Dave, here is a test

Submitted by Doug Floor Plan on Fri, 10/22/2021 - 5:18am.

This should embed a map ">Hamilton but it isn't working. The address Google supplies to embed doesn't look the same as it usually does. Just FYI.

[Don't use an "a href" tag. Simply copy and paste the code google gives you, as I've done below. - Dave]

Thank you, Dave. It's 6AM the next day and after sleeping I realize I overthought the problem. I wish I could say it's the first time I've done that.

Who will be the first commenter to correctly embed a Street View of 21st-century Hamilton?

Passed Gas (station)

Submitted by Notcom on Thu, 10/21/2021 - 11:14am.

Today, the major change is that the gas station has been replaced - not the other was around for once !! - by a building that looks almost as old as this photo.
