Whew, okay, I got my Mechanicsburg, VA changes made and uploaded. I did my best with the house geometry (lush tree cover and shadows are tricky, and the houses have some tight corners and porch roofs that like to hide).

Appalachia is so beautiful. I've included a StreetView photo (not used for mapping) from Mechanicsburg to highlight the gorgeous rolling mountains characteristic of this part of the United States.

Arbela, MO before and after. #osm #openstreetmap #UnmappedSmallTownUSA

Someone got to Luray, MO before me, but I popped up the road to Granger, MO and saw that it could use some mapping, too. There might be a little more to do, but I think we're pretty much there!

Bonzen Town vorher...

Bonzen Town nachher...

Wenn diese Leute mit zu viel Geld doch wenigstens ihre abnormalen Häuserformen selber in die #OSM mappen würden, oder deren Architekten, oder deren Angestellte...

Das ist so unglaublich nervig solche abnormalen bonzen Villen zu mappen -.-

I've noticed a few days where @SmallTownUSA et al, have failed to post. The overpass server they query from is very intermittently rejecting calls (as is their right), a bit of retry logic should help without being a burden on their instance.

Let me know if you notice anything else amiss.
