Heading Diagonal 02

Malvern, AL with variant name of Eagan near Light and Geneva-Houston co border, which is also part of GNIRPS (neighbor’s house, which just sold again this month). Circular city limits on topo map (Malvern as well).

Eagan, TN just examined is very near Campbell Co line with Jacksboro for seat. Conj. of Jack and Campbell here is another personal GNIRPs entry (former music director of my childhood church). You can see Eagan and Pruden in nw corner of below map of Campbell Co.

Third and last Eagan pp in Dakota Co MN, by far the largest of the 3 and in Minn./St. Paul metro area.

Nearby Eagan MN is Nichols. Nicholas David of The Voice fame born in Eagan, MN, and nicknamed St. Nick on the tv show.

Many Benningtons LINK, and I came up with it for C1617W just as a plain name to attach humor (like Farmington as well). But Bennington Edwards Co IL still may be pertinent. It has to do with neighbors growing up on *both* sides, including Edwards Co, Grayville in southern part, Samsville, Black, Browns (neighbors directly west of my neighbors), Golden Gate (another color like gray, brown, black), and Bone Gap and Blood also may be related (like blood and bones, and blood relative). Sam’s house sold this month just like Geneva’s. Black in both Edwards Co IL and Geneva Co AL with Malvern/Eagan.

http://cityofgrayville.com/new/history/

Grayville was one of the early settlements, located at the mouth of Bonpas Creek and the (Big) Wabash River, and settled by the Gray family around 1810. Bonpas is a French word meaning “good bay” and early French keel boatmen tied their boats at the mouth of Bonpas Creek in the spring to escape high water or floating ice. Bonpas was once considered navigable, and boats went north as far as east of West Salem, Pinhook and Bennington.

Back to Sansara continent’s Snowlands…

http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Snowlands_Subcontinent

Fellow explorer Simple Wunderlich, who I befriended several years back (see his pictures also in center of Collagesity’s Kidd Tower), has created a series on Snowlands here:

https://simplewunderlich.wordpress.com/?s=snowlands


Mtn. from Simple’s series that no longer exists, pictured across stilll extant Cortina forest.


Another Simple photo showing a more interesting build in Loon — haven’t checked to see if it is still there.


Another building, no longer in Snowlands, snapped by Simple, formerly of the Loveland sim I believe.

Explorer Jayaram Dahlia (who I don’t know) has also created a series on Sansara’s Snowlands, claiming to have explored it thoroughly in all directions…

http://dahliajayaram.blogspot.com/2014/05/snowlands-region-points-of-interest.html

… enough to make this map of personalized regions.

Purden and Eagan are locations on the *diagonal* boundary she’s set up between her Central and South Central regions.

Good closer there.

Purden sim, caddycorner to Eagan in sw direction, is on same latitude as Egan, then.

3 Eagans pp in GNIRPS, 1st I checked near Pruden. No Purdens, and only 1 Pruden (anagram). Pruden on KY-TN line, like Static mentioned in both C1516W and C1617W, as I was just reading and noting earlier tonight. And Pruden is on the Eagan topo map.

Karoz line:

“I’ve got to get myself back home,” he thought. “I’m in a state!”

“Karoz?” Baker Blinker offered. “You okay?”

“Tennessee or Kentucky,” he blurted, and then fell off the bar stool.

Pruden is likewise either in Tennessee or Kentucky, depending on which direction you’re coming from.

Like Muff-Bermingham, Pruden is sometimes called the hyphenated Pruden-Fonde.

MORE AFTERWARDS…00

snapshot8750_005

… Old Mabel finds out more about Roostre in returning to the Blue Feather Table Room. A *lot* more. She didn’t uncover the crucial Q109-R110 link, which Robot Steve would tell her about later on in a dream. But she, for instance, learned the origin of the name Muff-Bermingham. She thought back to the opening in Corsica that allowed Snowmanster to escape a firey death at the hands of Jerome T. Newton. It was all starting to add up. To something.

EVEN MORE AFTERWARDS…

… “ARE YOU HAPPY?” Steve boomed down at her, still holding the poor clockwork ballerina in his metal claw. “I AM.”

Le Martian

plymouth

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Le_Mars,_Iowa

Le Mars was platted in 1869, but no lots were sold until the Chicago and North Western Transportation Company arrived in 1879. According to town legend, CNW investor John I. Blair and a group of women arrived at the town, which was then called St. Paul Junction. Blair asked the women to name the town, and they submitted an acronym based upon their first names’ initials: Lucy Underhill, Elizabeth Parson, Mary Weare, Anna Blair, Rebecca Smith and Sarah Reynolds.[5]

Thoughts: Chesterton Etc. 02

lions_tigerville

“… reversed in Louisiana, with Lions the plural instead of Tigers. Instead it’s Tigerville, singular. In Chesterton yesterday there were 2 tigers on opposite sides of Wireway 61 from a lion. But at any rate, Wireway 61 resonates with Highway 61 which is, in turn, the Mighty Mississippi River itself.”

LOOK UP: How Miss. divides Lion and Tiger from each other, formerly joined at the hip. This separation also spells end of Oz rulership. Real Life begins. Birth.

Breaking of First Hoop in Chesterton at some point in the moving in of these wireways also parallels this end and new beginning.

U.S. Route 61:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U.S._Route_61

U.S. Route 49:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U.S._Route_49

At Jackson, U.S. Highway 49 shares an alignment with segments of Interstates 20 and 220 before turning northwest to Yazoo City. A split in the highway, rare in the U.S. system, begins here, with both routes heading into the Mississippi Delta, U.S. 49W serving the towns of Belzoni and Indianola, where it junctions U.S. Route 82 and its four-lane segment ends, while two-laned 49E serves Tchula before encountering U.S. 82 at Greenwood. Both routes continue north from 82 and are linked again at Tutwiler, Mississippi. Continuing northwest, the highway passes through an interchange with U.S. Route 61 as it enters Clarksdale. It is at Clarksdale that Highway 49 encounters “The Crossroads”, the legendary junction with State Street (an old alignment of U.S. 61) where the great blues musician Robert Johnson is reputed to have sold his soul to the devil.[6]

From Clarksdale, Highway 49 continues north toward its crossing of the Mississippi River, where it enters Arkansas near the town of Helena.

NOTE: Robert Johnson has come up in 2 separate ways recently in this blog. First, the Crossroads legend focusing on the 49-61 junction in Clarksdale has resurfaced through the crossed wireways of Chesterton, which have been identified with the 2 highways. Second, in Second Life, Quito has surfaced as a keyword in BoB (Birth of Bogato) LINK, and the Mississippi town of the same name (origin: unknown) was found to be one of 3 sites in Leflore County where Robert Johnson of 49×61 fame was reportedly buried in an unmarked grave.

“Cool-i-o daddy. Glad you like it.”

BBloch:

I think it will be a great creation. More long term than Collagesity Proper.

Chester:

Right-o. Carrcassonnee is here. Can you dig it?

BBloch:

Yes, I can Chester. (noting Carrcassonnee’s open eye): Hi Carrcassonnee.

Carr.:

Hello Baker. Glad Carrcassonnee can keep you company while I was away.

BBloch:

You mean Chester.

Carr. (blushing?):

Yes. Do you wish to talk further about Chesterton? Tell me what you want to speak with tonight. Tomorrow.

BBloch:

Kevin Durant?

Carr.:

Oh, you know. He went with the titles. Like LeBron. Didn’t trust Westbrook. Wanted more a team environment. He’s no different from Shaq, from others in a different age. He’ll be fine. But Oklahoma City will suffer.

BBloch:

That’s a shame.

Carr.:

Westbrook will obviously leave now. Westbrook was always leaving, probably for L.A.

BBloch:

Golden State seems unbeatable[ now].

Carr.:

They are. But it will be fun to root for the opposite team. Especially LeBron’s team. Good he slipped another championship in before this juggernaut formed.

BBloch:

Yes. (pause) So what of Chesterton?

Carr.:

Is Oz in the middle still?

BBloch:

Um…

Carr.:

Find Oz.

BoB research

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quito,_Mississippi

Quito is an unincorporated community located in Leflore County, Mississippi. Quito is approximately 6 miles (9.7 km) north of Morgan City and 3 miles (4.8 km) south of Itta Bena along Mississippi Highway 7.

It is part of the Greenwood, Mississippi micropolitan area.

The cemetery of Payne Chapel in Quito is one of three locations held to be the burial place of blues musician Robert Johnson.

quito01

Quito *looks* like it was named for proximate Mosquito Lake but maybe not. Maybe it is named for the South American capital of Ecuador. The wikipedia article on the village doesn’t provide an answer. We do learn from the article that Alexandria is a variant name of this particular Quito, with the citation as James F. Brieger’s “Hometown Mississippi” published in 1980.

The 3 listed burial sites of legendary bluesman Robert Johnson, all in the same county of LeFlore:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Johnson#Gravesite

The exact location of his grave is officially unknown; three different markers have been erected at possible sites in church cemeteries burial outside Greenwood.

Research in the 1980s and 1990s strongly suggests Johnson was buried in the graveyard of the Mount Zion Missionary Baptist Church near Morgan City, Mississippi, not far from Greenwood, in an unmarked grave. A one-ton cenotaph in the shape of an obelisk, listing all of Johnson’s song titles, with a central inscription by Peter Guralnick, was placed at this location in 1990, paid for by Columbia Records and numerous smaller contributions made through the Mt. Zion Memorial Fund.
In 1990, a small marker with the epitaph “Resting in the Blues” was placed in the cemetery of Payne Chapel near Quito, Mississippi, by an Atlanta rock group named the Tombstones, after they saw a photograph in Living Blues magazine of an unmarked spot alleged by one of Johnson’s ex-girlfriends to be Johnson’s burial site.[45]
More recent research by Stephen LaVere (including statements from Rosie Eskridge, the wife of the supposed gravedigger) indicates that the actual grave site is under a big pecan tree in the cemetery of the Little Zion Church, north of Greenwood along Money Road. Through Stephen LaVere, Sony Music has placed a marker at this site, which bears LaVere’s name as well as Johnson’s.

An interviewee in the documentary The Search for Robert Johnson (1991) suggests that owing to poverty and lack of transportation Johnson is most likely to have been buried in a pauper’s grave (or “potter’s field”) very near where he died.

Quito, MS and Quito, TN are both near an Egypt.

Bigfoot Early June 01

A possible significant find in Bigfoot along the road almost encircling the Bigfeet Swamp: the head of a wooden golf club. Remembering that the original object found in Bigfoot Center — and which the very successful toy happening from last fall was built around — was a golfing iron. Is Bigfoot telling me now that it is being upgraded from an iron (middle game) to a wood (long game)?? I’ve passed this spot many times and not seen the wood head until this day. I definitely think the find has meaning. Bigfoot *is* being upgraded.

The wood head was also found at almost the exact opposite side of Bigfeet Swamp from Bigfoot proper and its own golf club. The two clubs oppose each other in some fashion. And I also think the UMAPS version of Georgia (state) is being inferred, with its own iron and wood golfing references. Bigfoot is also clearly marked in UMAPS in Texas, via the only US Bigfoot. And my Bigfoot also has close ties to Iron County, Missouri.

IMG_1978smaller

The wood head lies near the top of this somewhat mysterious set of apparently now forgotten and unused “stairs” leading up to Bigfeet Swamp from Leola Creek.

IMG_1981smallest

Orange-y (Chester”? Cheetah?) Brook or Stream to the north of Bigfeet Swamp, once more. As I’ve found out recently, you can see the head of this stream from Bigfoot Center.

IMG_1992smaller

Another strange spring outlet leading down from the Plateau of Raw Art, just like the Bigfoot stream but further north and not emptying into a pool/swamp this time. Although Orange-y Stream is nearby, it also doesn’t empty directly into it. Actually, there’s been little flow of water within this culvert when I’ve visited. It’s difficult to see (and take photos of) during summer months because of all the surrounding brush.

Looking up through an avenue of green from the culvert toward the Plateau of Raw Art.

There are a good number of these kind of rocks around the culvert.

Bigfoot 05/10/16

I’ve been calling the more clear place on Second Road Secondary for now, but I may change the name to Chester, partially after orangey Chester the Cheetah, mascot for world famous, multi-billion dollar corporation Cheetos, most noted for their cheese puffs. My favorite snack food of all time (just kidd’n). Anyway, these 3 lined up, orange-ish mushrooms reminded me of the kind of similarly colored 3 Chesters now in Newtown Hollow Square, Collagesity.

IMG_1757smaller

Chester residence?

IMG_1758smaller

IMG_1760smaller

There are also some interesting “native” rocks in the immediate area. I may make a detailed map of all this soon enough. I’ll probably return to Bigfoot this weekend.

IMG_1761smaller

When I googled “Cheetahs” + “high school” in an image search, the below came up near the top of the list. Lacrosse again, resonant with the same sport ball in the Chester region. Kind of synchy, no?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plainfield,_Illinois

Plainfield is identified as the oldest community in Will County because the earliest settlement of Walkers’ Grove was established on the banks of the DuPage River by 1828. However, the actual Village of Plainfield was platted immediately north of Walkers’ Grove in 1834 by Chester Ingersoll. The separate community of East Plainfield was platted in June 1836 by James Mathers who began selling lots in July 1836.

And Chester there again (Plainfield’s founder/platterer). Plainfield is also pretty near Joliet and Romeo(ville), in a *Will* County. It’s also said to be, per wikipedia, the oldest community in this county.
