Wednesday's answer: Yesterday we put up tough one or at least I thought it was. A few of you seemed to be able to work throught it. 
First, Mark (I know Fairfield like the back of my hand) Beyerly put up his mocking, clue laden answer which included all of the pieces to the answer without actually putting up the answer. If this were an episode of Batman, he would be The Riddler.
There also seemed to be some judgement about our use of the museum rather than a small business. I will remind you Mr. Smarty pants, that we are also using landmarks, public service, religious institutions and other Fairfield related spots along the way. If you see something in every or most towns, i.e. Stop & Shop, CVS, Kohls, etc... We won't use them since they don't really define us as a town, they are big box strores that aren't really as much a part of our community as they are a national convenience and as much as we use them, this is about our roots.
As I am writing my very witty and well thought out response to him, Mark (A day late) Beyerly puts up his official answer and now it is defined. "Yes my guess - although not 100% - is the Fairfield Museum and History Center, 370 Beach Road". Bah! foiled again!

On we go... Rachel Marie guessed - Cinzanos? It is a good guess but not this time Rachel, lets see if you get todays. Thanks for jumping in!

Chefmichaelatyourservice got in with a more defined answer on this one "I think that's a map of Fairfield with Long Island Sound on the bottom. Wild guess..... Fairfield History Museum on Beach Rd." Nicely done chef.
 
Janice Balint Monteleone "shared" the post and had a friend, Cindy Carley Barker, guess on her wall. She put up... "Fairfield Museum". Good job Cindy, and thanks to Jan for pointing it out.
 
So, what I thought was going to be next to impossible was answered by a good number of people. There were also a handful that "liked" the post.
 
Today we have a fun one. It is much more a landmark?, I think that is a fair way to describe it (Mark might disagree), Lets see how many responses we can get for this one!
