In trying to add a description, I continually get the error message "save failed, please try again".  It only happens for one particular description but I can't figure out what problem it could have.  It initially worked after I closed the browser and re-opened it, but when I went back to edit I'm having the same problem and closing it doesn't help.  The following is my description:

The South River is a scenic and tranquil tributary of the Black River.  Most of the floodplain is heavily forested, and bald cypress draped in Spanish moss line the banks of the river.  Most of the land along the river is privately owned, though the water is open to the public.<br>Put-in spots include:<br><a href="https://www.google.com/maps/place/34%C2%B045'41.3%22N+78%C2%B024'32.7%22W/@34.761467,-78.409093,17" target="_blank"

Again, this looks just like my 54 other descriptions which all saved successfully.

Hi,

sorry about this, it seems that the application doesn't really likes the url that you are trying to enter. Those urls contain special code like %22 that can't be saved. if you can get more simpler URL, you should be able to save.

One solution could be to use a website like http://bit.ly/ to create short links.
