City Under Construction ( Part 1 )

Well, I Have officially started my second hour long project, Small Town USA, which has magically turned into five hours. Poof...

Not that much energy today, so i decided to make this a exiting two-part blog for two reasons:
1. Why'd I throw my clock out the window? Wanted to see time fly.
2. Being me at 9:45.. I Unwittingly pressed the X in my window instead of the minimize. I Didn't Save...

But fortunately, i got one picture to show my progress of Small Town, USA:
farm4.static.flickr.com/3401/3658266821_a33a4fd623_b.jpgIt Was Something like this... Only with about twice the roads, and twice the houses, and vegetation.

Also Unfortunately, I'm really not feeling good, and I'm tired. I'll keep working tomorrow.

A little Suggestion for beta 4: AUTOMATIC SAVING AT EXIT. Especially in this situation, I would feel a WHOLE lot better. Next Blog... Whenever.

Small Town USA Is under construction... Coming soon...
