Hillside Crossing

Today we have another post from our blogger Bev!
Enjoy Ladies!! 


Taking the teleport to Hillside Junction we find ourselves at a divergent path.  In RL being but one traveler one would be sorry she could not travel both paths. We may keep one for another day as we walk the other way.  Yet knowing how way leads on to way, we doubt if we should ever come back.¹ But here we are in SL with the freedom to enjoy both..

Before you decide on a path if you’ve come with someone special, take a moment to enjoy a nice cuddle as you watch the sun rise.  If you’ve come by yourself, seek out the stands of meditation mushrooms for quiet contemplation and relaxation. 

In one direction we have the fire-watch tower.  This is one of the highest places around and offers a spectacular vista, where princesses keep the view and women come and go². Below the tower, underground is one of the rental homes available on at Venus Beach.  This one is perhaps my favorite.  Reminiscent of a modernized version of the Pueblo cliff dwellings in Mesa Arizona, the apartment is built right into the cliff; hewn from the solid volcanic basalt.  One side opens up to a panoramic view of the ocean from your balcony, while the other spills out onto a private beach at the base of the cliff.  There must be some kind of way out of here².  Head back down the path and keep going.  

As I tread this path I came across my little friend here, the giant fawn.  As you can see he’s very friendly although he tends to keep to himself.  

Along this path you will find a bench to relax and some quiet areas to cuddle. Off to the left there is a cute little tent to snuggle up and enjoy the sunset.  This path leads to the Rotunda but along the way you will pass a hang glider.  Hold on tight and jump off.  You can take in the entire sim as you soar through the air. Marvel at the breathtaking scenery.  Make sure to see both sides of the peninsula before you head back in. 

The path not taken¹ leads to one of my favorite features of the Venus sims. The trees part revealing the vibrant colors of a flower carpeted meadow.  In open fields of wildflowers, she breaths the air and flies away³.
