Fine, thank you. While reading past posts the other day, it came to me that I hadn’t actually shown you a complete overview of the island. First, I’ll talk about the map at left in depth, and then when I’m done you can watch it all for real in the video below. All right. First, we have the landing strip, which you can see is the long gray stripe that runs at a slant down to the very bottom tip of the island. All of the little squares that lie most of the island’s perimeter are lots, about a dozen of which actually have houses on them, although almost all of the others are purchased. If you’ll look at the top of the farthest left portion, you can see a lot that looks much larger than the others. That is Ocean Rise, which is the portion still owned by the purchaser of the island in 1995: Henry Mensen. Do you see the two litle black shapes ringed by lots on the far right side? In between them lies the Colonel (pronounced “kernel” like a corn kernel) Brown ruins where you can still find pieces of pottery. Also, about halfway down the runway and a little to the right lies the ELC, just in front of the cove area. Well, now that I think you’ve heard it all, you can see the movie below!
