Whoopie ! It's Tuesday -- welcome to Show Your World !
That's the Fairfax Theater -- still surviving as get-in-line movie theater in these days of rent-um or download-um...
Fairfax, the Town, isn't very big -- but it's loaded with bars (as I mentioned the day before yesterday), cool places to snag a cup of exotic coffee, hip botiques with hip names like Culture Shock, and a store that sells everything made out of hemp. There is a manufacturer of tofu, and a health-food store that beats-the-pants-off of Safeway... There's more than enough places to find a used book, or surfboard, or frock from the forties for you and your baby...
Let me narrow it down a bit. This is a map of where I live...

Great post. I appreciate the map. Thank you :-)
Loaded with bars, lol ! Hic !
I'm glad you clarified the geography - there's a Fairfax in Virginia that I know well, but the description didn't quite fit. :) Thanks for sharing another Fairfax! Do you think 20 years from now kids will believe us when we tell them we used to GO to the movies?
Don: Looks like a neat area of the country to visit.
SUPER ORIGINAL POST!!!
Gotta wonder if those theaters will go the way of drive-ins anytime soon... great shot!
Interesting - looks completely unreal - like a drawing... Pretty neat!
Cheers, Klaus
When I first looked at the map I found Inverness - which I have visited in - Scotland?
Then I looked again. Original!
Hard to believe a theater like that still survives. I'll bet it is way more interesting inside than most.
Sounds like a very interesting place to visit... specially when one is thirsty.... *giggles*
I love old movie theatres.
Love your town tucked into the shadow of Mt. Tam. Its like time has come to a standstill.
A very orginal post. Well done.
Sounds like a nice place to me. I love going to the movies.
A great original post and love the map
Never would have known about your town without this! Glad to know small town America still exists....even a small town that makes tofu. Try to find that in the Midwest!
Thanks for your visit...know our paths have crossed before - hope they continue to!
Fairfax looks so graphical and funny. A remnant from another age. Now I get this blog, that you have today´s photo as a banner a day before. It took a while, slow as I am.
Don..you said that you have a friend who lives in downtown Buffalo. My husband and I are both retired city of Buffalo teachers.
I love movie theaters.
I love movies but I couldn't afford going to all the movies I want to see, and besides they don't stay that long in the theaters now.
I wonder if the Petaluma drive-in is still in business (it was on the right side of 101 going North)?
