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 (#348) is Burano, Italy 

Where in the World is Gary?   #349

Latitude — 42° 53′ North

Longitude — 73° 12′ West

This place was the scene of a famous Revolutionary War battle in which the Hessians were defeated. A 300-foot monument commemorates the event.

Ethan Allen was a significant historical figure here..
