There's Something About Steelhead...

The photo below is from my first visit to Steelhead back in June. I had heard so many nice things about it from folks that I thought I would visit. I remember finding it a gorgeous, well-laid out SL vision of the U.S. Pacific Northwest. The thing that stood out to me the most was standing at the train station in the rain. I had never seen rain in SL before then and pulled out my parasol to watch it fall around me...I looked forward to visiting again, and every time that I did I always enjoyed myself. So much has changed since my first visit, but one thing hasn't: the folks there are laid back, genuinely nice, quirky, fun, and don't take themselves too seriously. It was, in a word...refreshing. It wasn't until Dr. Mason invited me to one of the town meetings that I realized what a community Steelhead is. Every Tuesday night town meeting I have been to since has been very well-attended by its citizens, and are absolutely hilarious. Anyone can drop in. I know I did and became a citizen that very night. By my next meeting, I found myself volunteering to become the new editor of the Anvil. I didn't know much about Steelhead then, but being there made me want to!

Actually, every friend that I have ever brought with me to one of Steelhead's themed Friday night parties has become a citizen as well. Some have even bought land in the new Harborside sim, which promises to be beautiful. There are only a few parcels left now--you should find out what that "something" is about Steelhead yourself...
