I have been playing with Google Earth. There are some very strange
features of the program. Some parts of Albany are quite accurate and
fairly well up to date but others are hopelessly inaccurate and show some
features as they were 40 years ago. Also I can't understand how some large
detail can be missing from the pictures.
As an example there is a large cemetery and crematorium just outside the
city over the road from a suburb called Bayonet Head, easily found on the
pictures.
The patch of ground where the cemetery is situated is easy to see as also
is the parking area as it was about 40 years ago, incomplete and gravel
and even with a couple of cars parked. There is no sign of the cemetery
itself, no gravestones and monuments, no crematorium building. Yje
cemetery was estab;lished about 40 years ago, maybe a few years earlier
than that when the cemetery in town was becoming too big for the space -
it was over 100 years old.
I found my daughters' house which is 6 km outside the city area. The house
and outbuildings are there, even the top of the septic tank, but no
garden.
Please see if you can refrain from silly comments at my expense, Warren. I
am telling you as I see it. There are some very strange features of the
program.
