Virgil,
I'm sure this isn't the most efficient process but I typed the name of a nearby town into the Google earth search box, (maybe you can use the zip code also) and just moved the mouse around the area til I saw our farm. Then I zoomed in on it and kept moving the mouse to try and keep all my fields centered. Finally found an elevation that allowed me to see all the fields at once. I can zoom in closer but can't get a clear enough picture to count the slate on the roofs. You can read the coordinates at the bottom of the picture. Another way to find your place would be to click on the world globe that shows up in the beginning near to where you think your place is. then zoom in and movearound until something looks familiar and move to your place. Of course you could probably get coordinates a lot of other ways also like survey maps or topomaps etc.
