Surfing with Lissa

Ok so I know it's been a while but I'm back and feeling so much better after kicking that nasty sinus infection in the tail! What better way to celebrate feeling good then surfing? Really, give me one better way. Can't do it can ya? Ok then, moving on! I have some sweet spots to tell you all about this week!


Need a massive wave fix? Casa De Laville home of the Black Sheep Surfing Association and Nash Laville, is running no less than 12 waves from 3 of the wave creators! Grabbing a board and riding this set is not only exhausting but exlierating as well! While taking a break from hitting the muliple waves, check out the lighthouse or the many quiet spots to sit and contemplate life. If you need to get out of the sun, check out the grotto below the shoreline. http://slurl.com/secondlife/Zug/104/64/22

SoH Beach: Riders for a Cure Home sim created by Socks Clawtooth in the style of the Hope Beach from Relay for Life 2009. The pier is back as is the museum and vendors to buy goodies from with all proceeds going to the American Cancer Society. Dual waves run alongside the pier just begging to be ridden between the posts..can you make it? I dare ya!
Til there is a cure, we relay!

Blackbird

I recently sat down with Merrick Genesis, the creator and owner of Blackbird (http://slurl.com/secondlife/Rockhopper%20City%201/168/102/400). At Blackbird, named for the Beatles song, you will find many great pieces to personalize your secondlife home and the best part is the low prims! Many pieces are sculpted and done with great creativity!

While visiting the store I was just in time to win a great stool on one of the two lucky chairs and also found some mini mania boards, a bidbox, and dollarbies for those always looking for great deals on the cheap. Oh, did I mention a 7Seas Fishing area upstairs with amazing custom fish punned with....you guessed it, Beatles themes. You will find some of my favorite pieces from his shop below!

This pretty set will have you curled up with a good book, and at only 30 prims is easy on the prim budget! The pillows also are texture changing so you can switch from the sweet Easter theme to others.
20 sit animations, 5 cuddles, transferable so great gift idea and at only $199L a steal!




This cozy cloth covered bench gives you extra
seating room with 6 sitting animations and only adds 8 prims to the mix! This bench comes in several styles and options so sure to find one that matches your lifestyle at just $100L



We all need a great stool to sit and rest a moment and with a calming plant and book what better way to sneak in a break? This stool comes with 4 animations and 12 prims and copy-able too so get busy creating those quiet lil spots for a sweet $200L!


My personal favorite is a very sweet lil stepladder to while away time reading when I really should be sweeping out all the sand and sex wax that gets dragged in every day. This little cutie is only 10 prims and $150L makes this perfect!

Mari's Mailbag: I Need to Thank You

Just recently had the wind completely knocked out of me and landed in the hospital. Fortuantely things worked ok but I am here to tell you ...that was as real as it gets.
It reminded me of all of you that mean so much to me and I spent time reflecting about you then and it helped me to recover.
All the smiles SL and the surfing community has given me warmed my heart. I want to thank you for that and to also remind you all...just how quickly our lives can change, so its of vital importance to not put off what needs to be done today. Also very important to remind the people who are so dear to you just what they mean to you. Thanks for all you do...everybody xx
