When I was in grade school we had a blow up of an aerial photograph of the neighbourhood around the school. The teacher put it up on the bulletin board and we were supposed to try and find our house (we went to school from our Grandma's house) and mark it with a pin. The photo was taken some 10 or so years earlier, so a lot of the kids had to approximate where their house was in the open fields and vacant lots.minimetoo26 wrote:So he can see if you were on your driveway when Google Maps came by?Here's Fanny! wrote:Well, then what's the use of giving you my address?tanstaafl2 wrote:You do know someone who goes to Hawaii relatively frequently though.

I could always send you kona coffee and macadamia nuts.
All I need is an address. Don't worry, if I had the address there is almost no chance I will show up personally to deliver them late one night when it is totally inappropriate...
My son came to tell me there was a picture of me online that I didn't know about, and of course my first thought was "oh, shit!", but he was just Zillowing the neighborhood and saw me checking the mail sometime last summer.
So I told him not to pick his nose at the bus stop, just in case...
I went up, took a quick look and marked my spot right away. The teacher asked me if I was sure that was right because I didn't take very long. I said "yep, that's my grandma's car in the driveway!".
A '63 Polara, if anyone's keeping score.
