FastDew, if that isn't Columbia Tower in downtown Seattle, then I really should check myself into Western State Hospital for the Criminally Insane! The beige colored building is the old US Federal Courthouse, William Kenzo Nakamura Courthouse, right?

But then, living in Seattle/Tacoma for 31 years probably doesn't make a whit of difference.

The real fun thing to do is to find the exact location on Google Maps where you guys took the pictures from. Seattle was taken from Western Ave just near Madison Ave and the one in Great Falls was taken from the northeast ramp of the airport, looking east.

Disclaimer: I spent 14 hours in A&P school today, I got bored.

Sadly, Meriwether Lewis was never granted the Captain's commission promised him by President Jefferson.

As promised, here is a difficult one. This is not a mainstream town, however if you have been there, the photo holds a dead give away on its location.

Darmstadt, Germany.

I thought it was Heidelberg at first but too flat of terrain.

The building really did give it away.

Nope. Not in Germany.
