For those of us that play with Google Earth, let's post cool things we find here.

I suggest that we post the Lat/Lon of what we find and a description if you want.

Post it in the 47 37 37.2N, 117 38 38.2W format. That way all you have to do is copy and paste it into the "Fly To" box on Earth Google.

The coordinates I posted in the example are for Fairchild AFB near Spokane.

Enjoy!

OMG, I live on a dead-end street in Aloha and in both Google Earth and Google Maps there is a street view of my house. Incredible.

Scary. I live out in the boondocks on a dirt road and you can see my driveway gate and the "beware of dog" sign. I'm surprised they'd send the googlearthmobile all the way out here!
