Google Maps Terrain View

I love relief/terrain maps. I used to go into the TVA map store just to stare. The former Associate Dean of Covenant College had a terrain map in her office; sometimes I think I got in trouble just to have an excuse to look at it. I'm not a big fan of The Boathouse, but I love the map on the wall of their waiting area (and mojitos).

Now Google Maps has a Terrain View, and there went 2 hours of my life. What's next, a tax parcel map? At this rate they'll replace the GIS map system in a couple years.

Hunh. No wonder the sightings of intensely earnest yet irrepressibly roguish male undergrads have plummeted since I moved up here and decorated my office with icons and cross-stitch. Miss the map a fair bit; miss the office barely; miss you a great deal.
