When I was a kid, we played with dirt. (Seriously, among other things of course.) RCT games didn't exist yet. No computer games of any sort existed yet. No computers existed yet! When I was in my late teens we played with lawn darts. We sharpened the metal tips so they would stick in the lawn better. It's surprising we survived. I started playing RCT3 (vanilla) shortly after it came out. Then I got RCT1 and RCT2. And then the RCT3 expansions when they came out. (I'm using Platinum now.) I've played all the scenarios from all the RCT games multiple times. I've downloaded a ton of custom scenery, CFRs, and CTRs. I also DLed the CTR Creator and made my own CTRs using other peoples' cars. trains, and tracks. I've downloaded tons of user-made scenarios. I usually modify the user-made scenarios somewhat so that certain rides and scenery are available from the get-go; it's more fun that way. And fun is what it's all about, right? I also have tons (at least 700) music/sound effect files. The RCT3 graphics, while good, aren't all that realistic, given the game restrictions. So I make the game more like real life by enveloping the park in lots and lots of music and sound effects. Favorite thing? Probably just walking through the park as Jonny Watts, taking in all the sights and sounds of the world I created.

Oooh, really nice!

I like the ticket booths! Modern, decorative, and rustic, all at once. Looks like Wanda knew what she was doing with the flamingos. Or maybe she just got lucky. And for the record, I also noticed the watermelon on the shelf. But I gave you the benefit of the doubt, and assumed it was just a plushy pillow, not an actual wedge of melon. ;-)

Somehow, I missed your July 8th post, so I'll comment on it here: I'm having to adjust my brain cells, seeing Snow White outside a house that isn't the Dwarf's Cottage. But then I remind myself that this is a Cast Member in a Disney park, so all's well. If that's a class action lawsuit, can I join? If "Chest of Drawers" was an underwear shop, it would be a perfect companion to the "Wizard of Bras" shop, a real thing in early Disneyland. (Which you probably already knew?) I really like the Arcade facade. I also like that we can see the L.A. city center in the background of some shots. And now, today's post: "Boston Co. Cases & Bags" Now there's a name that just rolls off the tongue... ;-\ I love the arched portico in front of City Hall. And I wouldn't mind living in the upstairs apartment of that yellow townhouse. Wonderfully realistic town! Well, except for the plethora of bakeries, barbershops, dentists, and arcades. Thanks, Wagi.

I love how you placed lanterns on various surfaces for illumination. I suspect that the majority of light is coming from unseen lighting?

Nice image. Apparently the dinosaurs are tame and friendly here. Or maybe they're used for crowd control on very busy days. ;-)

I often add a small drop out of the station, too. The train picks up a little speed, which adds a bit of excitement.

Hmmm, well the highest peak is in Alaska. So I'll say A: AK

Looks like there's gonna be lots of scrambled eggs and omelettes at the park's breakfast buffet.

AND... Most of the Shyguy's World community can now be found here on ParkCrafters!

Not positive, but I think it's B: Kentucky. Eastern U.S., at any rate.

Is this the one you're looking for? ArchbakPOTO.zip

Zimbwowee Village looks like it's gonna have interesting theming and architecture. Poor employees. Does Mr. Wonder give them overtime pay? (I already know the answer.)

I wonder if zoos feed Viagra to some of their animals in real life???............. Surely not? Colonies of zoo flamingos don't seem to have any problem increasing their numbers.

Wow! That first image is the very definition of an action shot!

I love this shot! The long line of peeps really livens up the scene; like it's real life.

Love the twisty, curly fencing (?).

Yep. B: Louisiana. Not sure why they're called parishes. I suppose it has to do with their French heritage?

Haha. The total disinterest of the flamingos reminds me of the "emu" in those commercials. Now I'm wondering if Viagra works on birds. Poor befuddled Scooter... at least his heart was in the right place.

Really nice ride! (But I got all wet...). Usually, with flume rides, you go down the 'big drop' and that's it; back to the station. But here... THERE'S MORE! Pleasantly surprised! All the best to you and your (new) family.

Interesting how the stonework of the 'temple' looks bright, shiny, and new. But at the same time, it's crumbling and falling apart. Those old gods need to get busy and refurbish the place!

Love the tilt of the coaster cars on the bendy parts!

Pretty sure there is a Miami, Ohio. So I'll go with that: B: Ohio Of course, you might be pulling a 'sneaky', and going for the obvious answer. But I feel like living dangerously today!

One has to read the fine print to truly appreciate these images.
