Here is a [LINK](http://www.newschannel5.com/content/weather/skynet_murfreesboro.shtml) to a webcam overlooking my town square. Shows our 19th Century Courthouse, that used to be Tennessee’s State Capitol Building. A little history, & a few links beneath. And a link to a city map. Controls are self-explanitory. Enjoy. ---

Sheesh…what’s up with that white minivan constantly blocking the interection on the left? It’s like he just keeps driving around the block, making the same boneheaded move over and over and over again… ---

It’s also where Cooper’s Cave is located. The setting for “The Last of the Mohicans”. ---

Santa Rosa’s [weathercam](http://www.northbayweather.com/cams/srpd_morepix.shtml). Pretty boring. I live pretty much at the base of the ‘hill’ in that image, Taylor Mountain. This view is looking south down one of the main thoroughfares downtown, Mendocino Ave. There are better images of the town [here](http://www.city-data.com/city/Santa-Rosa-California.html). Hitchcock fans might recognize the [Empire Building](http://www.city-data.com/picfilesc/picc2836.php) in Old Courthouse Square (also seen from a distance in the weathercam) and the [train station](http://www.city-data.com/picfilesv/picv4873.php) (now a visitor center) in Railroad Square from _Shadow of a Doubt_. ---

Seems it’s a bit warmer where you line. [Webcam looking on to my town’s marketplace](http://www.tuebingen.de/en/1559_webcam.html) - it’s below freezing and everybody is snug at home. (The guy on the lower left is Neptune and of bronze, he has to stay put) ---

[Here’s where I live](http://www.kyhometown.com/lexington/). Well, the downtown area anyway. Not too remarkable except that one of those buildings was used in the filming of that great cinema classic [Steel](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0081558/) starring Lee Majors. Unfortunately a stuntman was killed during filming.
