After Prom House Poconos

This is England!

Part

In the previous post, I had the beginnings of Shells town, if you have not read, can do here.

Conchillas lived from and for the company Walker, in charge of running the rock and sand deposits, when There was a wreck. There was only one survivor, a man named David Evans, the chef on board. Evans stayed in Shells, doing what it did best: cooking. He began working for Walker, and soon opened a general store, where employees are trusted, noting the purchase in a book, knowing that when you get paid, you pay. Then began fiarles farmers nearby, payable with the harvest. Will credit, payment has had to build a grain storage galponcito.

The building is a particular building, its sloping roof drains into a gutter that allows to get the water ... great for when the melting season arrives!

Little by little, began to import a little something to sell, a pair of sandals, a glazed bowl, a tractor. Since I was in this business, a term coined its own currency.

a people so prosperous, in which businesses and Walker Evans went from strength to strength, needed a luxury hotel ... and of course, did.

Evans The Hotel opened in 1911, and received business people and tourists of rank. At present, it is closed, and no visits. When we tried to enter, to request permission to see even from outside, first we went to meet a very friendly dog \u200b\u200bwagged his tail enthusiastically, and then a man barked at us, so we retreated with their tails between their legs. For some cameras have zoom.

Prosperity and Conchillas idyllic life came to an end after the Second World War, the Empire Britain was no longer what it was, and early '50s, the company shut down Walker light, closed and left.

What is left? Unique architecture, memories, at this point, with a veneer of legend, of a prosperous past and a cemetery quite different from the rest of the country.

The port looks like a ghost town, the locals will fish, or be a barbecue under the trees.

And lest anyone doubt that was the twenty-first century, there are cyber.

Conchillas What of? As winds of change can be foreseen, the Montes del Plata company plans to install a cellulose processing plant ...

Surely the few inhabitants of Conchillas dream of prosperity around lost ...

will have to see if the banks of the gentle little beach locals may continue fishing all the time in the world, or will the time that a memory-only at this point, with hints of a past legend-of uncontaminated.
