Google Map of the new Camp Casey?
Edited on Tue Aug-16-05 07:38 PM by eleny
The nearest church to W's place is St. Paul's Lutheran Church. That particular church is very close to W's place. It's west of town and just a few roads southwest of the "ranch".

You can open the Google Map from the url we got here a while back http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=31.582700,-97.543620&spn=0.013233,0.019834&t=k&hl=en zoom out one notch and just drift west and then south. Change the map's view to Hyprid in the upper right corner. The church is on Prairie Chapel Road between Honey Bee Lane and Canaan Church Road.

This is just a search I did because they said the new spot is closer to the ranch and across from a church. This church fits that description. If there's better info, please post it!

Google Maps doesn't permit copying its maps, so I can't post a jpg.

St Paul Lutheran Church
(254) 486-2126
140 Prairie Chapel Rd
Crawford, TX 76638

2. P.S.
Canaan Baptist is also nearby on Coryell City Road just west of Canaan Church Road. West of the St. Paul's Lutheran Church.

7. You need to do some things to locate the church
Switch the view to Hybrid at Google to show the roads imposed on this satellite view. Then click and drag your cursor to drift west and a smidge south and find the roads I indicated. That pinpoints the location that may be the new area of Camp Casey if they move.

4. Where's Crazy Larry's house and the triangle of grass on
Prairie Chapel Road? I can't tell if it's just south of the Bush ranch.

Camp casey at lower right, pig farm centre top beside lake, Lutheran Church at lower left.

I have heard that the proposed land is across the road from A church. The pasture just south of the church is about the 180 acres mentioned. I measured it on Google Earth.

9. Is the church the place where the cross on the map is?
Wonder if they did that on purpose.

Where is the old vs. the new camp?

17. Distance from W?
From a recent press release:

"CRAWFORD, Texas - One of
President Bush's neighbors will allow use of his land by dozens of war protesters who have camped in roadside ditches the past 11 days, giving them more room and halving their distance from Bush's ranch."

24. Cool
Nice to know that not all of Crawford's residents are as crazy as that guy shooting in the air.

Then again, one of their newspapers didn't even endorse him in '04.

18. Okay, dish.
How are you copying Google Earth images into photobucket? I've been trying but haven't been able to do so.

Help.

19. This is what I've done
I didn't go directly to Photobucket. I used the sceenshot feature in my PhotoImpact software and grabbed the Google map page. Then I added my text, cropped and resized then uploaded to Photobucket. So, no mystery.

25. Yes and more to the left of this in your pic, too
Someone who posted the original url for the Google map said that there's a helicopter pad and hangar. Also some out buildings. South of it, I think is a guest house.
