I felt like playing a bit today (which is why I'm bothering to post anything).

I was watching episodes of Northern Exposure and was curious if there was a real Cicely in Alaska. There isn't, but I did find an Arrowhead St in Sitka (Arrowhead Burrough is where Cicely's supposed to be). This is a port on an island, but it also reminded me of Albany, Western Australia, where I lived for a while (always liked Albany) - pronounced "Al-bany", not "All-bany".

Then I looked at my own place, Rainbow Haven (shown in Gray, above). The satellite image here's been updated since I last looked - it doesn't have my car in the driveway any more. Funny the things you can see from one of these. I never knew that number 40 had a swimming.
