Second life always seems to be full of fun things to do and see. A couple of years ago, a few friends and myself visited a place called Bedrock. I hadn’t been there since, but just last week I decided to see if the place still remained and to my amazement, it is still there!

The place is signposted, but if you are like myself and Dailyn (who was on this visit with me), then you will ignore the signs and just wanna wander around.

Now don’t get me wrong, maybe a couple of years ago, this place looked amazing. By todays standards, it’s not nearly as great! It could do with a total revamp, maybe making use of sculpted prims and less dance balls and throw in an intan dance machine instead. etc.

However, the little touches that made me smile are still there and brought back a smile to my face at least. Yeah I am easily amused. But, check out the stylus on the record players. Simply class

Then of course there is the bowling alley! Again, nothing great and not exactly free to play, but it all adds to another fun time at Bedrock. Most annoyingly is having to use cam view to bowl and then having to come back out again to pick up the next bowling ball. Not good by todays standards! Sort of stuck in the stone age!!! ahem! Moving on…

Classic or what! Elephant fire engine! Which would be needed if this next guy didn’t do his job right I guess…

It is indeed all very primitive stuff! Even down to the textures and prims! But hey, you do get a gift store to spend your L$ in too. Wanna dress up as Fred? Nah! Me either…but you can if u wanna! Or you could do what myself and Dailyn did….just pose behind the cardboard (well..prim) cut-outs. A-la postcard from the beach style!

Finally, after a hard day of yabbadabbadoo’n, what could be more relaxing than spending some quality time with your partner at a drive in movie?

Well it was great to see the old place still existed. And it did bring back some memories, but in all honesty, the magic of seeing it first time a couple of years ago had gone. SL has progressed a lot in the last couple of years for sure.

But if you have nothing better to, grab your loved one by the hair, after hitting her over the head with a club of course, and drag her with you and have some happy Bedrocking fun.
