Valentine Town and Mardi Gras Town, by Laura LIberty, Now Open

Visit Valentine Town here: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Townies/128/128/2

I started at Valentine Town with a ride through the tunnel of love.  Then I got sidetracked wanting to show it off to friends as it was a really cool ride. I took pics below so you can see it's fairly long, smooth and has a variety of sections that are all super well done.  I then entered into the main center of the town where there is a big scenic dancing area  and two sides of cool buildings filled with all things Valentines day from decorations, to props, to furniture, to clothes and costumes, to foods, to poses, to gifts, etc on sale for Valentines day.There are even two love lock walls where a person can purchase a lock and have it inscribed with their names or little message for that special someone that is locked on to one of two love lock trellis walls with a commemorative copy going to the couple who purchased it.   It's a great explore, fun ride and sim, and great seasonal shopping. Laura is known for her annual seasonal towns and you can join her subscribo or group for townies to stay on top of their openings.  I like to go early and then repeatedly go back taking friends.  This is a must see Valentine sim.

Next I entered Laura's Mardi Gras Town, also just opened for the season. Valentine and Mardi Gras Towns have direct TP boards to each other.  It also is loaded with fun seasonal products including decor, gifts, props, awesome masks, clothes and costumes etc. too.  I took more pics for you to see. It's a riot of colors.  There are freebie fun hoola hoops and dancing area.  It's just opened so I was able to see it without a lot of avs around however her towns get a ton of traffic typically, so go early, go often, and support her as she is great about providing these fun places year after year.  Enjoy!
 

And I even caught a pic of Laura.. shes a super sweet person and I remember years and years ago she came out and played with us in Easter town in the peep races and different things. She usually says hello and is very friendly. I always appreciate her fun free toys and that she makes great sims for us all to enjoy. One of the great people who make my SL go round.

Loose Nuts SL Love is Strange Party Tonight 5-8 pm SLT Sat, and Sunday Too!

Loose Nuts.  Visit here: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Tipping%20Point/162/99/107

On a tip from my friend Greg Parker I ran over to check out Loose Nuts, at Nut's Landing.  This is a rotating party/dance sim owned by Delia Claremont with builds by her and DJ Dune (Dunerunner), Pross (prosperine2), and Hepburn.  I happened to catch their Mardi Gras build before the party and took a few pics then came back while Dune was putting some finishing touches on the "SL Love is Strange"  or sort of a Out of This World anti-Valentines day Valentines party build where there will be a party open to the public tonight from 5-8pm SLT, then 5-8 Saturday and again Sunday, Valentines day from 4:30-7:30pm SLT.  

Ok, I must emphasize here that this place is very cool and not your average party or club time dance area.  They make these builds and boy do they make them.  The pictures do not do them justice.  They have an amazing fully immersive look and feel to them, with vignette areas to play and interact, photo booths and photo ops, games, fun things to see and do and they are fully decorated and surrounded.  Apparently they have these themed rotating events regularly and do new builds for them along with having a consistent club on the ground and a current winter barn area too.  These are great explores and photo opportunities too. Hint: look for hidden areas too!  Hope to see you there!

The Night Theater in Second Life, My Heart Goes Boom

Visit here: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/ExtravaDanza/128/128/26


Today I was able to visit The Night Theater's "My Heart Goes Boom" show, one of their 3 special shows for Valentine's.  The next and last of this production will be shown 2-21-15 at noon and midnight.  Costumes, sets, concepts, and dances are produced by Aelva, Martty Gehter, Jaicya, and JenzZa Misfit.   I thoroughly enjoyed it all and especially love how props and particles and things engage the audience and are not restrained just to the stage.  My videos have been very pixilated lately and figured this might be a good chance to see how its working with dance, but not a lot of fast other movement and it seems it turned out ok.  I only have bits of 4 routines so missed some really good parts, but go visit their last two shows for some fun and the rest of it up close and personal.
