Pretersolaria Institute | Big Heart Dude, THE BOOKMOBILE, Ikron Confectioneries, Wiploc Amphitheatre
While preparing the download post I took a bunch of interior/detail shots, but just showing the exteriors involved so many pics that I left them out. I'll just post them randomly now I guess lol
I also went back and created a Pretersolaria Institute tag, with everything I've posted about the uni since I first started it. So that tag has more pictures, explanations of my inspirations, building process, story-ish stuff, etc.

Crawford Neighborhood
Oak Park Community
San Diego's Oak Park community has a well-loved, but sadly outdated. The library will celebrate its 50th birthday next June! The Oak Park Community Council and the Friends of the Oak Park Library have a long history of supporting the Oak Park Branch Library. In fact, the Oak Park Community Council was created in 1974 directly in response to threats by the City to shut down the library.

Approximately 7,000 people walk through the branch's doors each month. The homework center helps 62 students a week and approximately 1000 people use the computer workstations. Considering there are only 18 seats in the Adult area, 14 total computer workstations, and the homework center measures only 13x18, this branch works very hard for its size. An improved facility would adequately meet the needs of the growing population of Oak Park. In addition, our branch library provides enrichment programs for 8 different schools, including those outside the Oak Park neighborhood: Darnall Elementary, Webster Elementary, Marshall Elementary, Iftin Charter, Mann Middle and Crawford High.

FEBRUARY MYSTERY LOVING: BLOG TOUR - Six Dogs to Sunday
Welcome to
THE PULP AND MYSTERY SHELF February Mystery Loving Event!

Six Dogs ’til Sunday (A Mae December Mystery) by Lia Farrell
About the Book
Six Dogs ’til Sunday (A Mae December Mystery) Cozy Mystery 6th in Series Setting – Tennessee Camel Press Paperback Release (March 1, 2018) Digital Release (February 15, 2018) Paperback: 256 pages ISBN-13: 978-1603812504 Digital ASIN: B077KFFH52
It’s January in Rosedale, Tennessee, and Mae December is preparing for her March wedding to Sheriff Ben Bradley. Mae, who boards dogs for a living, is also busy tending to her pregnant dog and scouting locations for the movie featuring the music of her former fiancé Noah West, who died in a car accident four years earlier. Fortunately, the picturesque old house at the end of Little Chapel Road is for rent.
Just as filming is about to begin, a man is shot on the set, but manages to drive himself to the hospital, where he dies before he can ID his killer. He was a member of the film crew, but also a local, and circumstances point to his being a confidential informant for Ben’s predecessor, Sheriff Trey Cantrell, also the owner of the house turned movie set. At the time of the shooting, the victim had been stealing a large sum of money from a safe on the premises. Whose money is it, and where does it come from?
The Rosedale Sheriff’s Office not only has another murder case on its hands, but one that will dredge up a past long buried. How far will the guilty parties go to protect their secrets?
About the Authors
Lia Farrell is the nom de plume for a mother/daughter duo of writers. Mom Lyn Farquhar and Daughter Lisa Fitzsimmons have been collaborating on the Mae December mystery series for four years. ABOUT LYN Lyn Farquhar taught herself to read before starting school and honed her storytelling abilities by reading to her little sister. Ultimately, her mother ended the reading sessions because Lyn’s sister decided she preferred being read to over learning to read herself. She fell in love with library books at the age of six when a Bookmobile came to her one-room rural elementary school. The day the Bookmobile arrived, Lyn decided she would rather live in the bookmobile than at home and was only ousted following sustained efforts by her teacher and the bookmobile driver.
Lyn graduated from Okemos High School in Michigan and got her college and graduate degrees from Michigan State University. She has a master’s degree in English literature and a Ph.D. in Education, but has always maintained that she remained a student for such a long time only because it gave her an excuse to read. Lyn holds the rank of Professor of Medical Education at Michigan State University and has authored many journal articles, abstracts and research grants. Since her retirement from MSU to become a full-time writer, she has completed a Young Adult Fantasy trilogy called Tales of the Skygrass Kingdom. Volume I from the trilogy is entitled Journey to Maidenstone and is available on amazon.com. Lyn has two daughters and six stepchildren, nine granddaughters and three grandsons. She also has two extremely spoiled Welsh Corgi’s. Her hobby is interior design and she claims she has the equivalent of a master’s degree from watching way too many decorating shows.
ABOUT LISA Lisa Fitzsimmons grew up in Michigan and was always encouraged to read, write and express herself artistically. She was read aloud to frequently. Throughout her childhood and teenage years, she was seldom seen without a book in hand. After becoming a mom at a young age, she attended Michigan State University in a tri-emphasis program with concentrations in Fine Art, Art History an Interior Design.
Lisa, with her husband and their two children, moved to North Carolina for three exciting years and then on to Tennessee, which she now calls home. She has enjoyed an eighteen-year career as a Muralist and Interior Designer in middle Tennessee but has always been interested in writing. Almost five years ago, Lisa and her mom, Lyn, began working on a writing project inspired by local events. The Mae December Mystery series was born.
Lisa, her husband, and their three dogs currently divide their time between beautiful Northern Michigan in the summertime and middle Tennessee the rest of the year. She and her husband feel very blessed that their “empty nest” in Tennessee is just a short distance from their oldest, who has a beautiful family of her own. Their youngest child has settled in Northern Michigan, close to their cabin there. Life is good.
