I don't know if it's just me but this is kind of blowing my mind right now. I just now learned how to "satellite view" with Google maps, as the great Mik6 and I were comparing parking ideas for Trikefest. My very first Google satellite view I pull up is of Haspin Acres. As I'm looking at the park, I realized it's Trikefest. For whatever reason Google just showed me Trikefest. I'm astonished. So for those of you who care to see Trikefest from a satellite view, Trikefest-

Very cool pic's. Googles satellite views are not produced in real time. Don't know their schedule to update but save your screen prints now as they will change. Found my camping rig at Glamis along Gecko Road back a couple years ago, you can only zoom in a short distance.

Got me at a customers house on street view in OB.

Got my cousin on street view as well in Barcelona Spain.

It's a small world

Yep, that's last year. I see yours, Wheezy's, Howdy's and my vehicles in the photo. Swinehart seems to have known that they would be watching and hide under a tree. Smart guy :shiftyeyes:

I've been using the map for awhile. For service calls, it's very nice with all the new streets here. Some areas do not have coverage, so I draw it out before. It would be nice to just take a screen shot. How did you do it? Thx

I just screen shotted, lol. With an iPhone you hold the top right power button and then tap the home button. Presto!

I thought Damon didn't like me anymore. He must have just changed his phone number again.

On the other hand, some days I feel this phone belongs in the river.
Recently, I was using the map in the kitchen, it always defaults to my location. I then, moved to the bedroom and it showed me moving in the house!
Then I get another unwanted e-mail about being able to track any phone. What! Why would an average joe need that. I'm not a policeman, investigator or FBI agent, like one fine feller suggested last year.

The astonishing part was that the images just happened to be taken during Trikefest.

Had you been researching Trikefest or Haspin Acres? Google Earth may have been using your browsing history.

No I know the place fairly well so I don't really have any reason to go to their website. I wonder if there is some way they knew I'd want to see Trikefest specifically and that's why they showed Trikefest. By that line of thought though, it should show Trikefest if I search it right now as well. It should show Trikefest for a lot of us.

My house via Google images has change several times. Mind you this is street view. Not sure of the refresh on images.

I have a Google car a couple streets over from me.
