VERY funny!

Here is my Dad getting out of his (previous) car.
The white window to the left of the conifer is my bedroom

Now if you want to follow my journey to school, here it is.

classicman · 11-18-2010, 09:51 AM

Hi Sundae Dad! Hi Sundae Room!

(Actually, I have no idea what you mean by a conifer. But there are a bunch of white windows there. You mean the one between the two bushes?

classicman · 11-18-2010, 10:44 AM

A conifer is a type of tree - for example pine trees are all conifers.

glatt · 11-18-2010, 10:54 AM

That's my understanding of conifer as well. But in the picture, I see no trees. Just a couple of leafy bushes. I assumed it was a Brit/American thing.

To the right of her dad - The large pine tree to the right ------>
Her window is the smaller single one on the second floor sort of right above the green car.
(I think) ya know women and directions .... J/k

I don't see any of that at the link.

glatt · 11-18-2010, 11:23 AM

To see street view, you have to click on the little dude she placed on the map.

xoxoxoBruce · 11-18-2010, 11:28 AM

OK, I went back and clicked on the link, and this time it took me right to a picture of the house.

Gravdigr · 11-18-2010, 02:08 PM

The page linked to jumped up and down and all over the place for me. Acted 2 or 3 kinds of crazy. Kool that Pop got captured, though.

Gravdigr · 11-18-2010, 02:10 PM

Google Maps is just apeshit for me today...Tried to find one of the uncles, it's still going apey.

ETA: Google Earth ain't working right either. It infuriates me when the VERY FIRST FUCKING THING I TRY TO DO FAILS IN EVERY FUCKING ATTEMPT.

Goddammit.

Sundae · 11-22-2010, 10:44 AM

Ah - sorry, after all this time I still have no idea how to grab a screen link, or post it. If you zoom out of that shot (as shown kindly by Glatt) you will see a large pine-type tree - just visible in the above picture - to my Dad's right. In a larger picture you can see a window to the right of that tree, which is mine.

So Classic was correct in that I still struggle with the concept of left and right, but incorrect about the window - the house in front of Dad is one of the new houses, built about 20 years ago

We live on a path and this is our nearest parking.

Oh and hello Spexx's daughter!
