Derp. Yes, those are the exact words that I meant. It didn't even dawn on me that it was from street view when I realized that ©2011 was the first part.

With that in mind, though, live oaks or cypress trees with Spanish moss aren't out of place in the least in Florida. The co-ordinates do not seem too "off" to me.


Seconded. And the Florida intersection mentioned before is in Oakbridge parkway, so I'm looking around there.

Or maybe there's another combination of numbers we should look for?

 		I feel like these coordinates should be the correct combo. The other attempts I've tried land me only in the ocean, Greenland, or North Africa/Middle East area.

If anyone's gonna troll the neighborhoods with me, make sure you check when the image was taken on the bottom on the streetview screen. Some were taken in 2012, and we apparently just want 2011 and a house with a red/brown roof.

 		I just thought they were off as in, not quite right since it was an intersection and a swamp. The intersection seems most likely, though. I'm up in the backwoods of NY, so good luck to all of you digging around.

Edit: There is a rather large field near that intersection, though.

Awesome! I.. have no idea. I am nowhere near there. I guess we hope someone in the area can find it/the drop.

 		Wow, that was a huge distance away from the coordinates... good job, CodeB!

But the history of the location could be more important than the actual location, going off on when Johnny said "What the attached file shows disrupts my peace.Not it as it is, but rather what it was."

Has anyone contacted Johnny about it yet?

 		This was my conversation with him. We better stick to speculation, perhaps..

I know you feel something about this location. Can I help you?

What could you do?

If there's some way to help, tell me and I'll consider.

Also I found a company with that adress: S. W. Brown Grove, Inc.

 		ok i went on a hunch here....

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

* looking around the area i noticed all of the roads were trees, and the picture of the Spanish Oak (right?) led me to a road just north - "Oak Trail" which seemed ARG-y to me

* towards the end of the oak trail was Durling Design Outlet, leading to
wwwDOTdurlingdesignoutletlakelandDOTcom

* reading the site, idk it seems like it could be something (maybe a puzzle on the 'santabarbara' page?). only one e-mail and a phone number.

ingame or not?




ETA:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Zooming in on the location pulls up only a house, not a "Design Warehouse" (perhaps the PMs house)



[/mytwocents]


ETA again:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

we also have Christina Park, a couple of lakes, a nearby post-office, the church as well. hmm..

 		I don't think Durling is related. They are located at the end of Ridge Drive and seem like a legit business with just an ugly website.

If anything, there might be a connection to Johnny and the name Christina, or something happening at the lake, but I'm not really finding any interesting history on anything in the area.
