Building and Builds / A builder exploring Second Life [A Continuous Story]

Most of the people that know me, know that I love to build and that I love details. A week ago I went to Las Arenas Rosadas. Maybe some of you know the place because of the Realistic waves, Sculpted Rocks, Ocean waves, Tropical Ocean and Tropical Sea Color.
But next to that Sim there are a few other Sims where I saw some great SL builds,
made by the same creator. Here are a few pictures.

With this post about building, a song about building from The Housemartins.

The Housemartins were an English indie pop band that was active in the 1980s.
"Build" is a song released from the album The People Who Grinned Themselves to Death by The Housemartins. It follows the softer template of the group's later material and reached #15 in the UK Singles Chart.

Build - The Housemartins

Clambering men in big bad boots
Dug up my den, dug up my roots
Treated us like plasticine town
They built us up and knocked us down

From Meccano to Legoland
Here they come with a brick in their hand
Men with heads filled up with sand
It's build

It's build a house where we can stay
Add a new bit everyday
It's build a road for us to cross
Build us lots and lots and lots and lots and lots

Whistling men in yellow vans
They can and drew us diagrams
Showed us how it all worked it out
And wrote it down in case of doubt

Slow, slow, quick, quick, quick
It's wall to wall and brick to brick
They work so fast it makes you sick
It's build

It's build a house where we can stay
Add a new bit everyday
It's build a road for us to cross
Build us lots and lots and lots and lots and lots

It's build

Down with sticks and up with bricks
In with boots and up with roots
It's in with suits and new recruits
It's build
