Back on iterating through a mapKit annotation array, I'm bending my brain cell 
on this one.

All my annotations are instances of the MyLocation class

I added a method to expose the properties I want to save by returning a dict to 
the class.

After all annotations are added, and I want to walk the array and build an 
array of annotations, I do this:

- (IBAction)saveData:(id)sender
{       
                for (NSDictionary * myAnnotation in self.mapView.annotations)
                {
                        MyLocation *tempLocation = [[MyLocation alloc] init ];
                        
                //      test that the methods in the MyLocation objects 
actually work on an empty object
                        NSString *myString = [tempLocation name];
                        NSDictionary *myDict = [tempLocation 
returnCoordinatesInDict];
                        NSDictionary *myStuffDict = [tempLocation 
returnPropertiesInDict];
                //      Try it with one of the MyLocation objects in the 
annotation array 
                        NSDictionary *myGoodsDict = [myAnnotation 
returnPropertiesInDict];

Xcode will not let the last line compile with a "Receiver type 'NSDictionary' 
for instance message does not declare a method with selector 
'returnPropertiesInDict' 

But if I comment out that line, set a breakpoint, it clearly shows that 
myAnnotation is a myLocation instance just like tempLocation.

Does anyone know what I am missing here?

Thanks, 
- Alex
