So wanna have people able to look at your humble aboad?

Yeah, nemo loves that site. It was actually his first look at Colorado before he went out there. He got the coordinates and g-mapped it. I think a few of the other guys on here actually checked out his maps as well.

 

We used it for our vacation to Florida earlier in the year as well. The only problem was that the images were very old. They showed us a very beautiful Pensacola, but when we got there it was quite a different story. Yes, it was still beautiful, but the older images did not contain the piles of rubble still on the road from hurricane cleanup after last fall's storms.

 

Oh well --- c'est la vie, n'est pas?

yea , i used it to actually print several maps of an area south of my house ....41.5867414585 -93.6790930901..those are the co-ordinates, and if u look south , i liek to go hiking down in by the larg river , so i actually used it to plan a course for a around 8 hour hike.....but thats been the only actual real thing its helped me with other than random veiwing of my friends houses (internet friends). :)
