• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

Henry, Just trying to work out how that sailing boat is standing up. Can't see to clearly but looks like the whole thing is standing because the keel is wedged in a slot of some sort.
 
I live in Elsmere, DE (not too far from Gary) and I find it amazing that there are such vast differences just in neighborhoods. My wife and I noticed one neighborhood not too long ago where the houses were untidy and unkept. There was a bump in the road where newer pavement began and it was a totally different world. The houses were the same age, but much better kept. Right next door to the crappy neighborhood in the same development.

i used to live on maple ave just before they tore down the mexican hacienda i mean elsmere park apts. i also lived in parklynn apts (the ones named each after a state) also richardson park, clealand heights, and newport.
i still dream of the day when i can get back there for gerrardo's pizza, and for maryland ave sub shop.

You really have to wonder where Google gets some of their data. Have a look at this map:

http://maps.google.com/maps?ie=UTF8....106537,-79.786298&spn=0.006709,0.009602&z=17

Fountain Manor is a condo community built on what was once a reservoir for Revolution Mill (part of Cone Mills). That reservoir was drained more than 30 years ago! I still remember my dad and a couple of neighbors would fish out of it, even though it was supposedly "prohibited!":monkies:

My grandmother lives in a community called Aaron Lake, and on Google Maps the actual Aaron Lake which is man-made and happened to be drained when the picture was taken is unlabeled (the lake gets drained every couple of years so people can repair their docks). There is another small pond nearby that is incorrectly labeled Aaron lake. :isadizzy:
 
I know one thing, Google doesn't up date it's satellite photos very often. Our house up in NY is still the same photo from before we moved in back in 1993. The one for our house in New Castle is from back before we moved in too.... Has to be before 2006, but probably from back in the late 90s.
 
My boss is in google streets twice. if you look on hwy 41 Fresno ca. He is the one riding the harley with yellow driving glasses looking right at the google camera van wit a "what the ****" look on his face, and if you look in Reedley Ca. he is doiing yard work. He showed them to me about a year ago
