Just Another Day
It has been 50 years since the first men and women began to build their homes in the Belfast Valley.
Today also marks the 10 year anniversary of the death of the man who had originally been stranded on the shores of the Belfast Lake.
But to the Congressmen and congresswomen who sit on capital hill it is just another day.
Just Another Day
The sudden growth that had take place after the Amity reservoir had been polluted had come to a screeching halt.
Luckily for the residents of New Amity And Roderick, The Government had decided it would be beneficial to the small towns to complete the
ambitious projects the towns had so hastily begun.
Welcome back to Roderick.
The Roderick Rail line has finally been completed.
Freight can now more easily leave the city without having to worry about the rising price of gasoline for trucks.
The line currently services the town of Roderick and the town of Jessingburg.
To the north you can see the Roderick Logging Company.
It only employs a few workers and therefore only a small amount of Forest has been able to be cut down.
Sadly....Growth in this area no longer exists.....
The rail line also seems to have been a bust.
You can clearly see the empty tracks.
The line was originally built to service the demand the Government thought the region would be getting.
However they way overestimated and spent more than 3 times on the rail than was actually needed to keep up with demand.
Moving on to New Amity:
While things In Roderick Aren't going so smoothly New Amity is still prospering.
The soil here is unbelievably rich in minerals and food exports have become the towns #1 source of income.
However as you can see in the bottom of the picture small marshes impended larger boat travel.
Thats where the Government stepped in.
A small canal was dug through the marshes allowing boats to sail through.
With easier access to the rest of lake, as well as the rest of the country, larger farming operations are seeing the value of this land.
The government is very please with New Amity, However, not so much with Roderick.
They are currently out of ideas of how to attract more residents to the town.
The Congressmen do have one idea tho. They will leave it up to the readers of this journal to decide on how to attract people to Roderick.
The coal mine has given them nearly limitless amounts of money to try and create what you envision for the future of Roderick.
Leave you're ideas in the comments and the Congressmen will decide on the best....or don't do anything at all...they should be able to figure something out.
