Eden Bay : Smallville (intro)

1. The third and last town where P. R. Crastina stayed, in that golden half-year of her first big residence as a writer, way back then, was Smallville..

2. ...Another part of the amalgamated city of Eden Bay, under the aegis of Mayor Zabnis -- all three generations of them. Please forgive the small pictures : P. R. had only a small, non-digital camera at the time -- beginning writer, almost a student's budget... y' know...

3. It was another pretty, quiet and green town :

6. with only two honest-to-God skyscrapers to its name (and the oldest citizens grumbled a lot about those) :

7.They were all from old Polish farmer's stock, and their parents could still remember the humble, agricultural beginnings of the town. Almost nothing is left of it, only the Adamcyk Farm, north of the Coyla river, which no bridge had yet crossed, at the time.

11. But the river  would have to be bridged, and it was, once the forestry industry came to the region and logging began in earnest, as wood was (and still is) the main resource of that part of the region.

Next : Logging.

I like Smallville -- !

Nice mix of rural and city -- map not too awfully crowded -- VERY nice river work.

I'll have to come back when I've got some time to pull out my magnifying mouse!!

   I always enjoy viewing your CJ entries , they look so peaceful and serene . The waterfall image :thumb: very nice . Those waterways look so nice and clean .

   I wish you could do that to the river here , where I live in RL . It probably looks okay from satellite . But trust me , up close and in person it's rather disgusting the way it is handled today . It's as if "The Clean Water Act" has never existed . 

   What ploppable water are you using , I really like it . Sorry if I've asked before . They say memory is the first thing to go . :???:

raynev : Peg's Tahoe water -- the paint one ; there are also the 1x1, 2X2 and more, which actually have sparkle, but are less flexible ; usually I sow some 1x1 in order to break the monotony but I was so fixated on the river and its banks that I forgot... :-) And yes, I would like to do that to RL rivers -- I play Simcity to compensate for the real world !:-)
