Technology makes easy work to spy into people's yards. Today, I was using nearmap.com.au which is like Google Maps but higher resolution and a timeline where you can look back in time (Perth has about 2 years of data) and see how things have changed...
I had a look at my folk's old house, where the family lived until 1997ish. Boy have things changed. This shot was taken in winter (the grass is green .. the latest one in Dec 2009 shows everything dead/brown). The only things which have remained after 13 years are the pavers and the concrete slab where the shade house used to be. No more citrus plants. No large patch of buffalo to play on (or ride and get prickles on). All my childhood memories are now just that.
