Hi Amy! I've seen my house before but haven't checked lately to see if things are disturbingly closer

Our house was on google maps before...from a satellite photo that you could do a "fly over" from. Not a whole lotta detail on the street level.


Now there is an actual street photo of our house. From one of the vans with a camera on it. Fortunately it was taken in the summertime, so the big ol' trees are doing their job of shading the front of the house.


Note to self...might want to consider curtains in the front room this winter.....
