how to let us know where your house is


If you are selling a house and want to let people know where it is ,use google maps. zoom in to location, left click on house then right click on house. Then select "whats here" Two numbers will appear in the description. copy and paste those numbers in google maps search and maps will go to your location.
So if you post those numbers we can do a search and see your house in google maps.

Just worked for me. In google MAPS I zoomed in then I LEFT clicked on I think it is Sheri's place, THen I RIGHT clicked on same location. Then went to "WHATS HERE" the info box came up on the upper left side of screen. I highlighted the coordinate shown and copied then pasted into the google MAPS or google earth search box , hit the search button and it showed right up. Try again and let me know.
Heres the cords I just got 27.125413, -114.297795 Copy and paste into Maps search bar and hit enter.

Well I was just trying to be helpful, instead of saying 3 blocks north (I think) and one block west its the house on the left. I thought this would work. This tool can be used for many things like meeting place etc.

how to let us know where your pesos are....
If you are holding some investments and want to let people know where they are ,use google maps. zoom in to location, left click on bank then right click on bank. Then select "whats here" Two numbers will appear in the description. copy and paste those numbers in google maps search and maps will go to your location.
So if you post those numbers we can do a search and see your bank in google maps....then all you need to do is send me your bank account #,,and access code---all funds will be used for the exciting new business on the other thread:biggrin::biggrin::biggrin:

Best way to find Shari's... Drive to the end of the pavement in Bahia Asuncion, keep going until your choice is to drive off a cliff into the ocean, then turn left. Drive along the ocean until you come to a big building with her names all over the front of it. You could also follow the signs! :lol:

Google Earth is fun though, huh?
