Wow, thanks Mistoffelees! I'll be buzzing around with this thing for aages.

I've not got photoshop to reduce the size, so I'll have to link. It's one of the houses in the middle. You'll have to guess which one, because I think it's a bit creepy knowing that people have a fucking satellite picture of your house!

PALACE

Ah shit, good ol' photobucket has reduced the filesize aswell because of the 1mb limit.

Where I live.

I can tell the photo was taken last year or earlier because many of the trees don't look like that any more -- Wilma was unkind to the foliage. The dude at the end of the street (it's a dead end, thanks to a blocked-off "easement" road that you can't make out in that photo running from the parking lot to the canal) has kind of turned his huge yard into a smaller yard plus a heavy machinery storage depot -- he runs a contracting business.

The flea market is largely Latin American, if it matters -- several Colombian and Guatemalan joints. And the indication that Donald Trump's country club is next door to the county jail is accurate; apparently, prisoners catcall lady golfers on the eighth hole. It's about 1/4 mile outside the frame, but tickles me.

This one's for Loomis:



Click for a bigger pic. It's not where I live, but it's certainly where I spent a large amount of time...

Has anyone else noticed that there is no North Pole ice cap? Except for Greenland, there is almost no more ice.

The South pole is blurred out too much to make anything of it.

I was poking around on Google maps and remembered this thread, so why not. The twisting line running generally west is a logging road. They didn't get everything, but it certainly wasn't a sustainable forestry effort. Luckily our land hasn't been logged in about ninety years, so there's a patch of really big trees. It's a nice spot, we can look down to just see the house below, but no one has lived in it for fifteen years. The people who own it own the land all around us, we have an inholding in their 200 or so acres. The peak southwest has a big stone outcropping with a little cave under it.

Are you near High Cove, NC? That mountain looks familiar....

Grant, if you're talking about this High Cove, it's about 15 miles east of here, as the crow flies (or any other bird, really). That's towards Bakersville, but close to Penland School of Crafts. If you ever visited there, I hope you went by Penland.
