Joan,
How clever.  Ok, I must learn to work with the Google maps.  Is it difficult?

Joan~You did such a wonderful job on your presentation. I tried to figure out Google Maps last night and had to shut the computer down. You have put this together with such simplicity.

Joan - Walking Tours should be on everyone's list of to do before you buy lists when moving to a new town. What a great way to learn about the location you are thinking of living in.

Cynthia....I did find it frustrating but I think I'm getting it. It does have a bit of a learning curve and I haven't figured out some of the un-doing of stuff....but it's very satisfying!

WoW, Joan!  You've got this google map thing nailed right down.   Fantasitic map and I loved clicking on each little marker and seeing the write-up and pictures of the beautiful buildings.

That's one walking tour I would absolutely love to take....

Joan - that old granite building always gave me chills!  LOL  When I had clients to see and those huge steel doors closed behind me I almost got sick each time.  It's a very eerie place.
