Looks like a very pretty place to live, Hec.

Yep. The sandy area in the park just above the stadium (on the other side of the road) is Children's Playground. Emmett spent just about every Sunday of his life there from ages 2 months through 4 years. You can also see my route to Amoeba Records in that picture.

I think you people who are spotting actual places on that google thing either have much bigger monitor screens or much better eyesight than I. Both of which are entirely believable, so I won't even open the door into everyone-in-the-internets-is-pulling-my-leg-land.

I can find my place easily on those maps, but they tell me that my parent's home does not exist. It's sad, really.

You did notice you can zoom in on the picture, right?

Ah-ha! That must be it. On the closest zoom, I can see buildings, but that's it.

Suddenly, I have Too Much Paying Work. What is that about? Good thing I've been so lazy today -- turns out, it's my only chance all week!!1!

I can pick out my parents' house because they're on a curved street, but trying to find my apartment is pretty hopeless.

Google has some pay program that allows you to zoom much closer. I was pretty sure I could see one of my cars (but the car was partially under a tree, so I could not be certain).

Yeah, I can't see my building in the map very well, either. But those are some hi-res pictures, man. And you know that the govt is keeping you from zooming closer.
