Swiss Plains

I'm looking at a scene in Google Earth. You can see it if you go to 47 degrees 20 minutes 59.68 seconds N, 9 degrees 2 minutes 30.85 seconds E at an eye altitude of 8999 feet, looking vertically down, with north at the top. The coordinates appear across the bottom of the image, as you move around. Adjust this so you see Dottingen (a village) in the upper right hand corner.

For some reason I feel I know the name Dottingen. I mean, I spent time in Switzerland, but I have no idea why Dottingen sounds familiar, it just does. It's kind of fun.

I just noticed there's a place marker, "user created content," for the "municipality" of Mosnag. Don't miss it!!!

If we study these images, it might enable us to connect to, and even become part of, the Swiss economy, which would be nice. Same could be said for anyplace.

It's weird, writing, at this stage, because I don't know of anyone who's reading my posts, but I guess something could happen if I keep going.
