The "This is where I live thread"

Saw this on another forum, thought it might be interesting. Find your street on google maps and post the link (you have to click on a button to get it). Don't include your house number obviously... not saying people on here would post crap to your house, but this is the internet after all

Wow... On the coast of the North Sea! Very nice! How's the weather there?

Here is where I live! https://maps.google.com/maps?saddr=36.121538,-86.842269&hl=en&sll=36.121624,-86.842207&sspn=0.001325,0.002064&t=h&mra=mift&mrsp=0&sz=20&z=19
It's close to everything in the city, which means we're 15 minutes from just about everything!

Today I'm actually sweating, but usually fairly cold. Then again you get a nice smog blanket from the works 5 mins up the road!

Well... if you really want to know where I live.

Hehe, I could build a race track... but this picture was made after we made hay.

@ Frank... Very nice... So you have a farm?

[BiggLou55]

@swviper - I forget how close Toronto is to Niagara Falls.... Very nice part of North America! I loved when I visited the falls many moons ago (early 80's and we lived in New Jersey at the time).... We stayed on the Canadian side, and I loved it!

[BiggLou55]

You know.... Looking at the map... We could all meet in Indy for a race sometime! I know it's only a 4-5 hour drive for me. It's gotta be 2-3 hours for Beef, and probably 4-6 for the guys in Toronto too...

Thoughts?

[swviper]

Yeah, Niagara is nice. It's close to T.O....but not, y'know, TOO close. I try to go to Toronto as little as possible...just doesn't suit me. I'm a complete North Eastern US whore....would go every summer if I could afford it. New Hampshire, Vermont....if I ever move south of the border, that's where you will find me (although in both those cases, it would actually be north I suppose)

[BiggLou55]

LOL.... The north eastern US is nice once you get outside of the big metro areas... NYC is great for a visit, but I've been there enough to know I would never live there... Upstate NY is a totally different animal... But Case and HPI live there which means I won't (j/k guys)... Mass is nice, but Boston is CRAZY... Was there in the late 90's while the big dig was still going on and it was nuts!!!

I really want to take a trip to Maine sometime soon... I hear summer in Maine/Vermont/New Hampshire are just fabulous... I know Summer is Niagara was....

That would be very fun!

[BiggLou55]

Looks like more of a 8-hour drove from the west side of Toronto.... but still might be doable... If there is another late July brickyard weekend next year, we might want to discuss it!

[beefsupreme42]

oh yeah, that would be awesome! I have never attended a Grand-AM race, so maybe they will have it there again next year

That's my street! Outer suburb edge of Brooklyn...not too bad of an area, but the neighborhood/ people in it can be extremely annoying sometimes. I was looking around to see if I could see the FR-S parked anywhere but sadly I couldn't find it. maybe next time!

[BiggLou55]

Nice.... This is where I grew up in NJ (below)... Lake Hopatcong... I've been back a few times, and It's nothing like I remember it.... A good portion of my family still live in NJ... All over Northern NJ....

HEre is where I lived until I was 12 (or 1984 for those not feeling like doing the math).... https://maps.google.com/maps?q=40.94627,-74.664904&hl=en&sll=36.121616,-86.842058&sspn=0.014993,0.033023&t=h&z=17&iwloc=A
