NearMap Progress

Nearmap.com is my new Google maps and if you haven't seen it - get on it!

Its especially interesting if you happen to be doing alot of DIY outside and want to see what it looks like from a Qantas perspective. The best part of it (and the part that distinguishes it from Google) is the frequency of photos. Recently its been as as often as once a month so for all those weekend warriors who take a little while to complete a project, it gives you a great progress timeline!

As you can see from the pics, our patio went from awe-ful to awe-some and now we're just in awe that its finished! Next month we'll see the garden out the front done, flashings installed on the patio, lawn out the back planted, the Hyundai disappear and the black area next to the carport transformed to a new Moke home!

Possible downsides of the site are:
- The Mrs has proof of how long that last project REALLY took you.
- Your hidden junk pile behind the shed is hidden no more!
- You can see that the grass IS greener at your neighbour's place.
- People can see the milkman's car parked out the front all the time.

Happy Stalking!
