I can add more smileys, but it looks like the only way to add new ones is manually configuring each one.  There's nothing in that Hyves Smileys pack about automating the addition of new ones.

Chapter 16




  We noticed that the harvest of year 16 was not being taken to storage; the half-barrels of barley and turnips were sitting on the fields.  The storage units were full but there was plenty of room in the market but still the crops sat out on the fields.  We assigned another worker to the market thinking to make room in the pit houses, but then it snowed.  We may have lost some crops but our harvest totals were still very good.  We built a small turf storage unit by the herbalist and a log shed down the road closer to the barley field.  The two houses in that area still did not have enough tar on site for the builders to complete their work.   We were also short of bog iron; construction work began on an iron mine north of the foresters.
 




  In spring of year 17, another group of migrants arrived but did not stay; they headed south.  They did not want to take a boat.  Our daughter, Mericka, was concerned every time her father talked about exploring this new world.  She was 15, and old enough to marry.  She was good friends with both Lenaro living next to us and Zollins living 2 doors down, 17-year-old Alvadore, in one of the frame houses behind the mead hall, seemed interested in her.  She said she was not going anywhere. 

  It was a hot summer with temperatures in the upper 70s.  Work continued on the mine but stopped long enough for the builders to return to the frame houses when the needed tar was finally available.





  The two frame houses along that back row were finally completed in autumn. Zollins along with Abigayley moved into one house, and his younger brother, Ranco, moved into the other.  Merika did not seem upset.

Chapter 15



  Construction of the mead hall stopped while the builders waited for tar.  It was summer before the building was completed and the mead was brought out of storage.  We had plenty of mead on hand but were not sure how fast 2 mead halls would go through the supply.  We would have to keep a close eye on the brewer barrel and the beehives.  Our overall happiness improved again and we did not want it to drop.



  Jesnser spent a lot of time in that mead hall but it was not to drink mead.  He was busy going over boat blueprints with the new boat builder.  One of the woodcutters from the sawmill decided she would try to build some boats.   It should not be too difficult to make a basic riverboat.  Surely there must be a settlement or two downriver where some trading could be done.  A fishing boat might be useful, maybe even a boat like the one we had.  Construction of the first riverboat began immediately.





  There were other constructions that had also begun.  Not wanting the town's overall health to drop, an herbalist hut was built over by the cemetery.  A frame house was being build next to it and another one further down the road.  There were several young couples that wanted homes, but both houses were waiting for clay before they could be finished.



  The first riverboat was completed and equipped with crates and barrels and a cover for them.  If any young couples wanted to set off on their own, they were being encouraged to settle along a river in the hopes of later being part of a trade route.  Starting supplies would be given to them, just like back in Smallville.  We should start thinking of growing more potatoes.

Chapter 14






  Newburg is actually not a bad place to live and the winters are not all that bad; temperatures are usually in the upper teens and low 20s.  The winter of year 14 was a cold one; it got down to only 4 degrees.  We've had no major storms, the snow falls gently.  The roads are always passable.  The winter days are very short and the nights and the shadows are very long.  It's nice to have the greenhouses and our little chapels.  Workers often stopped in at both for a few minutes just to warm up.  We built yet another chapel over by the apple and walnuts trees; it's in a good spot for the outside workers in that area to take a break. 





   Summer in Newburg is always pleasant with sunshine and temperatures in the low to mid 60s.  It's been as warm as 67 degrees on more than one occasion.  Autumn is usually a bit chilly and by late autumn winter arrives with cold and snow.  Spring is always welcome when it finally arrives; that spring of year 16 especially, because a 2nd mead hall was under construction over by the river.
