Where am I?

Well, these rainy days have been so productive for me. . .

One of the things that I have been wanting to do for some time is show everyone where I live.  How to do that?  
Google Earth of course.

Untill recently, the pictures of our area were rather, well, bad.  But there are some updated images now, and you can actually see our house!  yay!

So here goes:
Our house:                                  19°48'57.15"N,  70°56'6.86"W
The El Ranchito Hall:              19°48'4.16"N,  70°56'51.35"W
Matt and Debora's Building :   19°53'31.75"N,  70°57'42.80"W
The Luperon Hall:                  19°53'15.86"N,  70°57'47.19"W

If you have Google Earth, there should be a box in the upper left of the program that says "Fly To."  Simply copy and past the numbers above into the little box, hit enter and watch the world spin, magically stopping above my house.  Cool huh.

If you don't yet have Google Earth, but know enough about computers to follow instructions, and wish to waste a bunch of time looking at my house from space (and finding yours too!) just search for "Google Earth" (on, I don't know, Google maybe?) and follow the instructions.

Happy hunting!
