Today I visited REZ. I had seen a few posts from some Flickr friends,
and had heard about this sim before, but hadn't visited until now. It's
a very sparse, broken down, familiar (American), beautiful place.
Broken railroad tracks, old whilrly gigs, abandoned wheelchairs just
lay scattered here, for no real apparent reason. The colors, texture,
and scenery really create a unique location. There is the suspicion
that REZ is going to be short-lived due to the changes in Linden Lab's
policy on Open Space Sims. This is only what I hear from people around

Have you ever just wanted somewhere quiet to visit and let the snow fall around you and just stare into the white forest? Hollow Forest is just that place then! I stumbled across this beautiful sim earlier this week,and found there to be some really nice architechture and builds, but mostly was just impressed with the winter scenery, animals, hills and the church building. Sometimes it's just nice to have a peaceful place to take in your day and prepare for your night! This is a lovely spot to take pictures if you're needing a winter backdrop.

When I first landed at Isle of Tarasso, I thought I had the wrong LM, then things started appearing for me. Beautiful sculpted trees, flying question marks and exclaimation points. I IM'd the sim owner, Perefim Cao (also owner of OMFG, Steam Punk gear), to talk to him about the sim. As I wandered I clicked a notecard giver. The Isle of Tarasso is in existence for a great reason! I am going to paste the entire notecard into the post here, because I cannot state it any better or differently!

Tarasso is a Greek word meaning confusion, to take away calmness of mind, disturb equanimity, to disquiet, to make restless.

Ding-Dong the Wtich is Dead! I landed at Magic of Oz, at Draxtor Despres’ advice, and was right there on the Yellow Brick Road! I had the choice to go to Emerald City, the Witch's Castle or Munchkin Land. Since Dorothy started in Munchkin Land, I figured it would be appropriate to go there myself (feeling strangely dressed for such a wonderful place..but I haven't any blue gingham dresses in my inventory!!)

I went looking for Halloween decorations. What I found was a treasure before my eyes. Falln Amusements /FallnAngel Creations Furniture Shop  is art, decor, amusement park, labyrinth all in a twisted manner. The amusement park is rusty, falling apart, yet you find yourself searching for more of it once you've been through it all. Everything is for sale in this sim. It's a store, but done in the fashion of entertainment! The bumper cars and the carousel are also not to be missed.

Unsure about the upcoming United States Presidential Election? Not familiar with the issues? Don't know where you'd stand in regards to a particular issue? Follow today's LM of the Day, Capitol Hill, and learn all about each party's stance, see a video, and read the major legislation in regards to six major issues: Energy Independence, Minimum Wage, Stem Cell Research, Health Care, National Security, can College Costs.

"Every year since 2005, Octoberville has topped the charts with SL's largest Halloween playground with lots of fun and prizes including haunted house, maze, autumn forest with marshmallow roasting and ghost stories, haunted train ride, and SL's largest scavenger Hunt and LOTS more! Come trick-or-treat at Octoberville!" This line taken from the group, Octoberville, couldn't say it better. Beginning its 4th Halloween season, Octoberville has some new things up it's sleeve this year. I sat down with one of the creators, Master Kaos, and asked him a few questions for you. Enjoy the conversation, I know I did. But most importantly, get over to Octoberville, pick up your sleuth notecbook, and begin your Octoberville journey!

Whether you're looking for solitude or would like to explore another romantic place with that special someone, Tempura Island is the place to go. Some of the most rich textures I've seen in one sim in a long time are here. The grand building is spectacular as are the gardens and surrounding woods. There are many nooks and crannies to find a secluded spot for two, or you can gaze at the beautiful sunset alone and ponder your SLife! Truly a beautiful place to see!

I know this is not the most eloquent write up, but the pictures speak volumes!
