This new series is a throwback to the game, “Where in the World is Carmen San Diego?” I will give a brief description of a place, including its latitude and longitude and several “interesting” facts about the location. I will also try to include a picture or two from my visit to the place. You, the reader, can then hazard a guess to answer the question posed in the game.

I will reveal the correct location on the following day. Hopefully, this type of post will encourage interaction and perhaps stimulate comments. Good Luck!

The answer to yesterday’s place (#196) is Meteor Crater, near Winslow, Arizona, USA

Where in the World is Gary?  #197

This place is known for its painted houses and the manufacture of violins.

The most significant town landmark is the Church of Saints Peter and Paul, which, like many of the other buildings has elaborate paintings on its exterior walls.
