Spring Flooding

This picture was taken from our Dino-opolis News Chopper. Ahhhhh - you thought this was ancient times? Think again. These are modern times dinos. We have airplanes, cars, helicopters, boats, and nuclear weapons! But I'm not going to tell you Dino-opolis' history, because I'm here to tell you the news.

As you can see, the snow has long since melted, but has left large amounts of water in the lake... larger amounts than we want. It would've flooded Dino-opolis if we hadn't let it flood into the marketplace, which is fine now.

The picture below was taken from a place normally 10 dino-feet above Dino-opolis lake level. The photographer was standing on the edge of the flooded lake, though it appears to be taken from a boat.


You can see across the lake to a house that is nearly flooded. To the right you see a boat almost level with the edge of another concrete block - which just happens to be Pterodactyl Wyatt's house... mine!

New House/Hospital on the River

Carnotaurus Gunnar has joined with two other dino friends to create a mansion, which is also the hospital of Dino-opolis.

Carnotaurs Gunnar says, "I am the doctor and the boss of the hospital. My house, which is also the hospital, is built right over the river. Plus there is the P.B. - the pet barge. That's where I keep all my pets, and they like to swim. That's why we built right over the river. We also did it for a one-of-a-kind house!"

You can see the house in this photo, graciously provided by Pterodactyl Wyatt. As you can see on the very left, there is the P.B. You can see a Gumdrop Pet on the barge.

The nice thing about my house is that if we hear there has been a robbery we can put a barricade on the bridge into Delta City. This makes it harder for the crooks to get away. Especially if they steal a car, unless they want to cross enemy lines. My house is right by Delta City, which is downriver from Dino-opolis.

* New land has been discovered!

This new land, to the east of Dino-opolis, over the Green Mountains, has been discovered by Pterodactyl Wyatt and Allosaurus Tate. We hope to send a clean-up crew to begin tidying the area for future colonization.

Wyatt says, "This may not be a permanent settlement, but it could be a prime location for summer homes."


* New House on the River

A group of dinos, combined their houses to form one huge mansion, suspended over the river near Delta City. Watch for a future post by Gunnar for more details and information.

Dino-ville update

Jan built a fantastic fort outside one of his farmhouses. He then allied with Per to form a great force of 30 well trained soldiers.

Rafe and Luke lay across the valley from his farmhouse and fort. Rafe and Luke quickly dug a trench when they saw J & P's great force aiming their rifles at them. They stationed troops inside and posted more around the house.

Suddenly Jan and Per's troops let out a hail of bullets at Luke and Rafe's troops. Startled, they shot back, but to no avail; J & P's troops were in a fort.

A commander quickly issued a charge to L & R. They were mowed down but took refuge behiud a fence but were blown to bits. Sadly, Luke's men took great casualties from snipers.

The War of the Farms had begun!
