Church Dining Room
Here’s another view of this church.
Urban designers sometimes use the term “wayfinding,” which means the use of signage or other visual clues to help people easily identify where they need to go. I suppose a church building itself could be considered an example of wayfinding, in a spiritual sense. But this church also used wayfinding in its urban design sense, too, with the Church Dining Room painted on the wall above the correct entrance to the dining room. Just out of this frame there is a sign that says Prayer Room.

What the one has to do with the other?
A (I’m guessing) power plant and an (I’m guessing) orca have somehow merged together. I don’t get it, but am assuming that the broad expanse of wall space was enticing for the marketing department for the Seattle Aquarium, which is just across the street.

Night registration
I guess when that cross-country drive in the giant motor home gets to be too much, a campground with night registration is a welcome sight. Even if it looks a little ominous.

Where open doors lead
I don’t actually know where these doors lead. It’s all about the mystery.
Except for the part that’s about not trespassing.

Office in alley
Sometimes the words, by themselves, make good sense. But then, when they’re stuck together…
That’s the case here. Midland. Supply. Library. Office. In. Alley. All good, useful words; you may have even used a couple of them yourself! But when they become a sign that says Midland Supply Library. Office in Alley? I’ve got nothing.
And to compound the confusion, I was IN the alley and didn’t see anything that looked even remotely office-y.
