I don't have a street view photo near my house, (and there will probably never be one either).

Is there a way to tell when the photo from above was taken?

I dont think that is the picture/map date. I think its a copyright watermark that they forgot to make 2010.......  I went to areas that are for sure not last year, and it still says "© 2009 Google"  when mine was from 2005 it always had a current year copyright watermark and at the bottom of the map.  The one at the bottom says 2010......

I was looking at the map and I see that I am the Northern most point in North America.

Could be one of Santa's little helpers too.  Although I thought they spent the off season on an uncharted island in the gulf.   :-k

Interesting that my pin is the first in the Central Valley of CA. The weather is not too interesting here however so maybe that is why.

It is unique that the exact spot on my property where the ISS is located can be pinned. No worry about unintended visitors coming looking for my weather station. Three big dogs, a locked gate, and a shotgun loaded with 00 buck tends to discourage intrusions. Remember, this is California - land of the nuts and fringe.

The Google member map was disabled temporarily since it was based on Google V2 API (which Google turned off).
Unfortunately, there was no update to the plugin for the V3 API, so I'll have to rewrite it to bring it back.. it's on the 'to-do' list but it may be a while.
