Google Earth/Finding My Home

I tried to fly to my address but there was no house there.  My house just got done getting built last May so it's not on google earth yet.  My coordinates are 41 degrees North and 103 degrees West and the elevation 3884 feet.  Students would love to see their own house on google earth, especially for elementary students.  You could incorporate math into the elevtion and ask how many more feet do they have to add to reach a mile high in education and how different it is to live at a higher elevation.  You could use science to determine why it's harder to breath in higher elevations and why the humidity is lower at higher elevations.
