Google Street View has hit San Antonio

Well, I read an article a few days back about Google getting in a tad bit of trouble for taking photos on base at Ft. Sam Houston, so I knew they’d been in the area… finally got around to checking, and sure enough they now have photos of the front of our house, along with the rest of our neighborhood… I just wish they would have waited until after I cleaned up some stuff in our front yard and had put our trash and recycling bins away at the side of the house… still, it was a nice, sunny day and things could have looked a lot worse around the neighborhood than they did in the photos… (The photo below is from Google Street View, though I’ve cropped it down a bit to get rid of the address, street name, etc…)

Just noticed that it appears that we still had the flag up when the photo was taken. The pole for that flag broke in half during a wind storm a few weeks ago, so this picture is probably older than I originally thought… still within the past couple of months though…

Hmmmm…. never knew there was a support group for ex-Jehovah’s Witnesses… but apparently there is and they even have a happy website…

Another day at home for Spring Break, or what’s left of it… working from home, so not sure if it’s really a break or not… but here’s one of the entrances to our subdivision…

Horses! There be horses! I’m still amused by the horse riding place just a few blocks from our house sandwiched in between all the houses…

Other than the squirrels, there really isn’t much activity on campus this week…

Must be Spring Break now… I’m practically the only one on campus it seems… actually, I know there are others around because I had a meeting this afternoon…

Milly’s not happy about all the leaves in the yard. I’m still waiting for her to start picking them up…

Chairs, chairs, and more broken chairs…

We have to wait until property management comes to pick these up to get rid of them… and with the construction around our building, there is no telling when that will happen…

Must be getting close to Spring Break because the mock DUI car crash is back on campus…
