Interesting to say the least.
I have to admit I have used Google Maps Street View to revisit my childhood home and virtually stroll through interesting places I have been to. Sometimes my heart beats a little fast when I say “OMG! I forgot that (whatever the heck it was) was there!”
I loved this one, captioned “I wish I could still have a lemonade stand business.”

Be careful. I showed this site to the wife, and now she’s going through albums and emptying shoeboxes of old pics. My weekend is in jeopardy...
As valid as every childhood photo of he-who-must-not-be-middle-named...
It’s a cool idea, but you don’t really need gmail to do it.
I have always wanted to do this with my Dad’s pictures from his Army days in Germany, 1951-53. He won’t fly back there, but someday I hope to recreate the photos of the same places.
