Thanks for taking the time to view my image. Your comments, faves & constructive criticism are greatly appreciated.
I could sit and look at satellite pictures of the Earth and Google Map all day. I really could. I love seeing the shapes and formations of river estuaries, mountains, volcanic flows, glaciers, cities, roads and islands.
The above picture is of Hilbre Island, taken vertically from above the earth. Beautiful, amazing, intricate. This is a small piece of Hilbre Island right by my feet. Doesn't it look like a satellite shot?
There's a crater to the upper right, and a sulphurous flow down to the left towards a distant lake glistening in the sunshine.
In a GoogleMaps search for Top London Bagel- a place showed up, that piqued my interest called "BEIGEL" Open 24 Hours.
On a street called Brick Lane, en route to our ( small Group) tour of Londons amazingly restored Battersea Power Station we took a chance on this place Londoners,
will wait in a line, to be abused by rude and not-nice staff,
that could clearly benefit from a Seminar Session(s) or 3
on building Customer Relations Skills and
The Art of The Schmooze, to increase Ca$H Register Rings.
If I wanted abuse- I'd a gotten married long ago (with Kids too!)
Anyway- the bagel didn't have the proper firm outer shell with a supple soft interior.
Nor, were there different flavor offerings like -
Pumpernickel, Sesame Seed, Garlic, Onion, or
the infamous
"everything-Bagel" and- BTW it's spelled B A G E L my brother, not Beigel.
(The Yiddish word for Bagel is actually Beigel)

Looks like a flow chart, it reveals stuff Google has associated with your website.
Good for me! Google correctly knows me as a social media consultant!
Unfortunately, I can't even make out my own house. But it is in approximately the center of this photo. I've lived there in Mill Valley on Reed Street for almost 15 years so even if this was photographed 6 years ago, my house is still in there. My point is that I live in an area that is covered with trees and vegitation. This was a shock to my system when I moved from North Beach in SF shortly after the earthquake.

The choices provided by Google used to be either 3 Googlemaps listings OR 10 Googlemaps listings.
The difference between what Google displays depends on if there is any competitors or not

photo taken on google maps in New Orleans. The idea behind it is that in quarantine we can't go anywhere so we go to these places using google maps.
What mere mortals see from the ground when people GoogleMap a spot nearby. (View the larger size - it looks better) Reference Link
All true stories. I can't believe so many memories exist in one screen full of the map. I wish Google Maps had this kind of annotation.
Here's the live Google Maps URL I used to grab this image of Placentia, California.
This photo is of the building originally occupied by Hoffman’s Resaurant & Bar. See the next image, a postcard from the 1930s.
My thanks go out to a flickr member, Chris Nickey, for leading me to this contemporary photograph.

Dunham Massey Hall
The present hall was built in 1616 by Sir George Booth, who received one of the first baronetcies to be created by James I in 1611; it was remodelled by John Norris for his descendant, George, 2nd Earl of Warrington between 1732 and 1740; it was further altered by John Hope towards the end of the 18th century and again by Joseph Compton Hall between 1905 and 1908. The hall, stables, and the carriage house of Dunham Massey are all Grade I listed buildings, three of six such buildings in Trafford. The deer park is the only surviving medieval park in Trafford or the surrounding area.

5321 GoogleMaps Bridge of Besalú Pont de Besalú 2008 S 1381 Besalu2_06
---------------------
El puente de Besalú es un puente románico que está situado en Besalú (Gerona, España) y cruza el río Fluviá. Está catalogado como Bien de Interés Cultural a nivel nacional y a nivel autonómico como Bien Cultural de Interés Nacional, por parte de la Generalidad de Cataluña.
Descripción
Se trata de un puente de forma angular con ocho arcos desiguales (el primero queda incluido dentro del sector correspondiente al recinto amurallado), que están situados encima de pilares, muchos de ellos basados en la roca viva, con tajamares. Al final del primer tramo, entre el cuarto y el quinto arco, hay un ensanchamiento de la calzada y más adelante, entre el sexto y el séptimo, hay otro. El portal de acceso, fortificado, está sobrepuesto al primer pilar del puente.
Encima del quinto pilar se levanta la torre fortificada, de planta hexagonal con dos arcos de medio punto superpuestos, por el lado de levante, y con un arco apuntado y aspilleras en la cima, por el lado de poniente. En uno de los sillares del pilar central del segundo tramo, hay una piedra heráldica con la fecha 1680, lo que hace pensar en una restauración de gran envergadura o en una reconstrucción casi total del puente

The title of each photo in this series is a translated line from a poem found in the Chapel of Bones. See the full poem in the original language here en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capela_dos_Ossos#Poem .
From our tour guide - the Franciscan monks who used the bones of approximately 5000 corpses, built this to send a message to the nobles that in death, no one can tell the difference between the rich and the poor, royal or common.
Inglewood, California - I lived here through 5th grade. You'll find 25 little stories on this map, including the one-time home of Bruce Lee and events from the childhood of a little monster. When I lived here there were no zip codes: It was Inglewood 4, California. Area Code 213. Our phone number was PL4-xxxx (the PL stood for PLeasant).
