Link went goofy

Hello Trazzler.

You just published one of my trips, and the link went screwy- #4282 Listening to Nature's (raucous) call.

Here is the link used now- http://www.bahiker.com/northbayhikes/...

Here is what it should be- http://www.bahiker.com/northbayhikes/...

I found another trip of mine that this has happened to, #2085 Drifting by the pastures in Valley Ford.

Here is what the link is- http://www.pointreyesoutdoors.com/Est...

This seems to happen to links fairly regularly here, where the extra characters somehow get added. Any idea what causes this? Is it something I am doing?

Finally, why don't I get notifications when my trips are accepted? I've only gotten one notification out of 15 Trazzler trips. Usually it comes as a surprise. I log onto Trazzler, and there's one of my trips as a local recommendation...

Thanks Trazzler
