Has anyone googled earth lately. I did last night. spent 2 hrs with out knowing.

I started at my house went threw Coarsegold up into Oakhurst. Got on rd 620, flew over Patagoniamaniac, my mom and Surfus and Pops. house.

It's so clear you can see cars parked in the driveways and trampolines in the back yards. lol

Then I went into Yosemite, Lake Tahoe, Portland and Wa.

You can search for restaurants, hospitals schools ect.

You can do a tilt to get a better view of a house or hotel.

This is going to be so addicting.

When I'm done cleaning house today I'm going to fly to Ohio to see my friends house she just bought. And I always wanted to see Michigan.
Maybe I'll take a trip to Newyork and Chicago..lol

Anyway check it out.

I love Google Earth - it's a great site. I was able to see what is growing in my backyard at my house on Oahu.
