Okay, kids, here’s the first bird’s eye view of a Pacific Northwest United Methodist location — where is it? and what’s a link to the bird’s eye view at Bing Maps?

Okay, kids, here’s the first bird’s eye view of a Pacific Northwest United Methodist location — where is it? and what’s a link to the bird’s eye view at Bing Maps?
Where is it?
Don’t know where it is… but why is there an aid car in the parking lot?
U.M. “locations” might not all be churches … 😉
I’m stumped. For those of us who do not recognize the building, you give few visual clues. 5 handicapped parking signs, an aid car; trees like Western Washington, but dry grass which could be Eastern side of conference but next to a streams (for the trees). Your comment above – might not all be churches – I’ve checked Deaconness, Atlantic Street, TCC, the Wesleys, Rockwood – pictures don’t match. It’s not UPS. Other sites where we have ministries – which are numerous – we don’t own the buildings except for camps and churches. I’m stumped. Please put me out of my misery.
Good thinking, Jo Dene. “Might not all be churches” might be a red herring, today.
All will be revealed — by next Sunday at 2.
I don’t remember how to answer this, but I got it! I don’t want to post the name and location of this place, but here’s the link (which kind of gives it away):

Nice work, Judy! But I think you don’t know the name. 😉
I found it too! but Aunt Judy figured it out first.
So I really hope this isn’t going to be mostly a Stanton Family game. (Jo Dene can be an honorary Stanton.) It’s Federal Way United Methodist Church. At first It reminded me of somewhere I was once that might have been a church in or near Woodinville, but then the U shape reminded me of FWUMC.
Speaking of Stantons, I received a two-word email from the Des Moines Stantons shortly after Judy posted her link — “Obviously: FWUMC”
Maybe they didn’t want to spoil everyone else’s fun.
For a location that didn’t have obvious visual clues, like street names, this was solved really quickly. (Congratulations Judy!)
The next SCHEDULED From Above contest is Sunday, January 31, 2 p.m. (WordPress lets me prepare a posting for their system to put online at a pre-set time; today’s came up within seconds of 2:00.)
I might stick another one up in the intervening week. I’m done sending emailed announcements, though. I’ll drop a note on Facebook, maybe twitter, sometime near starting time, and that’ll be about all.

I’ve never been to the Federal Way Methodist Church. Getting the right shot in the dark would really have been a long shot.
