    My job has me traveling through areas where other members live, so I figure I might as well have a little fun with it.
    Lets see how well you know your surroundings when they're out of your environment.
    I'll post pics from my cell of structural and geographic landmarks. Could be city skylines, signs, buildings, bridges, etc and you answer in a question format beginning with" What is or Where is"
    Some will be pretty easy, while others will be teasers meant to trip you up. Look for clues in the pic combined with clues from my posts of my current travels to find the answers.

    Example

    "What is the Statue of Liberty" or "Where is NYC"

    Have fun with it

    There's a bridge identical to that one over the Ohio between Indiana and Kentucky on USA 231 northeast of Owensboro.

    Veterans Memorial Skyway. I think.

    It's the design that shouldn't be used this far north on account of that whole "huge chunks of ice that fall off and down onto the inside lanes of traffic because ice forms so easily on the structure" design.

    That bridge freaks me out. The physics just don't work for me.

    That's not too far from where I hear you hang out once in a while at Stoney Ridge.

    It looks just like the Sunshine Skyway between Pinellas and Manatee Counties.

    Looks like a speedway, just not sure where. And maybe it's the picture, but it doesn't look like a big motor speedway to me.
