Strange thing a lot of us tech geeks seem to have in common -- spending hours looking at maps = just like travelling, but for free, instantly! (Google Maps has made it way less fun tho, less room for imagination to come into play)

My first random location was a desolate stretch of highway in Saskatchewan, the only thing that wasn't prairie was a single hay bale (no joke, I think I have a screen shot somewhere on my HDD)
