Narrative:

Aircraft exits runway, right turn onto fox. Tower advises 'contact ground 121.9.' captain is taxiing. First officer contacts ground. Ground replies to 'taxi via oscar to ramp.' captain taxis southeast on oscar per request. First officer is accomplishing after landing checklist and advising company that the flight is on the ground. Captain approachs papa from oscar. First officer notices that runway 22 is being utilized for departures. First officer states that 22 is active. Captain slows aircraft and continues on oscar. Ground controller advises 'left turn, continue on oscar.' note: there was no runway incursion nor did we cross the hold lines of papa-22. Hold lines were faded, nor were there any identing marks or signs indicating runway 22 from oscar-papa. Perhaps some money to buy signs and repaint lines are due. Problems like this can be avoided and should be avoided.
