Dolma's Garden

 Our second stop this week, after the traditional Halloween hunt with Ange and Nani, we headed off to a small grid by Dolma Dollinger. Dressed in red and looking a little like a superheroine, Dolma  were on hand to meet us, with friend Kiriko Kiama.

Dolma and Kiriko

Dolma Dollinger: Welcome everyone!
Nara Nook: Thirza is rounding everyone up

Kiriko Kiama: herding cats
Thirza Ember: i have bad internet tonight, apologies when I'm slow, about 4 more were still coming when I left osgrid

Lavia LLavine: I love these swans!!! They're beautiful
Forest Azure : /me wonders if these swans are as protective as rl swans
Dolma Dollinger: You get very wet if you try the swans. They are from Zweet Zurroundingz
Kiriko Kiama: that's probably the dutchiest name ever

Butch Safari

This week, the Safari was in the business of raising Male Avatar Awareness. 

Even with the latest shopping survey on Hypergrid Business, finding what you need to create a look in OpenSim is always a challenge, and menswear is the toughest category of all to locate. 

Skins, shapes and clothes are all tricky. Shapes often give that gorilla look, shoes have traditionally been way too big and clunky, and hair varies wildly from super effeminate to frankly monstrous. If you don't believe me girls, then just go out there and try putting together a look you can live with. No wonder many men give up and go girly, or furry, or simply wear the same tee shirt and jeans for about ten years... I found this Shrek skin and shape at Lani Mall in Jorink Devin's shop... definitely a boy thing.
This week, the Safari goers were challenged to wear a male avatar and walk a mile in those moccasins (or steel toed boots, whatever) and we went out across the HG to sample the state of Male shoppingness for ourselves.

Schreck Thirza

Our first stop was on Bubblesz Grid, which is the small hg enabled grid of mesh enthusiast Taarna Welles.
