Avie Poll: What is Everyone’s Favorite SL Summer Activity? Carrisa Silverfall Reporting


Even though September has begun we are still enjoying those last few days of summer fun and we wanted to know what do some of you do with your SL Summer?  Do you look for romance, seek out a new adventure like a role play sim, play some beach volleyball or simply sit in the sand enjoying the warmth of the sun? Or maybe you did all of the above and more…


Pamela Fishnet and Mimikrii are just a couple of people who like others, gather up your families and enjoy some wonderful quality time together.  For some our RL Summer time is about 2 or 3 months long and before you know it your children are starting High School or heading off to College.  Big changes ahead for your family, therefore making your summer full of activities that will be remembered for years to come is one of your most valuable treasures.  Check out Rasta sand – Surf, chill, have some ice cream at http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Mama%20Allpa/68/169/24.


While others are busy especially in the spring time with horses, dogs, and cats, having babies. BellaRuse58 enjoys racing horses, breeding them and in general enjoying the horse community.   You can check out her horses at Garifuna Stables & Market**ABC Horse and Pony Sales http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Pelican%20Cove/180/110/21.  This is a great way to teach children about animals and to learn responsibility, plus who doesn’t adore a furry little baby puppy, kitten and pony!

Lots of people love to gather around a bond fire or start heating up the outdoor grill to enjoy those summer treats like toasted marshmallows, bbq and adding their favorite liquor to ice tea or lemonade.  While enjoying each other’s company seems to be the first priority for everyone, swimming, hot tubs and waterfalls are a welcome reprieve from the heat of the sun.

Listening to music with friends and loved ones is another very popular past time in Second Life as some dance away as the sunsets other sit back just enjoying the moment is what FunkyGirl Neox does at Relax Club http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Lunar%20Sky/204/69/24.  People in SL love to listen to remixes from their favorite Dee Jay to hear a new spin on some old favorite tunes!  There are certainly all kinds of music in Second Life to explore and maybe even find a new favorite style of music.


While others get busy working on their SL business, putting together a beach and dance club area for all to enjoy like Pierre Balehawk of BNDC Club and Apartments http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Luissa/89/25/67.  Many of us decide to start up a business in SL and test the financial market waters of SL.  Which can be a precursor of starting up an RL business, as it’s a great way to learn how involved it may be to have your own company.


Exploring Second Life is what we all do, especially in the summer when beach sims popup and jungles arise, while others form their own Role-Play sim with like-minded individuals.  It is a great way to learn new things, meet new people and take some time off from RL especially if you don’t have time to go on an actual holiday.


Yes Second Life people love ”soaking up the virtual sun” like Love Trill of FabFree and taking the time to enjoy loved ones company at the beach, walking through a jungle and creating memories to cherish later on, just like your RL Summer activities!

Color Trends Summer 2014- CecilliaRosalie Reporting



Oh yeah it’s true Summer is in full swing! As fashion never gets old or boring I am here with hot suggestions for this season’s wardrobe. The popular summer colors I am seeing is Pastels and Neutrals!

ü  PASTELS/NEUTRALS:   
Designers take a modern twist on the traditional by pairing soft pastels with vivid brights to create a colorful equilibrium. Inspired by a mixture of blooming flowers, travels abroad and strong, confident women, designers use color to refresh, revive and defy conventional wisdom. The greatest thing above all is that because we are so accustomed to seeing them as nature's background, they can be creatively combined with any other color.

Meditate Away the Sizzling Stress of Summer

by Psychic Medium Linda Lauren
This article originally appeared in The Huffington Post


Meditating on Linda's Island ~ ETU Abbracciare
Summer can usher in a lot of commitments and meditation is a helpful way to set the tone for the coming months so we enjoy life rather than deal with stress. For the past four decades, I have been helping people to live better lives by teaching them techniques to help them handle stress through correct breathing. Many view meditation as a structured Eastern practice with rules for how it is done. This is true for people who practice within that belief system.

But what about the rest of us: the businessperson, parent, mate, friend, family member, who doesn't follow that philosophy but still wishes to create the awareness that meditation offers and reduce stress in their lives? How can they sizzle away stress as the seasons change?

Meditation is about being mindful of your spirit enough to focus inward for the serenity and guidance you need. It's having a moment to hear yourself think. We have the answers within us, and with a steady routine, we can harness a personal power that will remove much of the emotion that stress can cause. The only steadfast rule is slow breathing. Proper breathing is an advantage to handling life and health matters, and is especially helpful for dealing with overall stress. I have outlined a simple method of breathing to get you started so that anyone, at any age, can enjoy meditating.

  1. Make an appointment with yourself to go to a space you have designated where you will not be disturbed. Make those you live with aware that you are meditating.
  2. Wear clothing that is loose and comfortable, and choose a time of day/night that is conducive to you being able to observe the silence within. Play some soft instrumental music to help set the mood.
  3. Start by taking some slow, deep breaths, in through your nose and out through your mouth, just as slowly.
  4. Sit quietly and allow yourself to sense your surroundings. Don't worry about noise or distraction; that will change when you begin a regular routine.
  5. Follow the inhalation and exhalation of your breathing, using the timing of your breathing or your heartbeat as a marker to mindfulness.
Meditation time can range from 10 minutes to hours. Choose what you feel comfortable with. Once you adopt this practice in your life, you will be embracing a more peaceful existence. More things go right when we meditate than wrong!

Beach Wear for 2013- Tea Couturier Reporting...




With so many beach wear out there it can be hard to pick the right one or even know where to begin looking.

 I have looked around second life stores and little boutiques and created a list of a few pieces I feel not only appeal to budgets but still give you that summery look you are seeking.

SLE Guide to the top Recreational Water Sports Sites – Glossom Resident Reporting…



After a long Winter and rainy Spring, we all feel like going out on the streets as soon as the first rays of sunshine appear while craving for those long hot summer days. As temperatures soar there is nothing better than being surrounded by the refreshing sea water. Therefore, it’s time to say goodbye to the couch and start taking advantage of the energizing sun and of Second life’s excellent conditions for the practice of Water Sports.

Before bathing season started the SLE has sent its team of experts into the field to examine the water quality and beaches conditions and facilities. What comes next is the result of that thorough examination.

Here you will find some information on the various Water Sports available on four outstanding regions awarded with the SLE's blue flag.

School may be in session, the NFL has begun, the foliage is starting to turn here in New England, I had the heat on this morning, and I've taken my sweaters out of storage....

... but that doesn't mean that I'll let go of summer that easily..




Now that the kids are back in school, I have the free time needed to go to a water park. Here's one I found on SL, at The Cove Beach Live Music Venue.

Lanai's Diary Entry- 8/16/2010- Back From Vacation & Ready to Roll- Lanai Jarrico Reporting...

Lanai’s Diary- Back from vacation and ready to roll.
It has been a week full of adventure and a well needed rest but this time it was a bit different. I didn’t get SLE Withdrawals. Instead I actually had a pretty decent vacation while the SLE family held it down.
I began my week with some day hiking in the Stix and lasted all but 2 days due to a boom bangin headache I got from not taking my Dramamine before the excursion.
While I was there at “Split Rock Resort” I didn’t get to throw horseshoes but I at least played some bingo while tearing up some extra sloppy chicken wings. I Even summed up enough courage to take part in a Literature & The Arts Trivia going on in the Pit Lounge after hiking up to the “Famous’ Split Rock. I wasn’t any good at Bingo as I watch little kids winning left and right. Let’s just say I didn’t win any ‘turtle bucks” from the trivia either but my adventures didn’t end there.
I spent a little bit of energy closed up in an all white racquetball room for a good 20 minutes until I was about to pass out. I should have filled out a guest request for padded walls and complimentary ben gay. I’d feel much better because waking up from a day of all that, my left shoulder, arm, back and my neck were killing me....
