Google Earth is a huge time sucker but very, very cool. It makes our planet seem enormous and incredibly small at the same time.

I just spent a major chunk of time “flying” all over, placemarking some spots to show the kids in the morning–where I was born, where they were born, the Duck Pond at OU where their Mom and I used to go on dates. They’ll be thrilled.

On thing’s for sure, it definitely makes me want a faster connection and a beefier box!
