Can I be nosy and ask for some of your home towns to look up on Google Earth? :P If you want to check mine, it's Yeovil in England (not that there are any other Yeovils), a spectacularly average medium-sized town, with an equally spectacular lack of landmarks.

To those who have yet to play with GE, I recommend it - it's very fun. http://earth.google.com/

Big place! :D I like the sound of this "snake island".

Edit: Ahh, this bit is really neat as well, my town is rubbish in comparison ::)

Indeedie - I learnt a few months ago that my assumption about where Chicago was located (on the east coast) was so completely wrong it was amusing :D

I loved Massachusetts when I lived there. I would love to move back one day.

I've been in your state. I just can't stand hot, humid weather. It's just me. That sticky feeling just does nothing for me.

OK, Lethe - I live in Piedmont, North Carolina in Winston-Salem (the Triad area) - specifically, at 4761 Grey Fox Ct. - attached pic shows location in the western part of the city off Peacehaven Road - OK, now show me my house in an 'aerial satellite pic' -  ;D

BTW - I do have a nice (but smaller) wine cellar, so don't all show up @ the same time!  ;) :D

These fields look positively Van Gogh...



I am no Van Gogh, but this is one of my paintings:
