22 - Erh-t'ai, China

In Xinjiang, W of the Mongolian frontier.

111 - El Toro, California

NE of Laguna Beach.

Before it was decommissioned in 1999, it was the home of Marine Corps aviation on the West Coast. Designated as a Master Jet Station, its four runways (two of 8,000 feet (2,400 m) and two of 10,000 feet) could handle the largest aircraft in the U.S. military inventory. All U.S. Presidents in the post-WWII era have landed in Air Force One at this airfield.

85 - El Minya, Egypt

150mi. upstream from Cairo. The Codex Tchacos, including the recently famous Gospel of Judas, was found by a "treasure-hunter" near El-Minya in the 1970s.

59 - Errill, Ireland

In the SW corner of County Laois. I like the patches of orange in the satellite image of Ireland -- how like the flag!

32 - Esfahan, Iran

200mi. S of Qom.

122 - Eastern Island, Palmyra Atoll, Pacific Ocean

1200mi. SW of Hawaii. Part of an off-and-on inhabited Palmyra Atoll, ruled in an unincorporated fashion by the USA (and owned, since 2000, by the Nature Conservancy).

In 1859, Palmyra was claimed by Dr. Gerrit P. Judd of the brig Josephine for the American Guano Company and the United States, in accordance with the Guano Islands Act of 1856; however, the company never started mining for guano, because there was none to be mined.

Also, here's a delicious quote from the Palmyra wikipedia page, about the ungratefully conserved wildlife of Palmyra:

The main problem was the "Goonie" birds. Feasting in the evening, they could be drenched by the rain and become unable to return to their roosting grounds. Being attracted by the camp lights, they stopped over and usually regurgitated their meal all over the camps.

96 - La Estrella, Canary Islands

Town on the E coast of Gran Canaria, the roundest of the Isles.

70 - Essay, France

NE of Alençon, department of Orne, in the southern bit of Normandy. Here's my sketch of a room at a chateau-cum-hotel there. I'm trying a new quick-sketch technique: first block in the basic colors, then a layer of sketching in black, and a top layer in white. Still trying to figure out a default photoshop brush to use with the tablet. And one day I'll get the lines semi-straight. Incidentally, searching for "Essay, France" turns up lots of sites to help you cheat on your French homework. I had to figure out the postal code before the results got meaningful.
