The imminent closing of The Crooked House got me thinking about a suggestion Ilsa Hesse sent me awhile ago: A Second Life Bucket List. That is, she explained, "Places you have to visit, or things you have to do in Second Life." As we too often see, those places can suddenly or unexpectedly disappear, or the people who make them possible without announcement depart.
If you had to suggest your absolute must-experience items, what would they be? I'll be compiling and blogging a list of my very favorites, incorporating reader nominations if possible, so please provide details in Comments, with SLurls (ideally) and web/social links (when available).
the Beanstalk - the first build in Second Life not made by a Linden. made by Steller Sunshine, Second Life's first resident. I know I am a "softie" but honestly, it makes tears well in my eyes, what it represents. It is Second Life's Mecca.
Zale - Pavl Duke's shop. about a sim and a half of "wow, that is strange?!?"
the Far Away - or pretty much anything made by AM Radio

(Also - essential on a SL bucket list is to be part of a virtual protest! So join SL Left Unity group for details!!)

This is sort of backwards. The "bucket list" is a list of things to do before *you* kick the bucket, not a list of places to go before *they* kick the bucket. It's sad that the number of such places is increasing.
That said... do visit the Minoan Empire, due to shut down July 6th. http://slurl.com/secondlife/The%20Minoan%20Empire/53/41/401/
