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 (#374) is Richmond, Virginia, USA
Where in the World is Gary? #375
Latitude — 41° 50′ North
Longitude — 71° 22′ West
The beginning of the Industrial Revolution in America happened here. Samuel Slater opened his mill in 1790.
This place also contained the first successful water-powered cotton mill.
