Now that more folks have moved into St Helens and got down & dirty with their prims, I thought it was time to get out on Frank and take a few pics for you, dear reader. For a start, I’ve pretty much finished my forest and campsite and my 3ksqm has moved from this…

So early one morning, when people were still in bed and less likely to see me and point & stare, Frank and I headed through the foothills of Mount St Helens and around Spirit Lake. Lunar’s place still looks as lovely as ever:

The properties just north of Spirit Lake are still there (see part 1 of the tour for those) but this time I wanted to point out a small patch of common ground which had some very odd looking boulders on them. What are they? What is the ground for?

Towards the north western border with Boomtown there are lots of lovely little plots (and a goodly few still available to rent – see the end of this post) including Mari Moonbeams wee cabin:

A curious bunny tent from Katsu Catnap:

Crossing the bridge I saw Mara Razor’s new watermill. I’m hoping to contact Miss Razor about the regular purchase of supplies from her mill and animals as that would save me a trip into town where the scamps stare and call names behind my back.

A little way past the mill I came across a water tower…

They belonged to Bobbijo Jonson who’s created a very colourful nature paradise!

Behind her land and next to Maxim’s retreat (see part 1 of the tour for a pic) is a paddock belonging to Riven Homewood – I can’t wait for spring when she moves some ponies in there!

Down by the water Mari Moonbeam’s farm and Frequency Picnic’s cabin are looking great:

Frank & I were at the end of the tour on this side of the river and so retraced our steps and headed back over the mountain and through our forest to see the two new properties on our side of the water. The first is a grand Victorian mansion belonging to Vain Adder – how the hell he got all the wood and supplies all the way out here in the wilderness I’ll never know!

Beyond him Autopilotpatty Poppy has hollowed out two of the biggest redwood stump I’ve ever seen and is busy turning them into a very cost looking home!

This, dear reader, brings me to the end of my second St Helens Tour. As more folks move in and as builds change and evolve, I’ll bring you more pics, but in the meantime if my reports and pictures have led you to think you’d like to move in, then you’re in luck! There are a few 512sqm & 1024sqm plots left – some in the SW corner (where I am):

And some are over in the NW corner near the borders of Boomtown & Shanghai:

It’s a modified fountain from here: https://www.xstreetsl.com/modules.php?name=Marketplace&file=item&ItemID=1522182 – the creator changed the internal script to give a 30s burst every 15m for an extra 500L$ and threw the base pool in for free. Drop him a line, he’s a lovely fella!

Lovely pictures! (And I hope Lunar is giving you a commission on any business you bring in!)

We’d be happy to do buisness with you at the mill, but you do realize that some of the scamps live there. Right?

I do now
Seriously though (and OOC) I hope the scamps don’t mind me saying this about them – I’m just dropping things in about people pointing and staring at the burnt HBA to give him a reason to seek the solitude of St Helens. I would have thought that kids being kids they would stare and and point, even if not maliciously, so I wrote it in. If people do mind then it’s easy enough to say it’s all in HBA’s imagination.
A random thought – it’d be nice if the supplies (obviously there are no real supplies, I’m just saying there are for the RP) were brought over by a scamp who might befriend HBA and bring him out of his shell… just a thought that occured to me now… should I email you to discuss RPing together?
