Baseball stadium, Lynchburg Virginia. Hills are visible over the left field wall featuring a bunch of sponsors. This is a venue that dates back to before WWII, so there's a column in the shot from seats about a section or two over from home plate.
Photo of window art at the old Eastern High School in Lansing, first is a beaker of blue liquid saying "I don't feel stable" and a test tube saying "You're overreacting".

JFK, Abe Lincoln, and George Washington on a restaurant mural. Washington is saying "I cannot tell a lie about a Strawn's Pie". Lincoln is holding a slice of pie, JFK is reading a newspaper with the caption "Pie is Good!", and somehow there's an eclipse or something happening in the second level painting over JFK's shoulder.
