How awesome is that...as kids...your own castle to play in...I guess we all have had our trying times as children...they do say if you know no different then that is normal living...

I grew up in several different states, because Dad was in the US Navy.
Two different cities in Virginia, at two different times; Portsmouth, and Virginia Beach.
Two different cities in South Carolina, at two different times, Charleston and Abbeville; the latter also was where I was born.
One city in Texas, Austin; for two years as a teen.
One city in Rhode Island, Portland; as a baby, up to the age of about 8 or 9 months.

So you see, my childhood was one of pulling up roots and replanting in the next city. You might think it would have affected my grades in school but it didn't. When I quit school in the 12th grade, because of an issue I had with people trying to make me what they wanted me to be, I already had the equivalent education of a two year college student. Not only that, I was a well rounded athlete, have participated in several sports, Basketball, Baseball (My best sport), Competitive Diving, and Volleyball. On top of that, I became a pretty good singer, artist, and cook. No hiding under the beds for me and my siblings, though I did hide from the neighborhood bullies, when I could. I also got beaten up a lot when they ganged up on me. One on one, I could hold my own though. I guess a lot of us go through tough times when we are kids.

Well I got my new image to post this time. Had to do part of it in Bryce, and the rest in DAZ Studio. I rendered the biggest file in Bryce, then used it as a backdrop for what I did in DAZ Studio. In that way I was able to preserve the detail, keep the file size small, while making the pixel size big. It worked good this time.

My bad! Blaming it on brain fog! It was actually Providence RI. My only other excuse is "Well? I was just a baby, so I can't remember anything about it." LOL
