Today’s adventure is coming to you due to inspiration by the great inspirational Inara Pey and the shameless thievery of of Orca Flotta. 😉 Yeah, Inara found Coyote River first but I was smitten by her article and photos and kinda decided on the spot I just had to go and see it with my own eyes. So here is what I found:
As everywhere in SL it’s all about katzus …… and decay. Cause it’s chic.… Ruins of a civilisation? Flying Coyote River gives indeed an impression of a post-apocalyptic village.Tea. Yeah, I believe you guys. 😉 Tea, mhm.The terraforming and landscaping of Flying Coyote reminds me of the Pacific Northwest of the USA. Or Canada.But then … ooh, what’s that? Doesn’t look like a dinosaurus but more like …… the remnants of hardcore Tolkien-esque dragons. Fantasy olé! WTF happened here???All this is in stark contrast to some of the really nice houses of Flying Coyote River. This one offers a view to die for.Whoa! Shut up and take my money!Inside the organic tea business. Yeah, I kinda knew they had something more than just tea on offer here.Then back to the postapocalypse: Someone turned this crashed plane into a rustic camp.In hindsight it wasn’t maybe nearly as romantic for the crash survivors back then.More signs of a past postapocalypse: This derailed Second Life Railway train.“ChooChoo! I’m a trai…” Know what, forget it.Looks like a comunity kitchen for the survivors of the Coyote River apocalypse.WOW! This is a serious treehouse.From the inside it looks like it could’ve been a ranger station or something.Whatever it once was, it is an impressive build!The gypsy wagon is super cool. Still, how the fuk did they get that thing onto the ledge???Emergency shelters everywhere. The apocalypse created obviously mainly hobos.But then again some super nice seaside cabins. Something is pretty much off the rails in this sim. Onsen? I’d rather not. Uaargs! 😮I can imagine myself living here. 🙂Isn’t this a super nice property?In this house … well, somebody had a food orgy and then left without doing the dishes.Oh yes, let’s not forget the kittens.Nuisance? Naaaw. 😉Then a super nice house again.It was of course overrun by kittens. It’s a sure sign of the postapocalypse.This piano … let’s say you wouldn’t wanna touch it with bare hands. But I couldn’t resist playing a Beethoven sonata.Nice views from the Flying Coyote lighthouse.In pretty much all directons.I love the overabundance of wind generators. After the apocalypse the inhabitants of Flying Coyote had obviously learned how to live in harmony with mother nature.This home needs the loving hand of a cleaning housewife. Hey, don’t look at me. I’m a slut.More decay at the coastline. Still not entirely sure what happened here, but it couldn’t have been a very pleasant experience. 😦More cozy homeless shelters.At least the environment seems to be intact and healthy.Graveyard doesn’t seem to be overfilled neither.Maybe a weird variance shift, some Star Trek science or so, but what is this fuel pump doing on the woody hillside?Somebody seems to be quite industrious around here.At least the population of Flying Coyote was or is clever enough to worship female gods. 😉Another fine but small residence …… that’s much bigger inside than it appears from the outside.I love all those suspension bridges. They make it easy to get around the terrain.Although some of the houses are built on not-so-stable foundations …… as you can see from this view onto the same house. Seems almost as if it’s hovering above the Coyote River.Hah! Despite a clear and strong bias on cats, this woofpack holds its ground!A last look at the landing point.
Conclusion: I haven’t read Inara’s article about Flying Coyote River yet, have no idea about what was going on in this pretty sim. Clean research isn’t my forte, so if you wanna know more, like, real facts n shit, may I refer you to Inara’s article?
However, Flying Coyote River is one of the most interesting sims I’ve ever visited. Other sims you take a look at and say Aaaaw! and after five minutes you’re ready to leave again. No so with Flying Coyote. Here you find something to look at and wonder about around every corner. The whole terraforming and landscaping is layed out in a way that makes you wanna look around the next corner, behind the next hilltop, into one more house or cave or tower or or or. I’ve spent roughly two hours this morning in Flying Coyote. I advice you to do the same, take your time and don’t try to take it all in within some minutes.
