So I was poking around on Google Earth checking out the levees etc of New Orleans, when I decided to also check out its aerial views of my new city.

One thing led to another. The coordinates it gives for my house are 30 deg, 16 min, 45.00 N, 81 deg 27 min 59.28 W. I'll have to check that against my GPS sometime. My hangar is 30 20 02.14N and 81 31 01.35W.

Drop in and say hi!
 
Most of us stalkers are usually more subtle than this, Ken. Do you need the latest Stalker Information Handbook? ;)

LOL...I was talking about your stalkees. ;)

Besides, gated communities are easier to access than most people realize. Two words: social engineering.

That's 3 words ... :D I think the sound of the 12 ga. action slamming shut in the dark might be an even bigger deterrent than the sound of the slide closing on the .45

Good point...close range with a 12 ga. is not a good combination to be on the receiving end. However, when I think of S&W I'm thinking .44 mag. Not sure if they produce a 45.

edit: not sure what I was thinking they have TONS of different models including the 1911 ACP.

Wag the wings when you go over so we'll know who you are.

Picky, picky, picky.:p You're right about the sound of 12 ga. shell slamming into the chamber. No misstaking it with anything else. :hairraise:

In a RV by the river would do very nicely right about now...which is just about the current plan as soon as I can find some affordable land.

As for security: Colt says no trespassing and the vandalism will stop.
 
When I put my address into Google Earth it tells me that I live 6 houses west of my actual location. At least it has me on the right street.

It is, especially on a pump. The Browning Auto-Five didn't make the same statement as a nice Remington pump.

Ha, ha. Matt Foley, aka Tommy Boy, aka Chris Farley. One of the funniest skits on SNL I've ever seen.

And I prefer a C-96 Mauser Broomhandle, with optional shoulder stock. Call me old fashioned.
 
No matter what you've got.. it doesn't do you any good if you don't know how to use it!

Call first... but come say Hi if you are in the neighborhood! I'll throw something on the smoker. The fridge is stocked with beer, the wine is always flowing, and there is plenty of bourbon for those of us who seek a higher calling in life :goofy:

Cheers,

I recognize that one anywhere. Awesome quality of the area!!

Look closely at that airplane on the taxiway (probably JANET, I'd assume). What the heck is wrong with its left wing?

Zoom out to see what the neighbor did with his empty crushed pecan hulls

Nick,

Where is it? And how can you see an airplane close enough to see something wrong with it? I can't even see an airplane, and it won't let me zoom in past the 2000 foot scale.

Yup. Both when I'm home and here (Tokyo). Eastern Washington / northern Idaho is such a wonderful place.
 
As close as I can tell, my house is at
N 44:52'48.5" W 93:38'43.0"
I can't actually see the house, apparently the image processing algorithms decided my roof looked like trees. I can see my dock, boat lifts and raft though.

and my hangar is at
N 44:49'48.5" W 93:27'40.5".

FWIW this is where I grew up (or more accurately where I lived until I was 18).

N 42:29'48.9" W 82:53'07.8"
