The Subversive Archaeologist's World Headquarters Has Relocated 1571.04 Kilometers North Of Its Previous Location!


While it would violate the rules of privacy to give you an address, the following series of images should enable any one of you to find me, from anywhere in the world [thanks to Google Earth!]. All visitors will be welcome after the first of August, upon which date I will be moving in. Happiness, meet Rob.
 
There's a teeny, tiny, yellow push pin near the 49th parallel north—the new location of World Headquarters!
Just the northern bits of North America shown here. Note the lovely, crinkly edges.
The lighter green (low elevation) geological feature is commonly referred to as the Lower Fraser Valley of British Columbia, but as you can plainly see it extends south of the 49th parallel, well into Washington State. We Canadians and Americans living here are therefore more than children of a common mother, we're children of a common geomorphic process! This area has historically been the vegetable basket of Western Canada. The fruit basket is further east in the Okanagan Valley, while the bread basket is the Prairie Provinces. Who knows what those scalawags in Ontario and Québec subsisted on for all these years!
Birch Bay Village. Land of artificial lakes, an executive golf course, tennis courts, a pool, miles of beaches, a marina, and 24/7 security. And all for $795 a month, which is $555 less than it cost for the previous World Headquarters in Santa Cruz, CA.
The new World Headquarters of the Subversive Archaeologist! A detached house in suburbia. I've finally made it to the middle class ... erm ... actually I've made it to single-family dwelling. I can't call myself Middle Class until I own such a place. And we all know when that'll happen. Don't we? When porcines sprout wings!
