I am posting as a Sunday Slider.

Pine tree's planted by the CCC. Below is a copy and paste.

"The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) was a public work relief program that operated from 1933 to 1942 in the United States for unemployed, unmarried men from relief families as part of the New Deal. Originally for young men ages 18–23, it was eventually expanded to young men ages 17–28. "We have several tree stands here that they planted.

Wide look at the Highway Concourse & Retaining Wall (now affectionately known as the "Castle") at Gooseberry Falls State Park.

 

The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) built this, and other major and minor park features in the 1930's as part of the New Deal that was designed to get men back to work during the Great Depression.

 

Gooseberry Falls State Park is located in Castle Danger, north of Two Harbors, Minnesota on Scenic Highway 61.

This is in Lacey-Keosaqua State Park where we spent a pleasant afternoon yesterday walking the wooded trails. This is the second oldest state park in Iowa and in the 1930's the Civilian Conservation Corps built a number of stone structures here including this bridge.

Taken about 1½ months ago in Lacey Keosaqua State Park, one of Iowa's oldest parks. A close look will show the bridge has been reinforced at some point in its history.

 

Been off for a while visiting family and dodging snowstorms. Will try to get caught up viewing and commenting.

A close up image of the exterior siding on a cabin built by the Civil Conservation Corps (CCC) circa 1935. Saw marks are visible on the wood which was cut and milled on site. The cabins are now part of Raccoon State Park and some are still in use today.

Hey all of you!

 

After Vignweek, the CCC arrived! As I think there are some lovely categories, I wanted to build an entry in some of them.

 

So I start off with the Desert Bandits category as I really like that category!

 

So here it is, The Fallen Temple. The bas of the temple is tilted in two directions: Leaning forward and to the right.

 

I hope you like this build and be ready for some more entries over the next two months!

Me: Are you spying on the neighbors again?

Quinne: Yea! I'm trying out these new high tech binoculars I bought.

Me: What's in your backpack?

Quinne: Spying supplies.

Me: What are spying supplies?

Quinne: Shhhhh, I'm busy and you're loud!

Hey all!

 

At first I want to wish you all the best for 2018!

 

Here's my 5th entry in the CCC, category fantasy fortress!

As I see myself as a fantasy-castle builder, I just couldnt resist getting an entry in for this category.

 

I went for quite a new concept(or at least, I havent seen this done before), and I think it turned out pretty good...

I didnt make any story or background for this build, as I want this fantasy fortress be open to your own imagination...

 

Thanks a lot for looking, and come back tomorrow for better photo's of my 6th and final entry...

Orcs are gathering their forces in the Shadow mountains for the final strike. The last war between the darkness and the light is coming...

 

My first entry into the Collosal Castle Contest. Category: Castle vignette.

It's one of two 8x8 vigs I will post this year. There will be a bigger build as well. ;)

 

Also, I'm having trouble with submitting my entry on official CCC page, is there any different way to do it?

The CCC had a work camp here and their historic handiwork can be seen throughout the park.

 

Gooseberry Falls State Park is located in Castle Danger, north of Two Harbors, Minnesota. It is one of Minnesota's most popular state parks.

  

Voila, and here it is! My masterpiece of the year! An entry in the Haunted Inn Category of the Classic Castle Contest.

Approximately a month of building time and several different versions (I scrapped an entire landscape).

You will doubtless see this build in some of the various RPGs I am a part of, and it will also be posted on my Facebook (Please go check me out there!).

The street was a last minute addition due to much helpful advice which I conveniently ignored for several weeks. C&C appreciated!
