Also in this picture you can see the Kaori flower, also from Yugen.

This old classic has been parked behind the barn and left untended. The B-Made Jagu is a new release ready for this upcoming round of Cosmopolitan which opens June 1st. The Jagu contains animations and has a Land Impact of 13.

Oak trees grow in the wild but are also popular ornamental trees. The Wild Oak Tree v2 and v3 from The Little Branch are out now at Uber! Highly detailed, with realistic textures and animated foliage; these beauties look good anywhere! Season change menu available upon Touch. LI 3-7.

In The Half-Light

Be seeing you, sweetling. In the half-light.
The Buzzing

For this round of Cosmopolitan, GOOSE has the Umbrella Bench set. The umbrella lantern is a fun, a little strange but beautiful piece which inspired the half-light mood of this picture. The bench comes in PG and Adult versions.

I’m also featuring the beautiful aelin tree and the noori flower by Yugen. Like all trees from Yugen, you get a leaf and bark HUD and you can find four different versions of the tree in the box and each version come in a high and a low LOD version. The noori flowers come with or without fireflies, touch the flower for texture changer menu. Easy peasy and you’ve got yourself the most beautiful and magical scenery!

The Agarwood Tree is an evergreen tree that was mostly found in Northeast India, Bangladesh and Southeast Asia, and is now considered endangered. Deep, rich, earthy and personal, its sweet yet sharp balsamic woodiness will stimulate all of your senses. Agarwood trees grow randomly in the forest, usually in difficult to reach places. A couple of them have made it down to our beach for the sake of this picture. Agarwood is also an aphrodisiac, both in oil form, and as incense. The Agarwood Tree is a new release by The Little Branch and it’s available at this round of Uber. Happy landscaping!

Believe in Tomorrow

To plant a garden is to believe in tomorrow.

There is still so much beauty in this world I have to believe that one day soon I can enjoy it fully again, together with the love of my life. That we all can be together with our loved ones. Let’s believe in tomorrow. I’m blogging so many beautiful things here, find the details below. Happy Friday everyone and stay safe!

Route 69

When we’re not on SL, M and I often watch horror shows together on Netflix (screen share in Discord for the win!). Her passion for the genre has opened my eyes to Norwegian horror as we’ve watched Cave and are now enjoying the Bloodride short stories. Villmark and Cold Prey are definitely also now on the ‘to watch’ list! This scene I’ve created doesn’t look anything like Norwegian horror though; no dark forest, no looming mountains or cracking glacier… but would you stay at the Wander Inn?

Wade Into Life

Either you decide to stay in the shallow end of the pool or you go out in the ocean.

Before you courageously go wading into deep waters though, take a little time to beautify your pond with this lovely new Water Scene with Heron, plants and rocks, from EED Home&Garden. You’ll find a resizer menu upon Touch. Available now at the EED mainstore and marketplace.

Spring Ready

March 8, 2020Sander Sunborne Leave a comment

The puppies and I were walking in slush this morning as the snow from last week is now thawing. I’m so ready for Spring, especially when looking at the Summertime Cottage from DaD, with curtains blowing in the ocean breeze, flowers in bloom all around and the log planter from EED looks exactly like the ones my dad made at the cabin. Happy Sunday everyone!
