Good luck in finding your house! You will find the area has changed a bit since this satellite image was taken.. Rimping is a building site.

18 degrees,49 ',25.67" N

99degrees 00',40.69E

You will see the empty building site. When I moved here I had to show the taxi driver my house I had rented on Google Earth as he had no clues. What subdivision is your house in?

Anyone clue me in as to how to type the little circle for degrees?

It's kind of sad that I know this, but ...... for Windows, to type the degree symbol ° hold down the RIGHT Alt key and type the numbers 0176 on the numeric keypad. That is the block of number keys at the far right of the keyboard. On a notebook, you have to engage the numlock key and punch the numbers written on the letter keys, not the ones on the top row of the keyboard. In windows XP, 2000 or 98 (and Vista?), it is probably easier to just start the Character Map application (found under Accessories, System Tools) and select, then copy and paste the character you want from there.
