Bloomin Mole, Buff Pier, Eggar Rez Zone, Garden Mole, Route 2

It’s been almost three and a half months since I last did a post on mainland infrastructure. I’ve been travelling the length of Route 2; it looks like there will be one more post after this one, to finish this route. I ended my last post at Buff Pier.

I stepped off the pier and onto the road, and snapped the above photo to the left. It shows the paving, sign, safety barrier, lights, and bushes. (This series is about infrastructure and I had to tear myself away from investigating a nearby spacecraft.)

Very soon, I arrived in Eggar.

The Eggar Rez Zone is on the left side of the road, in the direction I’m going. I’m impressed with how most of the current parcel owners have used foliage that complements and blends in with what the Moles have planted so very long ago.

Still in Eggar, there’s a safety rail on the left, and further ahead are stone barriers on the sides.

Stone bridge by Garden Mole.

Eggar is quite a long region on this stretch of road. In Tawny, a Bloomin Crate and a bucket of apples have been left by Bloomin Mole on the right side of the road.

Further on, is this bridge. Shortly after, I entered the Stout region.

There’s interesting infrastructure if you keep straight ahead on the road, but I took a sharp right here, for the purpose of staying on Route 2. There’s a stone bench by Bloomin Mole in this small, roadside park.

A little further on are 1 Li dogwood trees by Eric Linden. Anyone can take a copy. (These are also in the inventory library.)

I walked through Ear and into Sallow. There continued to be a variety of trees along the sides of the road.

To remain on Route 2, I took another right, here in Sallow.

Close by you’ll find the Sallow Picnic Spot Rez Zone. “You can Rez your sandwiches here as long as you eat them within 5 minutes!” There is a bottle by Silent Mole that may be over ten years old.

I kept going straight ahead; the road narrows to one lane.

There are a couple of lone telegraph poles on the left side of the road. I took the above snapshot in Satellite, looking back the way I’d come.

A layby wood bench and metal bin by Garden Mole on the left side of the road.

Very soon I arrived at the Satellite Market Rez Zone where I’m ending this journey for today. We are close to the end of Route 2 but there will be things to photograph at the market.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Route 2 ~ Fillip to Buff Pier

Buff Pier, Fillip, Ginsberg, Heterocera, Route 2, The Atoll

When we left off looking at Route 2 infrastructure here, we were in Fillip. I didn’t seem to cover a lot of road on this trip but there was a lot to photograph. There are builds on both sides of almost the whole length of Route 2 that I traveled; where there is not, there are plenty of trees, bushes, flowers and road signs.

After Fillip, there were one or two steps in Brindle and then I was in Ranunculus. I turned back to snap this photo of the median with alternating street lights by Alberto Linden and palm trees by Eric Linden.

In Seraphim the paving changes and the median ends with a speed bump, foliage and lamps.

In Ginsberg, there’s a Victorian Letter Box set into a retaining wall by Garden Mole. Right now there are numerous, some very large, parcels for sale on the mainland. Unlike in the fairly recent past, there are also many new builds; the roadside in this and other areas I’ve noticed recently are filling in.

Pictured above is a crosswalk in Ginsberg.

In previous posts in this series, I’ve focused on the infrastructure and avoided many of the current buildings in the background but it wasn’t really possible on this trip. Shown above is the Ginsberg Rez Zone.

After a brief walk through Burnott, the paving changes again in Quaker.

Just before the Valerian Rez Zone, there’s a guard rail on the left side of the  road.

The Valerian Rez Zone has the usual bench, trash bin and in addition, a barrel.

Soon I arrived at an intersection with benches and a tree in the middle. The road to the right soon becomes unpaved, leading through some rough terrain among random buildings. I kept going straight ahead on Route 2.

This bridge is in Buff.

Right after the bridge, there’s a retaining wall on the left side of the road.

There is an opening in the retaining wall with steps leading down to Buff Pier.

There are benches on the pier, which stretches out on both sides of the picnic area.

These are plenty of photos so I will continue my travel another day.
