I'm not convinced it's even in the US.

I thought the trees might help but if you're high up a mountain that could be harder again. The not-too-modern feel of it all is making me think Costa Rica maybe? no idea though

Puerto, not Costa

Never been to Puerto Rico but not really getting a Caribbean island vibe from that pic. Still thinking it's somewhere a bit cold and damp in mainland USA

Somewhere near a lake, I see two boats.

Somewhere in Alaska maybe.

looks like a lake or river in the distance in shot 2?

or maybe just fog
I poked around Juneau for a bit the other day, it did look right for a few reasons but I couldn't find the spot

alaska has yellow license plates which we see in pic 2 but not on the sedan or the truck in pic 1, what are the chances. seems like the least likely state to have 2 out of state vehicles in one place (from 2 different states)
― ciderpress, Thursday, 28 July 2022 18:02 (one year ago) link
i guess if the sedan is a BC plate then that improves the odds a little

Great work, Ciderpress. I didn’t really wander far from picture 1. If for some reason it was going to carry on longer there are many street view pics with a massive cruise liner in the port.

i followed my previous train of thought of 'white plates in alaska -> might be BC plates -> alaska near BC' and then was lucky enough to drop the streetview guy right on the same block as pic #2 when i checked that town
― ciderpress, Thursday, 28 July 2022 19:04 (one year ago) link
props to the people who identified it as alaska though, i was looking in oregon before that

damn, all those posts on blue white yellow plates earlier and somehow missed that one

Britain, but which part?
― StanM, Tuesday, 2 August 2022 07:15 (one year ago) link
is there a (maybe even non-horizontal) football pitch behind that building?
― StanM, Tuesday, 2 August 2022 08:10 (one year ago) link
could be Yorkshire, Derbyshire, Lancashire, up to the Scottish Borders. Be tough to narrow down

Is it a city or is it a town?

haven't got a clue. There are a lot of very nice landscapes in Britain though. Well done. :)
― StanM, Wednesday, 3 August 2022 18:07 (one year ago) link
yeah that could be anywhere north of derbyshire.
― 𝔠𝔞𝔢𝔨 (caek), Wednesday, 3 August 2022 18:10 (one year ago) link
looks like some sort of abandoned facility behind there whatever it is, or else seasonal (fairgrounds?)
― ciderpress, Wednesday, 3 August 2022 18:53 (one year ago) link
certainly has a football ground type vibe to it
― Ste, Wednesday, 3 August 2022 21:29 (one year ago) link
yeah I've been looking for football pitches on the outskirts of the likes of Rochdale, Oldham, Buxton, Blackburn and Burnley but nothing as yet

I wonder if the wooden repairs to the (canteen?) mean that there was a fire there (somewhere before 2019 as that is the Google copyright date) & this window+roof are new but then the budget was gone? (Or that I just have an over-active imagination)
― StanM, Thursday, 4 August 2022 00:04 (one year ago) link
Not much to go on, other than it looks like the north of England. And even that doesn't seem certain, I mean it could be Ireland or Scotland.

If it wasn't for the car parked the wrong way, it could even be Brittany!

... what is that green box/object ? A fancy garbage bin, so close to another one just outside the park?
― StanM, Monday, 8 August 2022 14:11 (one year ago) link
I'm curious about that strange gate in the fence. Is that perhaps a gate to a dog run, designed to keep dogs from running out while the gate is open? I've never seen that design before. That might explain the small garbage bin on the fence (for dog waste) vs the larger bin outside.

― dear confusion the catastrophe waitress (ledge), Monday, 8 August 2022 15:17 (one year ago) link
The name comes from the gate merely "kissing" (touching) the inside of the enclosure.
What nonsense. As I tell all my friends whenever we come across such a gate, it comes from the fact that you have to give the person in front a kiss before they allow you to pass through.
