Congrats to Judy Meyer, who located the view from above #1 as Federal Way UMC
This one’s not scheduled, but here’s another UM location to locate — I think none of my relatives are likely to have been to this one.
Superfluous hint: it’s not in the Tacoma District.
Wow, I hope that’s the parsonage next door!
Got it.
One technicality, Judy: you don’t have it until you post it here. But yes, you found it.
You didn’t mention where it was but it looks like Yakima or Ellensburg area.
And is that the parsonage in the upper left hand corner of the parking lot?
Leona: The puzzle is to figure it out, & find the bird’s eye view I clipped at Bing Maps.
A hint about Bing Maps & their bird’s eye views: they don’t have bird’s eye views for most rural areas, & not many small towns.
My sister Judy did figure it out last Monday … it’s Moran UMC, Spokane. Since she emailed me the reply, rather than posting it here, and since I wanted to bug her as is a big brother’s privilege, I didn’t count it. Here’s her letter from last week:
“It’s Moran UMC in the Spokane area (LINK).
“I had to hunt. Here’s what I did: I went to the PNW annual conference website. I got a list of churches in a district that looked like it could have a big flat dry field next to a church. For each church, I opened a new window. The conference website links to a Google map. I zoomed in on the Google map, then added in the satellite view, until I found something that matched. I only had to go halfway down the list.
