Rose Hill, Illinois

Rose Hill, Illinois

To help you further visualize what I am thinking when I am writing, I am adding a new phase to FTR reporting here. To the left you will find a "Virtual Map" of where people live and are located within the city. Of course this is not to par or to scale - just a vision for me to go by. I will also be adding Set Profiles from time to time which let you get the vision of what I have in mind when I am writing. Many of the sets I visualize are from other shows or based on other shows, so some will be very familiar to you. So here we are - my vision of "Rose Hill, Illinois"
