Got Google Earth? If so, open it first. Then click this link. http://maps.google.com/maps?q=42.236...572&output=kml Summer satellite image, so all the grass and fields are brown. That link should drop you right on top of the madrone I attached the image of. The big green roof to the left or west, is the library, which is very nice to have next door. It's paved driveway is our access. If anyone uses Google Earth, and sets it to display the decimal coordinates of the pointer as you move the cursor, you can find your coordinate points and substitute them in this code snippet: http://maps.google.com/maps?q=42.236...572&output=kml No space after comma. May not display in forum right, but may need to right click, copy and paste to see it. Very short bit of code that does a lot. On the hiking pages within my advice pages, I added not only the GPS coordinates of many local and Oregon hiking trails, but I put a Google Earth Icon on the page somewhere with that code link snippet embedded in code, to auto-load Google Earth for that coordinate. Did likewise with Google Maps, but the code snippet is slightly different. | |

| Re: Balsam Fir And Cedar Colour.... Hello everyone.... Yes...It is me. The poster who never returned to check for the answers...as one of you mentioned, the e-mail notification was on, but I swear that I was NEVER notified of any of these post. I will check to ensure that the proper e-mail is registered. I am not gonna sit here and type excuses as to why I never returned... However, if the notification was working, I assure you that I would have checked. FOR SURE. Thanks to Dimension and Shea for their initial help, and to the others as well.... To answer a couple of the questions posed (if you are still wondering)...Not many forest-like animals in Oshawa... We may get the odd racoon or skunk. But no deer. As for the soil type...primarily clay where I am. i have noticed as of late...since the weather has been warming up...the colour on the fir and cedars seems to be darkening. I WILL keep you posted as to how they make out. My wife and I (along with our new born daughter) have moved into a subdivion with an unusually large backyard and I am trying to plant as many trees as I can, so that in 10 years, I have created a mini-forest and a privacy screen from surrounding homes. I will take a pic or two and post....as I plan on adding 4 or 5 new trees this spring. Unfortunately we will not have a backyard view like some of the ones I have seen posted on this thread. Again...I am sorry for my tardy reply.... Kev |
