Good attitude. If you're gonna think big (and that is thinking big!), you'd best take little steps. BTW, if you haven't been there in awhile, you...
I know at least a couple of other sites that feature chat, and after looking in on them a few times, I really can't see where there's anything to...
Three of my favorites (not in any order): http://www.rr-fallenflags.org/sp/sp-s1500afm.jpg http://www.rr-fallenflags.org/sp/sp-s2358c.jpg...
The furniture store, updated with a roof sign and a second sign at the side for the Ballard Arms apartments, which occupy the top three stories...

Another test photo to check placement before the street and sidewalks, etc., go in. (Deadline? who said anything about a deadline?)
Two more structures from the a-building City of Montevista, CA, circa 1950. Still testing placement before finalizing any of the details . . .
Very much an in-progress photo, as the City of Montevista welcomes its newest gas station, circa 1950.
Well . . . it's certainly not subtle, whatever else you care to say about it. Regards, Paul
