Thanks for the info. It's a pity about how the location has been "ruined." We have much the same thing here in people bulldozing the desert to build houses, then not doing anything. Sometimes I think there should be a law...but we have far too many of them already!

I am kind of happy about the developer went belly up. Over time Mother Nature will reclaim her land.

I really like these. I'm curious about the house beside the little waterfall. Is it perhaps an old mill that has been turned into a residence?

There used to be a paper mill that is long gone. I photographed it before it was torn down. The town had grand plans for housing 2 long term hotels, and retail stores. They built one 40 or 50 unit apartment building. Before the developer went belly up. Trees and bushes were cut down in anticipation of building. The place is a mess as far as I’m concerned. The river is still there but I think it has effected flooding in some areas. Because of cutting down much of the vegetation.
That house is one of the older houses in town. Not sure if it had anything to do with the mill’s owner.

Water Tower

The water tower is more clearly the subject in #2. In #1 it looks like it could have been an accidental inclusion.

I see what you’re saying. But I wanted the complete sun in the first shot. I guess if I was 30 minutes earlier I could have gotten both in and the tower would have been more prominent.
