Just a quick look at where I've been and where I'm going. Here's the Sim version of Dennis Township. ( click on the pictures for a larger view) 24,267 is a bit higher than the real population, but we all know Sims like to pack into thier dwellings like college students on Spring Break. The amount of jobs is also higher, so I guess it's a wash. Here's the real- life satellite pics I've been working from during this re-creation - It may look llike I'm missing a road or two , but in actuality they are the...

Hello again. Well, we weathered the storm here fairly well. Fortunately , Hurricane Irene weakened to a category 1 and passed offshore of Cape May County, making landfall just north of Atlantic City,(25 miles northeast of the region) rather than going up Delaware Bay as expected. Add that to the fact that the storm passed while the tide was falling, sparing the region from the catastrophic flooding. There was some flooding , trees downed, and power is still out to about a quarter of the county,(mostly on...

In case you may have missed the Five Mile Beach Island post (page 7), it's a good time to go back and give it a look. While I have your attention, I'd like some ideas on few things that I've been mulling over in regard to development of this journal, once terraforming is complete. The region has 80,000 year-round...

Wow, so many replies to the Stone Harbor update! I really do appreciate the feedback. Rather than take up space in the next update, which should be ready later in the weekend, I'll answer them here. While ya read, You can listen to "On the Way to Cape May". Written in 1961 by Buddy Nugent, the tune circulated from one band to another around Cape May County in the second half of the 20th Century. It became regionally popular when Al Alberts recorded it and increased its broadcast exposure on radio and TV....
