Discovering Wild Texas Rose- Justice Brentley Reporting...

I am very excited that I found this place in Second Life called the Wild Texas Rose.  Entering into the sim for the first time, I  felt like time had turned back. The old western theme at the Wild Texas Rose has many things to offer, like horseback riding on the trails or right on into town.

While you are in the town, check out the saloon where you can ride the mechanical bull and horse while listening to all the greatest tunes from  DJ's.

 Wild Texas Rose has rooms for rent as if you were back in that era.  You and your partner can even ride in the carriage around town. 

You better watch the sky's though!  You never know when a tornado will blow through. With the storm animations all in motion, it brings some realistic weather effects to Second Life.

I decided to interview as many people as I could, to get a feel of the atmosphere, and how things are run in these parts. First, a rather liberally-dressed young woman, known as Frisco June, led me to Dutch Annie’s, a local establishment for questionable entertainment. She has been in Tombstone for two years.
