Okay, I've gotten a sense of your likes and dislikes as it relates to these two characters.  Awesome stuff.  Now, I believe this will be the last poll for the upcoming serial.  I may do another for names or if something else strikes me, but this will likely be the last one before it begins.

So we are about to add a fairly major island along the West Coast.  The town is populous enough to have a college and a McD's and the island big enough to allow our MC to get out to do some nature photography.  I'm thinking the town's gotta be at least 30k and the island about the size of Kaua'i.  Let's flesh out the area a bit.

I'll leave this up until tomorrow/Sunday.  Then I can start sinking my teeth into it properly.  😄  I have REALLY enjoyed watching this world and these characters slowly come into focus with these polls.  I hope you had fun too.  Thank you all for participating.
