An Invitation to Mardi Gras

First dance event of 2016 is the carnival of Mardi Gras (meaning fat Tuesday in French) and called shrove Tuesday in England, the Christian tradition of of the last night of eating richer, fatty foods before the ritual fasting of the lent season.  We will be celebrating New Orleans style wearing masks, costumes, dancing, parades and general debauchery! A collection of floats will parade through the streets of  New Orleans Shadows with each float pausing outside the newly built Theatre for onlookers to watch one fabulous dance performance per float.  Make a date in your diary to come along and be a part of the festivities.

Tuesday 9th February 2016 ~ Parade starts 2pm slt

Winter is Coming,,,,and so is Christmas!

 A cosy log cabin with roaring open fire nestled in the snowy pine forest mountains is the best way to spend the winter months.  For me that's not going to happen in real life but all is not lost,,, it can be created in second life!  I embarked on a project to build that cosy log cabin and fireplace with a few extras thrown in for the forthcoming holiday season too which can be found for sale on my market place store or in world
Link to market place store: https://marketplace.secondlife.com/stores/60797

Log cabin frontage,,, my favourite feature is the weather control. For this time of year you have the option to have snow on the roof and snow fall and for other times of the year you can have it raining!

(the pine trees are a free gift in the shop, only one prim each)

 Cabin interior,,,,wooden staircase to balcony first floor for an open plan feel

Cabin interior,,,, spacious for easy camming around

A few seasonal decorations

Festive fun kissing under the mistletoe ~ try it out for yourself in world!

Harrington Estate ~ Haunted House and Woodlands

My SL sister, Sugar, messaged me and said she wanted to do a Halloween sim,,,, well I wasn't all that keen at first but I soon got the bug and got stuck in and even created a short back story for it.  I've finally finished it just in the nick of time, two days before all hallows eve,,( phew lol) because afterwards it will all be gone and we plan to replace it with a winter wonderland,,,,, cant wait to get started!

  Harrington estate was owned by the late Dr.Harrington who often offered his mental health patients 'refuge' in his own home

 His treatments were highly questionable and any sane person gave him a wide berth

 Some say he went mad himself and was in 

league with the shaman witch living in the dark forest behind the house

After his demise, his estate became a magnet for the undead and all that is supernatural with activity reaching its peak at Halloween

Will  you venture onto the estate to discover for yourself what strange goings on lurk round the next corner?
