Firehawke Posted June 29, 2017 Posted June 29, 2017 I'm so sorry to hear that you are dealing with vestibular migraines...you are in my prayers!!! Glad that you've felt well enough to build...and the remodel looks fantastic! You take care!
pukkie Posted January 28, 2018 Posted January 28, 2018 I second that Your zoo looks loveloy. Take good care of yourself Fountain and it's wonderful you at least got to play ZooTycoon again
fountain Posted July 20, 2018 Author Posted July 20, 2018 I found some screenshots from this zoo that I do not recall posting last year. This is the opposite end of the entrance on the map beyond the animal feed storage. Playground & picnic area behind warehouses converted town houses & hotel to condo conversion. Single family homes with quilts airing outside & tended gardens. The back-most street is one way Recycling & composting for the nearby orchard & greenhouses. A weighing platform & sorted metal scrap in background. 2
fountain Posted July 20, 2018 Author Posted July 20, 2018 This is across the street from the fruit & veg market. Parking for toy factory which expanded its facility. Another small manufacturer has built an expansion joining the rear 3-storey. Woo-hoo! The zoo has been for local economy! Now this community has bus service, too, & a mix of jobs within walking distance. Back of the library is the left corner. Next pix is office buildings & bank. Pink is florist & another shop & yellow is deli-grocery. 3rd one is reverse view. -- Oh & I no longer have this zoo because it I had problems saving or a b-a-d migraine day. Which Moose is cruising past the library? Recycling bins for the office buildings & bank. Weekend picnicking behind apt bldgs & a small (Scottish) feast laid out on a table. An alley runs behind the apts. Upper right corner is just beyond the yellow gro, condo, converted old blgs for affordable housing. More condos & the pitched dark mustard roof is an small medical clinic. I'm glad the blue & green jeep is not blocking the fire hydrant. Fenced hard surfaces between apt bldgs are good for hopscotch, 4-square, keep small children. Lower left is more offices space. Turn around... And back again seeing a small play ground, a running area beyond. This is the opposite end of the alley beside the Toy Store. More to come.... 1
fountain Posted July 21, 2018 Author Posted July 21, 2018 Composting piles from recycling area is banked with soils trees & beehives for public fruit trees along the walkway ... Blueberries, strawberries, blackberries, cherries grown for the local stand down the street... Last pix. 1
(Trustee)ZooGrammy Posted July 21, 2018 Posted July 21, 2018 This was great! You'd make a good city planner. Had to get a screen for each. I keep files of all different types of zoo designs. 1 1

caddienoah Posted July 22, 2018 Posted July 22, 2018 Fountain, Was that a link you posted in the your last post? I clicked on it but nothing happened. You are an amazing young woman...a true survivor! It is a honor to call you friend and a design collaborator!!! I suffer from migraines...I found a med that helps me...I can not even imagine how you do, all you do on a daily basis, you must have an amazing family, that stands with/by you! 1
fountain Posted July 22, 2018 Author Posted July 22, 2018 You have to copy & paste that address. Sometimes it comes as a link other times not. Being a lazy housekeeper, having a dishwasher, W&D plus a clothesline, & a quiet, easy to push battery operated electric mower equals fewer quarrels.
