Taylor will actually be in D.C. this weekend ahead of a conference he’s attending in town next week (he’ll be blogging his experience — stay tuned for details). We’re headed to some baseball games tonight and tomorrow, so posting will be light (if at all existent) this weekend. In addition to a potential “questioning things” post this afternoon (but don’t get your hopes up), I wanted to give you a new challenge to chew on.
I’ve got three zoom levels for you. Please note that the final image is slightly tilted and not oriented to the north. The orange redactions on all three images hide the name of the imagery provider, which would have given the answer away pretty easily.
This particular site has not specifically been in the news recently, but the larger idea/program has been. Nonetheless, I’m looking for the name of this location, along with city, state (if applicable), and country. Might have to fire up Google Earth for this one, folks.
[Update: Courtyard Pwned by Marriott.]








That, sir, looks like………[leaving lots of space so that people don't see my comment on the front page]……a hog farm?
Oil refinery?
Nope to both, sorry dudes.
I’ve found a new plug-in for the comments that should allow me to exclude SatChal posts (by the same developer as our “similar posts” feature which has functioned seamlessly).
I can’t implement until I get home, but expect that to be installed over the weekend. Thanks for your patience, folks.
One of them thar ethanol-from-algae thingies?
No suh.
Strategic Oil Reserve….
Freeport, Texas
Perhaps the most secretive area in the United States…this is what they need to tap into so I don’t pay $5 for a gallon of gas
Nailed it!
