I can pinpoint within a couple of days when the car did south Lethbridge based on construction.

They got Sydney, drove around my neighbourhood, but not my parent's street, or my grandmother's.

Glad they went through in the summer and not winter, as it's much nicer in the summer than cold and covered in snow.

Now I'm curious if they got the causeway to get onto the island.

Anyone know how to report this to Google?
I don't get why people blur out licence plates... It's not exactly private.

I also don't understand why people think it's creepy to take a picture of the front of their house. Creepy would be more like someone looking in your window from outside while you're changing. Or maybe taking pictures of you while you're shoveling snow. That's creepy.

You can see in the front window of my house.

In this age of identity theft, giving the bad guys the ability to gather ammunition from the comfort of their home just doesn't make sense to me. I am well aware of the fact that, if someone tries hard enough, they can probably gather any personal information about me that they want. I just don't see why we have to hand it out on a silver platter.

I still think Street View is awesome though.

It's a licence plate, not a Swiss bank account number...

They did Bawlf but they didn't do Innisfail? The Fail? Such potential.

Really, they did as much of Innisfail as they did of Bawlf...They just ripped by on the highway.

Ah you're right. When in the hell did Innisfail get a Boston Pizza? That would have made all the difference in the world right there.

Yeah, it's only an hour away from Edmonton, so when the wind blows from the northeast, we've all got to get out of the area since the Greaserville stench carries that far.

In all honesty though, I couldn't care less if everyone blows right by. I'm glad that I've got a little town that I escape to and really call home. I hope it stays that small forever!
