Last Sunday’s edition, From Above #1, and Monday’s unscheduled From Above #1a, were both solved by Judith Meyer, who has a lot of time on her hands in Texas. (She didn’t identify #1a or turn in the link on this blog, though … so if anyone wants to jump in ahead of her, they can do so!
Today’s northwest U.M. location is below.
Where is it?
As always, solving the puzzle involves making a COMMENT on this blog entry containing:
- the name of the location AND
- a URL (web address) for the Bird’s Eye View at Bing Maps, for the rest of us to see the location as pictured.
Enjoy!
Got it!

Only because I’ve been there twice in the last nine months. Recognized it because of the gazebo.
Salmon Creek
[note: Bonnie, I changed your link to go straight to the aerial view, and leave out directions from your house Wes]
Yay, and Well done, Bonnie! Salmon Creek UMC it is.
I don’t know of other PNW UMC’s with new buildings, which have kept intact a really old church building as well. Some, like Bay View, have added a new wing to an old-time Board of Missions building … but Salmon Creek’s kept their old church building up, on lovely grounds. The image shows just a tiny bit of the modern building on the right-hand side.

Got it. The old church, with the gazebo by the wide makes it easy. Salmon Creek UMC.
I still haven’t found last weeks Monday church
Shalom, Jo Dene
One of these times, I’m going to have the pic of a former UMC that’s now something else — like the old church at Chinook is a restaurant or something, but not there.
One of the limiting factors is where there are bird’s eye views, and where not. An updated index of bird’s eye view locations is HERE
