Well, that one certainly takes the cake. The closest I've come to that
is identifying my friend's car parked in his driveway in Florida. :-)
In fact, I think this is the only one of my 5 previously owned houses
that has ever been Google street viewed... but I left this house 15
years ago... long before Google appeared on the scene. But it still
looks the same now as it did then except for a missing tree.
