Did you try entering either your address, city or zipcode in the
"search" box. It then should give you a dialog box. I did this and for
a moment it didn't work as designed but on the second try it did (???)

I tried it about 6 times. I got no dialog box, only a map of my
neighborhood. I tried clicking on "mesage board" and some other links,
but no go.

Well crap, it only seems to work for me after I've logged in to the

drill in to your location and click the map. I first placed my marker
by zip code, nowhere near my house. Then I poked in my street address,
it left my little devil sitting in the middle of the street, can't
have that, might get run over. I deleted it and zoomed in on my house.
I'm now safe and sound sitting on the roof over my garage. If anyone
is in the neighborhood, could you drop off a ladder? I need to go
inside and pee...
I also placed a marker at my favorite camping spot at Baumgartner.

First, I just put my pointer on Smackover. Then, I zoomed in really
close, and added a pointer for Deb, right to the east side of our
house.
(The Wudsracer Family TightSingleTrack practice trail takes up the
whole area under and around the trees immediately to the west and
northwest of the house.)
If you look to the north of my house, across the railroad tracks,
and off to the east, you can see the swamps to which I have referred
in the past. There is more water in amongst the trees at the moment,
than the satellite photo shows.
If one follows the rr tracks to the east a few miles out of town, to
where the rr makes a large "S" curve, and look east of the tracks and
south of the "All Gulf Road", one can see where I make my living.
At one time, I had 12.5 miles of tight single track "workout trail"
on the lease and the neighboring 320 acres.

Sorry, shoulda clued you in on that "feature" I did the same thing when I
set up the one for STP.
By the way, not that I'm spreading paranoia or anything, but a wise man once
pointed out to me that it might not be such a good idea to throw out an
exact home address on a public map when it is so easy for a perp to query up
your post history and see that maybe you have a garage out back with a
crappy lock and 20 or so really cool dirtbikes inside. Course if they show
up with the intention of taking mine for a spin, they may also get to meet
Messer's Ruger, Smith, Wesson, Mossberg, Browning et al. My pointer is not
on the house, but you can walk to it from this spot.

Normally, I don't keep bikes at the house, unless they are in the
truck. Guns are a different story, The sign on the front porch says,
"Never mind the dog. Beware the owner."
My favorite business combination is the 12 ga pump and the .45 acp

Well, I still might buy it, I think it is a pretty good deal even
without the trades. The 250 I am looking at is a brand new (in the
crate) leftover 2006 Suzuki four stroke for $3500. I was hoping though
to get rid of the 08 TTR 125 I have had sitting idle in my basement
since about 5 weeks after I bought it. And the 08 KX100 I have been
riding this year. Still paying on the damn thing (TTR) but it just
doesn't cut it on the MX track. The 100 is great, but a bit small for
me, as we all knew it would be.

Sorry to hear that.
Sell the bikes outright during the Christmas season when Mom and Dad are
willing to pay a bit more to ensure their young'uns happiness and then pick
something up when the deals hit mid-winter.
Midwinter may already be hitting here in the south, there are some fairly
good buys out there now.
Couple of examples.

I've been looking for a ttr125 electric start
around here the nice ones are 1200-1500 or so
when one hits the 1000 mark in a month or two
I'll bite. I think I'll sell the xr50, although it's a lot of

Also, most of the map I searched is older than 2005. My NC and FL
