More Map Coolness and a Guessing Game
Have you checked out Wikimapia yet?
I found it this morning and spent 20 minutes adding the places from my childhood. And, what a treat, the pictures are several years old, so I was able to find this:
This is the place where my darling husband proposed to me. It's a Costco and a Home Depot now. Anyone wanna guess what it was? (hint: the left side is already being demolished, the right side is still intact...) Anyone who ACTUALLY knows the answer (BN, SS, etc.) isn't allowed to play!

Looks like a four-screen drive-in movieplex.

I'm with McGehee and Beth C...the screens are gone, but the four grassy areas are where the cars parked?

Darn you. Darn you all to heck!
What a time sink. And I've only just begun to label Middleboro, Halifax, and other stuff in the area. At least I noticed some dork had no idea what the famous Powder Point Bridge was called, had labeled it "really long wooden bridge," and I was able to correct it.

It is indeed a Drive In. Not grass, but gravelly, as on the right side of the picture.
Good guesses, all.

Okay now I see it. I didn't know that's where he proposed, but it holds fond memories for Warne rand I too.
