My Google Earth is Gone

Actually, I don't think it was Google Earth that I had, I think it was Microsoft Maps, but I used to be able to switch it from map to satellite mode and now I can't.  I tried downloading the real Google Earth, but they gave me a song and dance about my drivers, and then they wanted to charge me $9.99 for what was advertised as a free app.  Anyway, that mysterious green square looks familiar.  I seem to remember that it's the steel roof of a barn or similar building.  I'll try to remember to check it out next time I drive by there on the way to town.

I tried to quit smoking a few times, but my heart wasn't in it.  People who have quit have told me that you have to want to do it, and I don't.  About ten years ago, I had to quit for over three months because I had a bleeding ulcer.  What got me through it was assuring myself that it was only temporary.  When the ulcer was healed, I started smoking again, but not in the house.  We have an attached garage that we don't use for a garage, it's where we have our wood burning furnace, a workbench, tools, and other assorted stuff, so that became my smoking lounge.  I now smoke about 15 cigarettes a day, half of what I used to smoke.  I wasn't trying to cut down, it's just that it's a little inconvenient now so I don't do as much of it.
