Google Maps new feature

Yesterday Adam told me about a new feature that they have on Google maps. The new feature is called street view. The feature allows you to have a real view of an area of interest. For example, I typed in my work address and clicked on street view. When the picture comes up you can do a full 360 turn. When I turned the image to face directly at my office, there was a picture of me standing outside the office, talking to my co-workers boyfriend. It look like it was last summer they took the pictures. My theory is that they had a van driving around that was taking 360 pictures once every few seconds. Check out this link, type in 7304 SE Milwaukie ave, Portland, OR 97202. then once you pull up the street view, pan to the right, that is me in the pink skirt. Very futuristic!!

Working girl.

I love the neighborhood where I work. I like to call it Urban Hip Hippie! There are lots of boutiques, bakeries, restaurants, and of course two Starbucks! My favorite shop is Stars Antique Mall. It is almost a whole block of antiques, definitely enough good bargains to get a girl in trouble. Just 3 blocks away is a big beautiful park, complete with a man made duck pond and wondering stream. When I need a break it is a nice get away!

We have a small office. Right now it is just me, Lisa and the main agent Chad. Lisa is so much fun to work with. She is Ten years older then me with an 18 year old son, can you believe it. She looks like she could be 22. Some people get all the breaks. Chad was gone all day today, so we took the liberty of taking lots of pictures and relaxing a little. "It's party time," is what Lisa likes to say when ever Chad is gone. Although we have never partied it is still a nice thought!

Cute Shawny Pants

My Younger sister Sarah's son Shawn is getting so big! I have not seen him in a year and a half. I think it might be time to make a trip out to Florida and visit the little rascal. Happy half birthday Shawn!

Living close.


I know I have already posted a lot about Sam and Jessica. I am so excited that they are going to be living close to us! We always have fun together and they both awsome people! Ideally I would love to have all of mine and Adams family living close together! Growing up there was a family of three brothers that all lived on the same street. I just remember thinking that would be so cool! I know that will probly never happen, but I can always dream. Needles to say I am really excited to have Sam and Jessica living so close! And I am already thinking of camping trips and adventures for us to go on together!
