Anyone ever play w/ these?

I love it - like hide and go seek :)

Anyway - here is my house!

And here is (most of) Florence...

Monroe Connection - see the cloverleaf interchange on the west side of the map? That is the beginnings of I-20...Direct route to Monroe :D

[LA_MERC_MadMAX]

And here is ACS - although we have the new building next too us now, so I'm sure it'd look a little more impressive than it does here - these pics are from 1994...

Search on any City name - you have to know the layout of your town pretty well to find anything though...

[LA_MERC_Drax]

[LA_MERC_LaTech]

Man, I always mess with terraserver!

Ah...Booger hall...lol


Our house is circled...kinda messed up because of all the freakin trees in Ruston...but it's there, I promise.

[LA_MERC_Sabre]

that shot of Ruston sent chills up my spine...please don't do it again!

[LA_MERC_goose]

COOL! My house is the next to last one on the street, not the case anymore. There's a whole 'nother subdivision back there now.

M@lachi's house doesn't exist! Nothing but trees! :D

[LA_MERC_LaTech]

muhahaha...This is for you Sabre!! You can even see the Ivory Tower!

[LA_MERC_Diesel]

ahhh Neilson, Mitchel and Caruthers dorms(upper-left)....
good memories.
but in Caruthers is where Dirge showed us about this "internet stuff"
back in '94...oh my how we have progressed.
:)

[roXet]

weeee my house! You can't really see it because of the freakin' huge oak trees on my street. Oh yeah, if you click on "advanced search" on the right on that page you can search for your address. That's how I got the thumbtack on the picture.

[roXet]

here's a shot of my office. from the looks of it this picture was taken before we added on, I think this building may even still be a restaruant at this point in time.

[roXet]

here's a shot of Natchitoches with my house and my office still marked.

[LA_MERC_JESTER]

man that rocks soooo kewl...

[LA_MERC_goose]

MAN, I LOVE TOPOGRAPHICAL MAPS. REMINDS ME OF ROTC!

[LA_MERC_Dirge]

heh I love terraserver, I use it to print out maps of the marsh and bayous for fishing from time to time.

Oh, here's a view of my place backed out so you can see the river.

[LA_MERC_Maverick]

weeee...m@l will recognize the picture of my house

[LA_MERC_Dirge]

Here's a zoomed out shot to show you how tightly packed New Orleans is. Gets that way when you are surrounded by River, Lake, and swamp.

On the right hand side, you can see downtown and the Superdome! w00t

Dude - my house is TINY - less than 700 sq ft. - small kitchen, decent living room, 2 med-small bedrooms and a tiny tiny bath...built in 1942 for officers quaters for the florence AAF base.

[LA_MERC_goose]

Don't feel bad Max, it put mine at the other end of my street! AHHH, MY WIFE HAS MOVED ME AND FORGOT TO TELL ME!!! AHHH!

Mine's not but 1800 sq ft and my wife and children have completely filled that up!

[LA_MERC_Sabre]

LOL MAX!!! I was being sarcastic!!! Referring to the blobs that you guys are calling houses....hehehe

my house is 2100 sq ft, 4 bedrooms 2 bath, attached garage..blah blaha blah....but a really small yard (welcome to the burbs!)

[CajunTech]

I'm proud of my Blob - TYVM :D

[LA_MERC_MadMAX]

Speaking of Sq Ft - there was a lady down from Clinton NJ training us on administering our new phone system, and she asked me how much trouble it would be to install a wireless network in her house - so I was like how big is your house, and she was like, oh, right at 5000 sq ft, plus a 1800 sq ft basement...i fainted :D

[CajunTech]

I'm at 1600sq foot with an attached 2-car garage and about a 200sq foot workshed in the back. Been there 3 months and haven't even looked in the workshed yet.. Now to convert the garage into an office (600+ sq foot)...
