Along I-10 in Cabazon, CA you will find the Cabazon dinosaurs. From the shadow it is quite easy to spot the giant Apatosaurus known as “Dinny”, who has a gift shop inside his belly. To the north of Dinny is a Tyrannosaurus known as Rex, who is a bit more difficult to spot. The two were featured in the movie “Pee Wee’s Big Adventure” or you can see the both of them from ground level here.

Two stadiums in downtown Baltimore, Maryland – on the top is Camden Yards where the Baltimore Orioles play and below that is M&T Bank Stadium where the Baltimore Ravens play.

A sea of people in Golden Gate Park at what looks like a day time concert. Can anyone identify who’s playing?

Giant Ford logo at the Ford Proving Grounds, Dearborn. A little to the east is what appears to be a large black vehicle driving around the track.

Reader “Jason Parrish” points out that The Memphis Grizzlies no longer play at the Memphis Pyramid Arena but have now moved to the FedEx Forum which was clearly still being constructed when this photo was taken. You can see that only a quarter or so of the seats have been put in and there are four large white cranes on site (check the shadows!)

Jason also added:

One block North is the famed Beale Street; three blocks north-east you see the Memphis Peaboy Hotel; and finally five blocks north, you’ll see Autozone Park; home of the Memphis Redbirds, AAA farm team of St. Louis Cardinals.
