Noticed that Google has expanded its Street View to include all streets in HB.  For those who haven't yet used Street View, go to GOOGLE.COM, then hit the MAPS button.  Once in maps, enter 11414 in the location field at the top left (or any location worldwide that you wish to see), hit enter, then when the map appears, select Street View (grid with blue lines should show up) and work from there.  For some reason, the block with the train, Malone's etc  is not displayed, but it's fun to look at Ray and Peggy Flynn's house at the corner of 162 & 96 and remember that a Weeping Willow tree used to be in the corner of their backyard and see the faces of their three little children (probably grandparents by now) looking out the window in amazement at a blown over tree.

Thanks John, that was a lot of fun.  We have been gone from HB for 35 years but it's amazing how familiar it all still looks.  Some homes haven't changed at all, while others have had major overhauls. Thanks again......
