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 (#294) is Granada, Spain 

Where in the World is Gary?   #295

Latitude — 42° 36′ North

Longitude — 70° 39′ West

Samuel Champlain founded this place in 1605. Fishing has always been a major enterprise here, as evidenced by the memorial below.

The Wreck of the Hesperus occurred nearby.
