Remembered Joys

1 Floating

I remember times when I had days like this – relaxing on a raft on a lake, not a worry to crease my brow, except whether or not I would be attacked by a swan. Actually, I was on my dock, but it was still restful as I allowed the gentle sounds of waves lapping against the shore to soothe me. I always kept a wary eye on the swans, but a stash of stale bread that I could toss to them kept them at bay.

Sometimes days gone by are a little pick-me-up when the weather is bleak and your spirits are low. Remembered moments; remembered joys.

Blank Canvas

1 Deserted

When thinking of a desert, usually I imagine a desolate, lonely place, devoid of life and colour. But that is far from the truth. The shadows and occasional hummock of grass give it a palette that is stark, but beautiful. The sky, redolent of reds and yellows are the backdrop to the austere artwork.

It is a blank canvas, just waiting for the artist’s inspiration.

Surf Watch

1 Surf

The February round of The Challenge features the theme of Community. Here on the east coast of Australia, a surf club is a fitting community theme. Almost every beachside suburb has its own surf club, where whole towns come together not just for the water sport, but for Surf Lifesaving, activities for the kids and fundraising for the community.

Since my home is currently beach-less, I hopped over to Purple Crayons to set up my very own surf club. Rwah’s second sim is now open, and anyone can rez there to take photographs. There is a generous 30-minute auto-return set, so you should have time to set up and shoot before stuff starts mysteriously reappearing in your inventory. Honestly, the sim is picturesque enough to not have to worry about setting up your own scene, but it’s wonderful to have the location available for those times when your home or platform just won’t do.

Grab your board and join me; I’m done watching and surf’s up.
