How fussy are you?

I really enjoy detailing my scenery and buildings. I try to include references to my family, town, and things I hold dear. I also like the uncommon and controversial. <br /> <br />My industries includes a Campbell Soup plant ( formerly Geo. Roberts Printing Co.) with a Soup Can water tower on the roof. Another factory is named after the company my brother manages in Missouri and there's the Gator Ceiling Fan Co. (with "The Best Fan is a Gator Fan" billboard on the roof). <br /> <br />Modeling Florida necessitates a "Swamp" complete with cattails, lily pads, cypress trees, a discarded tire and "Albert" the Gator crawling out of the water and an orange grove to supply the local Tropicana company. <br /> <br />Dogwood PNC (Politically Not Correct) Park in town includes a Confederate War Memorial and an interracial couple. Across the street on the hillside are 3 wooden crosses. I've also included a "dead skunk in the middle of the road stinking to high heaven". And of course what would a rural Florida highway be without the FHP hiding behind a billboard. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
