ANZAC Day

May the tired old heroes from a forgotten war have the peace they were not granted in life.

Holidaze...

I apologize for the lack of updates on this silly blog, although rest be assured, I have been fair busy with the Aviara animals and the upcoming flying Eagle (with the talented Miss Ilsa Munro).

Lazy though I may be, I am nonetheless taking a bit of a holiday until the 22nd. I'll be popping online today, albeit briefly, to take care of final housekeeping. Then it is off to pack, mostly planning on driving aimlessly about with our RL bicycles in tow. It's getting warm enough to allow for that sort of thing, so I ought take advantage of the moment between "too hot" and "too cold", and enjoy the "just right".

Yours etc,

Inspired by the fact that I am suffering from extreme fuzz deprivation, but also need to keep the spirits (and my blog ranking) up, I share the following with you:

Puppy

My RL dog passed away today. I wish I could say more, something eloquent, something that explained how much a part of our lives she was, or how she was my fuzzy relief in some terribly difficult times. More prosaically, she was the inspiration and model for many of my SecondLife animals. Her myriad of expressions live on through my clumsy hands that way, at least.

But words fail me. In the end, she was a dog, and dogs are love. In my better moments, I hope to be half as goodhearted and cheerful as she was. I owe her that, I think.

Bay Trekehner Horse

Still have to get this fellow into his box, but in the meantime, I took him for a ride in the "badlands" below Grendle's avatar shop (also known as Aviara). For those of you who haven't seen the area, it's well worth the trip. There's also a game called the Aviaran expedition, which has you rooting about for things to make other things, things to feed things to get things to make things, and in general have a good time wandering about. There are rumours that this game may soon find its way to Caledon, with a special steampunk twist...

When the Hurly Burly's Done

I know everyone is all aflutter about the New Babbage Mayoral campaign, with its wonderful campaign advertisements, but surely those kingdoms who aren't in the throes of an election can have Fun Posters as well?

Sighted around Lionsgate

I truly don't know what to make of these tattered photographs that I found washed up on the beaches of Lionsgate. Someone apparently took these with their trusty Brownie somewhere just to the Northeast of Port Caledon, judging by the buildings one can see in the background of the first. The second photograph is even more inexplicable, as it seems to have been taken underwater--no doubt by one of our local Intrepid Explorers with some clever Aquatic Submersible Conveyance.

But why were these photographs so casually discarded? And more to the point, what on Earth are they of? I fear these questions may have to be unanswered at this time, but all I know is that sailor would not be unwise to exercise All Due Caution when navigating the waters of the Middlesea.
