Taffington Refuge

Once upon a time, there was this little old lady, Mrs. Taffington, who moved from the big city when she retired from being a school teacher. She wanted a calm tranquil place to live out the rest of her years. Her daughter, Nora, had her own life; spoiled as she was, being a hot shot, snotty lawyer. And a niece that drove her batty, Marcy. So the little old lady moved from Quincy to a sweet spot of heaven. A bread and breakfast she wanted to create, her dream of having wonderful guests.... and then getting the hell out when they wore out their welcome... and their money.

Everything was beautiful, on the quiet river. Except for across the river was loud neighbors, blaring their "music"... but only when the wind blew a certain way...

It was perfect. Then the bombs fell...… The crowd moved in. Drifters and grifters.

Then one day, a woman who said she was helping rebuild the minutemen, started cleaning up the mess. But this was personal. This was her mom.

My 10 pictures are attached.

Yeah, so I have issues with the build limit. Found using Raze My Settlement eats up some of my limit... yes, I used the city mod - did tests on the limit. And in order to get down below 2x, I will have to redo most of it... don't think I will have time to fix this in less than a week. Sorry, guys.

Only a few days to go , make sure you have your top 10 screenshots in your 1st post.
 
Midnight 28th.
If you can get your 10 pics and your level 3 save done by then we will accept your entry but you will have to get the rest done fairly quick after that ;)

Sorry brother. I thought I had till Saturday. I am doubtful at the moment. I lost 3 weeks because of build limit issue - thought I was done but was over suddenly... :(

Still a day to go. Would be a shame to not see it finished, looking really good what you've posted so far. Good luck.
 
And @uituit I want you to know I probably look as frazzled as my Nora...

FAIR WARNING!

Ever tell you I hate settlers... "gotta get back to Diamond City" "Good neighbor is nothing but trouble"...

And what I would do for some clean fingernails... :)

Anyway, as I was finishing my 10 pics, my Nora decided to get a beer... and F M L …

"We are in need of some real help... "

Poor Nora can't even have a beer for a sec before the needy cretins are calling on the General...

BTW, just noticed the 15 bed! WTH. This has been plaguing me... green to yellow to green... I will get those 3 scrapped before uploading a file to somewhere? :)

3x 25% plus on BL … checked ultra performance. Refreshed all plots/local data. Recalculated actual BL usage... bleh.

10 pictures posted. First time entering so I hope I can meet approval (no fat shaming here!) :) not me of course, so just bounce off me!)

John

BTW - @uituit this picture was at 430am this morning (yesterday)! Then I was sick today... slept on/off most of the day... geez.
