Thanks, Joe, I'll pass that advice on to MY wife. She'll still have time to get some of done before the snow starts flying...

So why was I out there most of the day? I even snapped the shovel handle trying to dig out a huge bush that needed transplanted a mere 10 feet away?
 
Mine looks like it could be before I moved into my house....4 years ago....But my parents is within the last year or so, based on changes they've made to their house and a neighbor adding a HUGE (can't miss it) barn like storage area for their tractors. But, as some have already said, I live in a much more......"back woods" area than my parents LOL
 
Man, I'm glad I live out in the sticks. I don't think they'll ever bother taking a good enough photo to be able to pinpoint yard projects out here. As it is, you can see my roof, snips of my driveway, and the dead RV that was parked here when we moved in two years ago.
 
Well, the street view pic hasn't changed. It was taken in August 2007 I believe. Hubbs doesn't have that car anymore, the front yard is fenced in now, and that tree in the front blew over in the remnants of Hurricane Ike

The satellite image was probably taken in the winter, there are no leaves on the trees. It was taken after the tree in the front fell, but before we cut the tree in the back (march 2009) and pre-coop, although that *might* be my chicken tractor in the back yard it's hard to tell. You still can't see that much, coz of the tree branches. The image isn't all that great either. Actually it kinda looks icey on the roads. MUST have been winter. And I think my truck is over at MIL's house! LOL
Probably all those half-finished projects yall have don't look as bad to people who don't know what they are!

This is my place
I can zoom in a lot closer, but this is as close as I can get and fit it all in.
We started out with 3 acres and it's up to about 48 acres so far:

This is the 3 acres I started with, outlined in red:

Google Earth is a LOT of fun to play with, even on my SLOW dial up LOL

Up until a few months ago the satellite image of our place was about 5 years old and taken in midsummer. Now there is a new image taken in midspring---now I know EXACTLY where those leach lines are! Nothing but sand aside from the eucalyptus grove, except starting at the outside wall of my bathroom a bright green line of weeds out across the back lot, LOL!
