Got it! This is in the village of La Vera.[attachment=1:37tigqrm]Picture 003.jpg[/attachment:37tigqrm]

New tag :- A reservoir. This one collects water for when we have forest fires. The helicopters swoop down & fill their buckets.[attachment=0:37tigqrm]Picture 004.jpg[/attachment:37tigqrm]

Re: Tag-o-rama Gone Global

Looks to be enough water just beyond that retaining pond.

Re: Tag-o-rama Gone Global

I would imagine that dropping salt water and a few stray fish onto a forest fire is bad form. Also there would be a safety factor involved for the copter and crew.

Yes, if they used salt water,the soil would be so contaminated that nothing would grow afterwards.

Now required for many new developments in many parts of the US.

[attachment=1:2wx9uyln]Pond.jpg[/attachment:2wx9uyln]

New tag: Round barn

[attachment=0:2wx9uyln]RoundBarn.jpg[/attachment:2wx9uyln]

Yes, it really WAS a barn originally.
Let's say that any round building will do......and if not perfectly round, at least 6 sides.
Bonus points if it's red.

Re: Tag-o-rama Gone Global

Alrighty, then.....

Here's the round building, looks like at least 24 sides, but basically round.


And here's the new tag:
An airport control tower.
