But you can check out other places. Type in your son's addresses (the ones who live in the US). You will be taken right to their houses. You can see standing water in Paul's parking lot. Or, you can check out lakes you have been fishing at, or ones you would like to fish on. For you, yes it is a mere toy. But, it can be a very fun toy to play with. I had some radio programs to catch up on a week or so back. I was able to listen to my programs and play with Google Earth for about 2 hours. Very cool. Check out the Great Pyramids in Egypt. All you have to do in the search bar is type Pyramids and it will take you there. It is unfortunate that the town you grew up in is in a low res area of the satellite images.

And it is a cool site to play with, but I can't see any real use for it, at least for me. I just downloaded Google Earth.
