Get this thing going

At long last I've got the car ready and I've headed on for the star line, on the northwest tip of Sansara.

When I arrived, this was the scene that greeted me.

The route I picked is spouse to be a scenic one, so first I'll go down to the far south on the snow covered mountains before tracking back up and to head to the far east where the journey will end.

But before I turned the car around and get started, I thought I might have a look around to see what I could find.
If the whole point of this trip was to show just how volatile and ever changing Second Life is, I'm not on to a good start, because just on the side of the road I found a store named Almitra's, by Almitra Blair which seemed just like a time capsule.

In all fairness she hasn't logged in since 2013, although her husband (by the time this was written) did logged in just a month ago.
But still, even back in 2013 everything here was already too far outdated, prices range from 45L$ to 250L$, crazy money for what's on offer.

On the other side of the road the place was at least more recently built, all basic prims, but still, all neatly placed.

Because it looked like a private place, I decided to leave immediately but it didn't matter, because on the other side of the water I spotted something that looked interesting.

I went further inside only to realize it was a train station. Those are always interesting, and surprisingly filled with stories.

But as I went further inside I stumbled across something that frankly left me without any words.
On the station there wasn't just an actual train station with running trains, there was an area dedicated to help new comers and more than that, two memorials.

Garth FairChang which passed away in 2009 and Elmer Voss that passed away in 2008.

That's the actual year I joined Second Life, 2008. I've spent more time than you think on these memorials.

Somehow this gave me a taste of my own mortality, one certain thing I have is that I'm gonna go one day, I wonder how people will remember me, I wonder if anyone would ever make me a memorial like these.
