Help gps location

Yesterday, I traveled 3 hours away from home in a different state. My location however, still showed my home location. I checked all the settings and everything is correct. Anyone else had this problem?
 
I've seen this on a few phones not just the bolt. Did you select to have google locate you for search result? I think it has something to do with GPS cache, to save battery they will remember where you are and unless you pull up something that needs to use the GPS it will not update. I think the issue can be resolved if you reboot the phone or use an app like "GPS Status and Toolbox"
