Visit the Kippies Jazz Club on the Africa sim to learn about the story of Kippie Moeketsi - father of South African jazz - and his club "Kippies" in Johannesburg that became the place to go for those interested in SA jazz.

Click the images on the wall to learn about some of the artists - and turn on stream to listen to the ever growing collection of jazz vibes from the Southern tip of Africa.

Middle Earth and Middle Earth II are Medieval Role Playing Regions for Hobbits and Elves. Connected my a short boat ride. Hobbiton and Rivendell are RP regions on Trianon World. They are built to resemble the Hobbit and Elven locations in the Hobbit and Lord of the Rings. Our RP and characters are loosely based on those books in the Second Age. A knowledge of Tolkien books is a plus, but not necessary.

Over the next two days (Wednesday and Thursday, March 22 & 23, our server host will be doing some work on our server.

This will result in some down time for our grid.

Barefoot Dreamers Grid will definitely be offline for at least a couple of hours on Thursday, and we are not sure if it will be affected on Wednesday.

Please do not do any major work on your regions, as we have no way to do backups of regions or load OARs from these days.

We appreciate your patience during the next couple of days and hope for minimal impact.

Gabe, Huga & Rayne

The latest addition to Star Jinn Palisade Mall's "Urban" builds. Gram Z's "Amish-Country Barn". It includes sliding barn doors, dual silos, ladder climbers, and lots of room for imagination in your farm build. Come explore all of the builds and products in our mall for original content. Blessings and much love, Lavia.

Regarding the drama and debate of issues that really do fill up the front page with piles of horseshit and sauerkraut, I am hoping the constipated, confused, uneducated and self-righteous can simply take it all to private messages.

It absolutely does not benefit the software, community or potential prospects that have considered making the switch from SlimeyLife Libtard Labs to Open Sim and it's abundant community. All this crap does is clutter the front page and leaves people discouraged, confused and disenchanted. We get enough of that crap from the militant uneducated media. Let's at least keep THIS place honest and pleasurable to visit. Got it? Great!

So I am hoping that in the future, a lesson can be learned from this ordeal. Until then, If I'm not back in 5 minutes, just wait longer.

Thank you @CuteulalaArtis I appreciated the help today setting up your excellent red coaster on our Catena di isole beach. Please stop by anytime and ride this great coaster it is thrilling! You have a great view riding it with nice photo opportunities!

Our beautiful Star Jinn Palisade Mall! It's not got as much as we'd like, but very nearly all of what you see on display are our original builds created with the open sim community in mind. Come and visit and explore a mall with a unique touch and design - all outdoor except the specialty shops. Our featured shops are GramZ's Country Creations, Star Ravenhurst Designs (She has a specialty shop and large section of buildings that are a must see), Fall's For You specialty shop of unique avatars, youth avatars and clothing, cleaned up and presented by our own Dusty Falls. Buildings that are "Thor" built and much more. It's best to explore the entire mall (region) rather than just stand at the welcome point and cam. C'mon, enjoy the journey, who knows you may just find something you really like. Everything is CMT and free for you. Blessings and much love, Lavia

A friend asked me if I had a tree bench, you know the kind that circles a tree so you can relax in the shade? Well no I didn't have one so I built one, complete with sits enough for 8 people. Great serviceable décor for around your favorite shade tree. You can find it here at the mall and it's free and full perm. Blessings and much love, Lavia.

"Listen...perhaps you catch a hint of an ancient state of being not quite forgotten; dim, perhaps, and yet not altogether unfamiliar, like a song whose name is long forgotten, and the circumstances in which you heard it completely unremembered. Not the whole song has stayed with you, but just a little wisp of melody, not attached to any person, place, or anything particular. But you remember, from just this little part, how lovely was the song, how wonderful the setting where you heard it, and how you loved those who were there and listened with you.

Here is the memory of what you are.

You know the ancient song, and know it well. Nothing will ever be as dear to you as is this ancient hymn of love you still sing."

I added a shop to the Catena di Isole Freebie Mall "Classic Closet". I have decided to wear the default-system-classic avatar and in doing so I decided to create clothes to wear and give what I create freely. I will also give out Fate Mesh clothing that I have textured with a texture-changing script giving you multiple choices. The clothing fits Classic Avatar wearing Alphas old school but I am diggin' it! Thank you Jamie Anna Wright for the inspiration. You can find the clothing store here virtual-hg.com:8002/Catena%20di%20isole/397/288/32 I have a bit of lingerie and hosiery too~

Für flotte Beats sorgt der kölner Party-DJ Rico.

On Friday, 03.02.2023 it's "Alaaf" and "Helau" in the Moonrose Club! The 5th season has begun and we take this as an opportunity to properly let out the sow!

The party DJ Rico from Cologne will provide the lively beats. He has the greatest carnival hits from the current and past seasons in his luggage and of course also the best from rock, charts and your music wishes! Snappy sayings and his cheeky snout are an absolute must for a carnival party. Let us surprise you.

Costumes are welcome but of course not a must.

Everyone who comes in costume has free entry, all others come in for free ;-)

We are looking forward to you and a great party with good mood and lots of fun!

I finally came up with something I could use these textures on. Executioner's Pavilion. It isn't easy to photograph and probably looks better in person. When you walk in drums start pounding with a script that starts it up when you get close, so they aren't going all the time. Things are coming along...
