One sign that I am missing the District of Columbia would be other people's photographs of cherry blossoms and random buildings like the Jefferson Memorial. Oh, Flickr...
The photo, of course, isn't mine. But it is nice.

So, tonight I look back at the directions that I wrote to the venue for my wedding (the Catholic ceremony, that is, for those who must know), which included a Google Maps pointer for the church, naturally.
To cut a long story short, not only is the smallest incorporated place (population 29, that is) in Ohio now in Google Street View's coverage (all five or so streets and two intersections in the town limits, albeit just an intersection view of side streets from the main road of the town), the said church can be seen. And there's the church hall across the road, too.

But walking past the same local precinct (that I was standing outside of earlier, waiting with my wife for her turn to vote), Mike's Video, TV & Appliance, shortly before (hence the bad photographic quality of the Motorola V325), I came across the following:
But that was just a preview of the rest of the line:
