Based on a number of clues (which are kind of hard to see in my capture) we've determined this has to be last year in the fall. It's funny, because before we figured that out I looked at it and some other spots in our neighborhood and thought, "wow! That really looks like how I remember it looking last year in the fall!"
It's weird seeing our house again. A few of you know that I'm considering coming back to the States very soon and I've been feeling more homesick than I was before. I would have thought seeing this would make me want to go back more. It doesn't. Looking at it, I feel totally indifferent. Even when I used the map to "walk" through our neighborhood and look at the park I wasn't all that nostalgic. I really think I'm ready to go home and I think my illness is an incredibly good excuse for me to go since it has been totally out of control since we got back from Thailand, but I fear that I will regret cutting my trip short. Hmmm...
For fun, here are some other houses I've lived in in Colorado...
My sister's house:
My parents' old house:
Denver is one of the test areas for Google Maps' street view. George and I have previously already had fun 'walking' through downtown and looking at familiar buildings. But when it comes to people's homes, what do you think? Is it creepy? Why is it more scary to me to publish a link to the street vew of my house on Google Maps than it is to publish my address? Should I even be publishing the above photos? I figure, they can't be any worse than posting my own photos of my house when it snows or whatever. Can it? What do you think? I'm also starting to get a little nervous about all of the information we're putting about ourselves on Facebook and Geni, etc.. And yes, I'm aware that I'm a heavy contributor to both. But I'm just thinking, if someone ever does want to get all "big brother" on us, are we giving them the means to do so?
