I think I've got Colchar beat. Nearly as far North, but much much further West. Sue71 would probably best both of us, but I don't think she spends much time over here. (My blue bubble's on the map.)

I have added my location. The car in the driveway is, sadly, no longer at this address. I still miss my manual transmission. However, the BLUDEVL license looks better on the new blue car.

You live right down the street from my Sunday School teachers' old house. They lived at 3612 Randolph Road. I used to go there all the time to play with their daughter, and I spent the night before my Duke freshman move-in day at their home. Great memories!
I don't have a google account, and don't want one, so I'm not looking it up. That being said, you have to live within walking distance of my dad. He's at the end of Randolph. (Past the Pickett intersection end)

How about that..I do have an account..and forgot. Your house is right down the road from dad's...and didn't exist when I was growing up. No offense, but I liked your house better when it was a forest.

May I place where I posted from this summer? If so, I have Sue and DA beat EASILY.

Otherwise, I have to put a marker in the land of people who can't stand this:

I think you have to have a (free) Google account, but I or someone else can add placemarks for any folks who can't do one themselves.
I don't seem to have an upside-down raindrop anywhere on my map. I logged into my google account, but I can't seem to put down my mark. Maybe there's a limit on how many you can do. :(( Oh well, I live close to 8-x .

Did you click on "Edit" first? You should see it at the top of the left-hand panel.

Ah, that would be my problem. I clicked edit, but all I saw was the dialog box. I missed the that the map itself changed. My bad. Thanks. I'm on there now, though I seem to block out 8-x if you get far enough out to see anybody else. ;) Sorry for overshadowing you there bud.

I wouldn't want to speak for Colchar, but I BELIEVE it's a French v. English Canadian thing. The French part uses the "e", the English part uses the "a". Since the vast majority of the country falls into the English category, most "official" things use the "a". Since Montreal is in the French part, their hockey team uses the "e". And Canadians dis the Canadiens kind of like we Americans like to dis the folks from, say, West Virginia. Am I close Colchar? Eh? ;)

colchar is a loyal Maple Leaf fan, and ANY mention of the Habs ("Les Habitants Canadiens") is quite rightly greeted with utter contempt.

Sort of like saying to BD, "Have a HAPPY NY Yankee Day!"

FWIW, in my book, I loathe the Yankees, the Canadiens, and ManU... with ManU receiving most of my venom. The only team worse than ManU, to me, is Carowhinea. ;)
