Thanks! I just can’t get to the game in question. I’m just giving up on it for now.

Thanks for your help.

The website has changed from what I recall.

There seems to be the ability to “Challenge” others.

This is all new to me, but if you’re up for a challenge than follow the link.

I think.

Thanks!

Ok. We’ve got flatlands here, with no mountains even in the distance. Farmland. A concrete road with an immaculate border of gravel. A railroad bridge over a river. Deciduous trees. A farm with metal outbuildings. A wind fence.

It could be Oklahoma.

I just cheated a little on the 3rd one.

Saw a highway sign and got within 2 miles.

I just looked at your profile. I’m a military brat too! At one time, we lived in Falls Church, and two of my siblings were born in Virginia. :)

I’m on #4 of the challenge.

Rural residential.

No chimneys.

Somewhat flat, but within rolling hills to be sure.

No Pines.

Propane tanks in the front yard.

Fire Hydrants and a sidewalk on one side of the street.

This has to be the edge of a much bigger city.

Found some Pine trees and much larger homes in the distance.

My gut is North Carolina.

Between Charlotte and Asheville.

But closer to Charlotte.

I missed it by 276 miles.

Just outside of Birmingham.

Interesting. You’re right-it’s not completely flat.

Middle of nowhere.

A few Cedar trees lining the road.

My attention has shifted to the Caps game.

Sorry.

Maybe we can have fun tomorrow?

Rather flat roof for a place that gets lots of snow. Road doesn’t look like it has much trouble with ice thaw/freeze either.
