Introduction to Small Towns

I didn't intend to take so long to get my second entry together, but I got lost in the woods. There's a lot of trees around here.

Today I bring a quick update introducing three of the numerous small towns popping up among the hills south of Lake Garda.

Anderson

Anderson is a peaceful residential town situated in a valley between two hill ranges.

The road (Hwy 50) into the east side of town snakes its way up a cliff face along the first hill range. Heading east out of town, highway 50 leads to the budding metropolis of Washington, population 27.

There is no industry in town. Only a few small farms.

No sims were [knowingly] harmed in the capturing of these photos. Only missing, perhaps.

Washington

Washington is a farming town down in the plains closer to the shores of Lake Garda. It is also the location of the first Wawa to be built outside of the United States of America. Wawa is expanding to the nation of Garda because there's no street corners left for them to conquer in the eastern US. This is also the only gas station (and grocery outlet) along Hwy 50 between Anderson and Logan, the next town on our little tour, so they're well on their way to monopolizing another corner of the planet. And they give Mayor free hoagies!

Don't mind the void at the top of the image. It's just a glitch in the Matrix.

Logan

The next town on our list is a little larger. Logan is the current industry and commercial hub of the region. It has great growth potential and attracts residents with it's riverside location. It is likely to become one of the central areas of development in the future.

A closer look at the town's oldest neighborhood:

South Logan, located just to the south of Logan (bet you never would have guessed that), is technically a separate town. But future development will almost certainly merge the two into a city, so it's included in this entry. South Logan is an interesting blend of rural country living with an urban vibe. This area has attracted several town home developments.

That's all for now. Thanks for stopping by! There is much, much more to come in the future.
