Jack Frost nipping at your nose

One of my very favorite things in life is the warmth of the sun. Sunshine and gloriously warm days fill my heart with gladness and I think really contribute to my overall positive outlook on life.

When winter approaches, my heart fills with dread. I don't like the cold and I don't like dealing with snow. I don't like being all bundled up and shivering. And I think winter is at LEAST twice as long as is necessary.

However, that being said, when winter comes to Second Life New England, I have to admit it is a beautiful sight. At least I don't have to worry about shoveling this snow and although looking at it actually makes the real life me feel colder, its all in my imagination...isn't it?

I am participating in the estate wide winter scene in SLNE. I have removed my pretty flower garden (relunctantly!!) and changed the trees to bare branches. There is snow on the ground and the pond has frozen over. It will make a nice little ice skating rink for those who are so inclined. My roof has snow on it and a snowman has been made.

My sim is open to anyone to come explore and enjoy. There is a nice beach for relaxing and watching the sunrise. There are paths to explore and romantic dancing in the gazebo or on the frozen pond.

I'm hoping for an early Spring...so come enjoy my little winter wonderland while its still around. I'm already dreaming of the warm sun to return.  :)


The pond has iced over. brrrr

A snowman resides in front of the garden. I can't wait for the return of flowers in the Spring!


The roof of the house is snow laden.


Water flows from the waterfall onto the frozen pond.
