My Arizona trip, via google earth...

Postby weazzle on Wed Jul 27, 2005 10:11 pm

I was checking out google earth the other day, and decided to see if I could find the spot where I went on vacation during spring with my girlfriend and her family. I cam across a number of sites that landmarked the trip back:

This was the group of ball parks where we saw the Cubs (favorite team) play:

Throughout the ball game we kept seeing fighter jets flying over. We later drove by the base they were coming from:

We headed back to the airport in Pheonix, can't remember its name:

And flew from there back to PDX in Portland, Oregon:

Then we drove back to good town of Corvallis to Oregon State University:

And back to my place of residence during the school year, Finley Hall:

And that is the end of the incredible journey.

Hope you enjoyed it as much as I enjoyed putting it together :)

I don't know if I've ever seen so many ball parks in a single palce before... wow.

apparently that is the summer pratice center for baseball teams. Most of the players have summer homes right around there. It was fun because there weren't many people there compared to games during the year, and tickets were cheaper. I had a good trip, I wonder if I can find the desert gardens we visited...
