Satellite imagery of our area was updated earlier this month. The resolution is pretty impressive. That is me working in the building to the north. Dwight & Gail's Place

I panned over to my place and the imagery (at my location) is over 7 years old. A house down the road was built in the spring of 2006 and it don't show up. I like Flash Earth. (Bing Maps) Flashearth Imagery (at my place) is just over a year ago. The way they took the imagery makes it look like a baron waste land instead of a forest. You can see the pine trees, but not any of the other trees. They took it when all the leaves were gone. Late fall or early winter. All you can see is shadows of the other trees. The sun was setting in the west. Don't know how to post it tho.

Dwight, mine got re-shot this summer right after the hay was baled, so I put it around the first of August. First new shot in 4 years.

Satellite imagery can seem to be a bit invasive. You and I do not have access to the real stuff  They just let us play with what is allowed accessible. What's the date code on that Corona you just set down on your dock?

Apparently someone is interested in our area as the imagery has been updated often:
4-1991 before the pond project was discussed and the silo, barn and other buidlings were still there. I think I can see a faint outline of of the go-kart track and several cars and pickup parts vehicles - bw/low resolution 9-2003 pond about half done - color/low resolution 12-2004 pond still about half done - color/low resolution 9-2006 pond complete -color/low resolution 9-2008 pond with dock and Barge complete - color/medium resolution 9-2009 - color/medium resolution 4-2011 - color/high resolution 10-2012 - color/very high resolution

They will probably keep updating imagery as it is allowed to the general public thru these venues. I doubt you will ever see imagery released to the public that might indicate, you may have split ends  They have some really good stuff up there.

If a problem should occur, our MSB (that is located on a property far from ours) is rigged and ready. It contains several hundred thousand magnesium rods collected from old water heaters prepped for remote ignition. As multiple satellites try to regain focus (for several hours, maybe even days) we will disappear in to a place the Blair has prepared for us up there north of Saskatchewan.

... we will disappear in to a place that Blair has prepared for us up there north of Saskatchewan. I'm really surprised you posted that. The place where Blair actually lives and raises his fish is in the southwestern US at a place known as Groom Lake. The accent is all part of his ploy. Don't ya wanna bet that is why he hangs out with people like Dwight? Just so he can sound legit, eh? I don't believe that where he claims to live even exists. I've been to Winnipeg, and there is absolutely nothing north or west of it! But, where he really lives is a great place to hide out. Like Saskatchewan, even Google doesn't have any real photos of it.

I like how you call him "the Blair."
Heck, we might all be heading there!

Here I thought I was the only one he had a place prepared for...something's definitely up.... The Blair (code name) Project is necessarily secretive about the scope of this member funded program. Suffice it to say the requirements for membership are extremely restrictive. Only the founders are included at this time so the Project is more likely using you as a cloaker. Cloakers are used in numerous ways to prevent disclosure of actual Project agendas. I could be a cloaker, Blair could be a cloaker. No one knows for sure.

What? We're all coming to live with you.
Have you parceled out your land yet? I'll need a quarter section for myself. Dwight will be good in the shed out back.

I'll translate Canadian for you hosers: whacked means totally awesome in English! Canadians commonly use the term to describe Americans they greatly look up to. It's typically used as a complement or phrase of submission to superiors.

Oh yeah, the Blair? How are all those fish feeders working? You know, the ones you bought at PB-V with no fish in your ponds?
