best satellite image website

[gcguy]

Not sure if we have done this before but....

I think this is the best one I have found, does anybody else have a better site? Maybe we should post our workplace locations, or is that being a bit strange?

My loc. has been here for years (but I think I'll refine it a bit)!

Down by the railroad tracks...on the poor side of town?

Without the question mark that is a song, if I'm not mistaken.

I was in a van, down by the river, but my career has taken an up-turn.

Of course it's strange but here you go:
Latitude:39° 30' 19.2"
Longitude: 119° 45' 35.2"

just right of the airport... not sure if this is the good or bad part of town...

But then you know what they say here: "Reno is so close to hell that you actually can see Sparks from here..."

Cool!: This is where I'm at:

Latitude: 40 deg 54' 45.6"
Longitude: 73 deg 6' 51.4"

Let's see if this works...

University of Western Australia, Perth. They call Weatern Australia, or WA Wait-a-While. Many a visitor says they're here for a short stint and end up living here.

All the wind you can want with more sunshine than you need! It's quite a nice place really.

Sorry for the double post folks. Connection's a bit slow and I'm impatient.

You will note the railway tracks. Is this a theme? Look for the railway tracks and you will find the chromatographer.

There is also a canal and docks, both lovely areas, full of interesting characters!!

Now I'm here:

In a couple of months I'll be here:

working on wild dog scent marks.

Peter, I think you may have posted identical addresses, there.

Also, I notice the FlashEarth is acting a bit flakey, and that the photos it uses are from googleearth (http://earth.google.com/download-earth.html)--the Ford Explorer that we gave to our daughter last fall is still shown parked in our driveway

Unless Peter Apps is the GC Guy, we have some confusion in the longitudes and latitudes...

I am not happy that they appear to have trees in Europe, while there are apparently no trees in my neighborhood. I suppose that this narrows the time, when my picture was taken, to the transition between winter and spring. Other things indicate that the picture was taken between one year and 3 month ago, and about 7 months ago. I conclude: early last spring.

I like the neighborhood of zokitano...

GC Guy: are you allowed to park your car at 56° 6' 54.6''N 3° 44' 62'' W or is this spot reserved to the big shots at your place.

[Peter Apps]

Since I'm not GCguy, and I really am going to move, I probably did something wrong - I went to the location on the map and then copied the address line to the forum, which if I recall I had clicked on from a previous post (GCguy's ?). So if the address does not change with location, how do you copy a location to allow other people to go straight there (virtually of course !!) ?
