Change...

Whether through no fault of our own or of our own choosing, change does happen. Things that are familiar to our lives in here surprise us with the fierceness of the memories we attach to them. Today, I sold my first land in Caledon to my neighbor Mr Melnik. I enjoyed tweaking this little plot, adding things and having fun with it. Riding Flashy from it across the nation. Target practice in the backyard. Just sitting on the ground in the back talking with Puck. Tea with Eds in the carriage house. It being set afire during the great Mayfair Alien Invasion for RFL. Using it as my home when the servers were so bad I couldn't log in anywhere else. I loved this little parcel. I will still be maintaining my store in Regency and as a Messmer, we have land in Mayfair and Penzance, but I remember my great joy and excitement upon purchasing this parcel and while sorry to let it go, change happens...
There is no need for me to speak any more upon the utter pain and anger that so many of the peerage in Caledon have felt upon the losses of their openspace duchy sims. To choose to leave is one thing, but to be forced to is another. To say that our community has not been irrevocably altered by this particular change would be a lie on my part. Tonight, I attended the last event--a holiday ball--at the duchy of Loch Avie. As I twirled through the snow with Lunar, I thought once again about how you become familiar with a place, and there is a comfort in that, even in here. Your Grace, thank you for the lovely things you have done for the Caledon community and Loch Avie will be truly missed.

Tinies Fashion Show at the Loch

I put on the tiny version of my Regency RedGold dress and went to Loch Avie for the RFL Tinies Fashion show. You can see Mr . D. Hax in the background as a ferret wearing my Tiny Thom waistcoat ensemble...That infernal minion Mr Quan made an appearance, but for a good cause for once. He wore his hypnotic device in an effort to get others to donate...
Which led to a promise that if attendees donated 1000L$ Mr Peccable would dress up like a dark-haired Amazon princess and try to take him down!
And like all fashion shows, this one ended with Miss Discovolante as the lovely bride in one of her designs tossing out tiny bouquets...

Loch Avie Ceilidh & Cape Messmer Vernes Display

I put on my Caledon tartan gown that I whipped up and attended the Ceilidh at Loch Avie...There was a very nice turnout as we all danced...
But I was in a "mood" and decided to leave early to quietly work on my project at Cape Messmer in Morgaine. I have created a Vernes "From the Earth to the Moon" display and created a replica of the Melies space capsule. Do visit it and step inside! There is so much more to come!

St. Andrews Day Events in Loch Avie

Today Caledon celebrated St Andrews Day in Loch Avie. That confounded Mr. Matova managed to pounce me during practice for the caber toss!There was a very good turnout and the Duke Regent Kintyre claimed the trophy...
Even George the wild haggis came out to watch!
Later, there was a tournament of champions in the sky arena with the duchies of Loch Avie (Col. O'Toole), Carntaigh (Lord Primbroke), Murdann (Lady Dia), Cymru (Lord Vid) and Kintyre (who was represented by a skilled drow fighter by the name of Alex Fitzsimmons) competing. The finals came down to Murdann and Kintyre...
With Kintyre winning the tourney. They were well-fought battles indeed!
