A Bunneh About Town

Since I am pretty much back, I have resumed my duties as a Steelhead Ambassador and that means I am the Councilor for Harborside. I get to welcome folks and pretty much make sure things are OK. I thought I'd take a walk through the town. Takes a while on tiny bunneh feet, but I did find these carrots (YUM!) at the Steaming Rabbit Cafe in Harborside...
Called a truce and fed the turkeys in Boomtown...
 And climbed up and took in the view of the whole town from the top of St. Helen's...
I love Steelhead.

Reflections on RFL 2014

As some of you know, RFL is a very personal thing for me. One of the reasons I came to SL in the first place was that I was dealing with my mother's cancer treatment at the time. I saw SL as a place of peace where I could build and forget for a moment. RFL is my yearly reminder of her and others who are special to me's fight with this disease. I know so many who lost their battle and others, like my mom, are still here to fight another day...
I totally enjoyed cheering folks on from the Steelhead campsite this year. Pared down my outfit and stood barefoot in the grass as folks went by...
As I heard the names of those that I love honored during the luminaria ceremony, I welled up. There is a reason why we do this every year...
Our Steelhead Salmons team and the town of Steelhead raised over $1000.00. This year's Relay in SL raised over $410,000 real-life dollars overall! Thank you all so much for participating and trying to make a difference!

RFL Campsites and Sims 2014

I mostly cheered folks on this year rather than doing lots of laps myself. If you came by Steelhead, you got "Hooo"'d. Here is Lunar's fantastic build for Steelhead's campsite...
 I love my Raglan Shire community of tinies...
 This Troy Vogel-designed sim kinda reminded me of Superman's Fortress of Solitude...
 MUSHROOMS! GIANT...GLOWING...MUSHROOMS!
 Underwater sims were a new thing this year and I LOVED them!
 A derpasaurus! Wait...it has a gold tooth. Too funny!
 Alia Baroque's very pretty sim...
 And Beq Janus' Escher-inspired "Metamorphosis" site...
It was nice to see so many people participating despite the lag from beyond!

Steelhead West Moorland

I thought I would explore the latest sim in Steelhead: Steelhead West Moorland...
 It is a wild and beautiful place...
 How could I resist running through a meadow full of wildflowers?!
