How do you get to....

Face it. It's just hard to find good old fashioned paper maps around any more. Plus, are they even up to date? Do they show you what roads are closed due to road repairs? Can they tell you where an accident has created a huge traffic jam? Will they let you zoom right in and see what color house you're going to be going to when you pick up that date?

I didn't think so....

Google Maps is a great "go to" solution for map work. If you have a smart phone, it works on there, too!

Want to learn how to use it?
