Yeah I suck at riddles. I didn't even blur out the phone number on the fence. Didn't notice it.

Bates Motel, located in Aldergrove. I guess they board it up in between season shootings. Here it is during filming:

I started watching that show until the kitchen table part and then I was like, no.

So I guess no vacancy. Better luck next time.

Exactly how I feel about it. Watched the pilot and thought.."what a stupid show". Then watched ep 2 and thought..."meh, maybe it's not bad".
And every episode after that I kept going back and forth whether I liked it or not. I like the character of the older half brother to Norman. He's pretty funny. Certainly keeps you guessing where they're going with the show. Don't know how long they'll follow Norman in the timeline. Right up until his Mother dies, maybe??

The "town" scenes are kinda cool, as they're filmed right in Horseshoe Bay. I practically grew up there with my Dad working on the Ferries out of that terminal.

Zoom in to the left side of the front door. It looks like something standing there.

The original Bates Motel is in Universal Studios Hollywood.

This Bates Motel is from the TV series that airs on A&E.
