No, not Falmouth Fred. Falmouth is the one in the distance behind English in the photo a couple of posts back. The one I'm looking for is on the west coast and is mostly surrounded by sets of Row (called a terrace in England) houses which are pretty horrible looking. I rented a nicer standalone house in this 'happy' (think of another word that means happy) harbour.

So onto something completely different. Ignore the lovely ladies in purple, the key to this picture is behind them. Where am I? If you know this one, it might go quickly.

If you are wondering what we were doing on the racetrack, it is an annual half marathon called the Indy Mini where you run a lap on the track. Not sure if they still let you as this was a bit ago, but it was very cool to enter the track and see/run the banked turns as well as the pole and the bricks.

I'm sure that was fun!!! First thing I saw were the old bricks in the racetrack! I'll post a photo shortly.

Given the color of the seats, I'll say Tallahassee and FSU.

Not sure where it is but it’s a big concert with a piano. I’m going Billy Joel somewhere.

Fred, you got it! This is the civic center where the Noles play basketball. We were there for the Jimmy Buffett/KC/Toby Keith benefit concert after Irma and Maria, "Trying to Reason with Hurricane Season". I'm sure there were other TTOL's there as well!

Here is one out of the airplane window and a little less of a "giveaway" than some other pictures I have, but I'll see how this goes. I'm looking for the major city name.

No idea, but just to narrow down somewhat, the Pacific northwest on the Canadian side?

That's too far north for me to ever go! Anchorage? The only name I know up there.
