“One of our Cities is Missing,” written by Sci-fi author Irving Cox, is a riveting portrayal of the horrors of nuclear war. There were cities being vaporized across America. The Communists had finally made their big move. Unfortunately, it was the big “nuclear” move. Stark terror and total devastation enveloped the face of the planet. Who would save humanity when the trusted leaders of government could no longer be trusted? In this riveting portrayal of the horrors of nuclear war, veteran science fiction author Irving Cox shows us that it’s the “little” people who will likely survive the horrors of nuclear war. Facing seemingly insurmountable odds, they band together in an effort to bring peace to a world in tatters—peace and a semblance of sanity to a devastated mankind. But while their intentions are noble, their chances of success seem decidedly low…
By all those who have found it: It’s a Volkswagen beetle in the bottom right headlights to the right of the picture.
I have never seen anything in any of these things because they require depth perception which I do not have (seriously).
I looked and looked, but no one has outlined, circled, or otherwise indicated its exact location; and if there is an official version, I didn’t find that either.
The building exists in Galicia, Spain (Northwest corner).
Aha! I may be late tonight, but I didn’t forget about BatBasset and Sparrow!
As predicted, they’re finding their way out of their wee predicament…
which will soon no longer be wee, we hope…. and when they attain full size, they can begin to overpower the evil cats.
…
Normally, that wouldn’t be a problem for a couple of strong basset hounds, and especially not for two superhero hounds…
but these are no normal cats…
Two with the ingrained power of evil, plus a small horde… OK, about half a dozen… of their feline sycophants with… well… really not much to offer, but they do occasionally follow orders.
…
Meanwhile, Sparrow did not lie about his vertical climbing prowess, and BatBasset easily dispatches a … pit bull size(?) spider.
I guess it’s pit bull size to a 6″ (upright) basset hound… I’ll forgive him a slight exaggeration.
Everything looks gigantic when you’re shorter than a chihuahua.
….
Let the unshrinking begin…. only be careful, Sparrow!
Unless there are presets, you could create a 20 footBatBasset! Saaayy… there’s an idea….
But it might go against the superhero code, or some such…
and as I said… BatBasset is upright.
He still occasionally has to cool down the gung-ho and over-eager young Sparrow.
..
I’m just glad the spider is dispatched, and won’t accidentally become not just pit bull, but great Dane size.

Athos, Porthos, & Aramis.
That is about the size of my Kiki.
Kiki might be a little bigger, but not by much.
Compact cat.
Why am I suddenly wanting to snap my fingers?
Oh yeah…. “When you’re a Jet, you’re a Jet all the way…🎶”
…from your first cigarette to your last dying day….
Rita Hayworth
We just do not see this type of beauty, this type of wholesomeness, in today’s movies…
(and then, here’s me, playing in the background, the Seals & Crofts proffering “We May Never Pass This Way Again” — IRONIC, eh?)

I’ve set this to start at the story. ONE OF OUR CITIES IS MISSING The whole magazine is there complete with advertisements and illustrations
“and the meek shall inherit the Earth…”
Good gif!

One of our augers is missing.
She’s 15 years old here.
Her whole performance (gif begins a 2 minutes 40 seconds).

Have we seen this previously? Maybe even in the Sherpa days?
Is your home having problems with mold and fungus?
Get new “SPORES-B-GONE” from Dow Chemical. It kills damn near anything!
Actually, this is the inside of the car.
Time to clean it after a hard winter and get the little goldfish castle out of the rear window ledge.
I think this is a stereogram, which I can almost but not quite see.
On my computer monitor I could usually see them readily…
I just can’t seem to hold the tablet screen at the proper distance and angle.
