Thought this might be an interesting one...

I get the feeling of Windows and MicroSoft in Redmond, WA...
...curved paths leading to squares with colored umbrellas

Ummm....that's an allegory :rolleyes:

It's not Microsloth. But you're close.

Geographically.

Well, closer than I am, anyway.

It's not around the corner from you or anything, but it's not on my side of the continent, either.

Google campus in Redmond, WA?

I agree, it has something to do with Google.

I was using Google Earth to look over MicroSoft's buildings,
and then thought that Wolf would be devious enough to use Google.

So I went to Google, Kirkland, WA and found this building,
with colored umbrellas and curved paths.

But Wolf's place is not the Kirkland campus... Google somewhere else.

It's Google HQ in Mountain View

I thought it would be amusing to use a googlemap image of Google. The color of the umbrellas was the giveaway, really ... otherwise I would have posted a shot that focused on the acres upon acres of solar panels on the rooves of the buildings. I thought the streetview was a lot of fun.

Looking at some of UT's assortment, though ... check this ... Google is apparently the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow ...

It looks like the base from some old Atari game...which one I haven't a clue. ;)

Old, palm trees, and water... I'm going to start with Florida, maybe the Dry Tortugas ?

glatt 10-31-2011 09:26 AM

Note the shadows cast by palm trees. This place is in the south.

The St Augustine Fort at Castillo de San Marcos.

Ehhh UT, you beat me by just seconds...

Google search of "Florida Forts"
I think this is it...pic of CASTILLO DE SAN MARCOS
