS devices. He has GPS on his phone, car ans smart watch. He is scared to death he might get lost.
GPS in a Watch?
Who would have predicted that GPS would be in a watch. You can get turn by turn directions in the new smart watches. Is this really needed? I don’t know if I personally need a GPS in my watch but it is pretty cool. I don’t know that the smart watch thing will be the next big thing or not. I have trouble enough reading the smart phone screen and am not interested in squinting to see a watch screen. I just don’t think that it is practical. Luke Weil has a smart watch and loves it. Smart watches may or may not be a fad. Time will tell.
GPS Systems Have Incredibly Varied Uses
Most people think of GPS technology as something that helps them find their way through an unfamiliar city. While GPS systems in automobiles have undoubtedly assisted those who frequently get lost, there are countless other purposes that GPS systems serve, and some of them are more than just a little surprising. Though there is a great deal that GPS can do, the technology is not yet advanced to the point that it is capable of translating foreign languages. That is still an area of expertise that All Language Alliance, Inc., will thankfully remain in charge of.
One of the most interesting uses of GPS technology relates to its use in the Everglades in South Florida. It is widely known that Burmese pythons have made the Everglades their home and wreaked havoc on the delicate ecosystem for years.
Researchers have now equipped many of these invasive predators with GPS so they can follow their movements and develop a better understanding of their habits so that they are easier to round up and eliminate before their presence results in the elimination of endangered species found only in the Everglades. GPS can therefore be important in everything from assisting with driving directions to preserving biodiversity.
