Day 431: Romance Ice Skating

Winter is almost here! *shiver* Its time to find places for some wintery fun :)

When I saw Romance Ice Skating, I couldnt resist. The description reads, "Romance Ice Skating, Proposal & Roller Skating".

Hmm...Proposal?



If you dont have skates yet, stop by the shop for some free ice skates :)

Or you can pick skates, outfits, and related stuff. Check out the Skoopf combo with ice and roller skates!



And off I go on the ice :)



Dont forget to show off those tricks and jumps off the ramps ;P



And share some romantic moments on the ice...



Oh wow...they have Marriage Proposal poseballs!

I totally have to tell Blue Poseball about this! You know...just in case he ever needs the practice :)



Right downstairs is the Romance Roller Skate...

Hello, Blue darling? You absolutely have to come down here! Theres something I have to show you...

Hello? Blue? Are you there?



Heehee, this is so cool! An indoor roller skating disco!

Just look at my cool tricks :)

Day 429: Scarlett in Steelhead

Well, fiddle-dee-dee! What is wrong with this here so-called modern transportation?

First I was stranded in Arizona. Now the train breaks down in Steelhead of the Oregon territories.

What in carnations is an Oregon territory anyhow?



And what on earth are all these gadgetry? There is the devil's work afoot here, I tell you!

Must be that band of ne're-do-well Steampunks!



Wagons! I do declare! This place is crawling with Gypsies and Steampunks!

I best be getting along before they use me for some bizarre Oregon rituals!



Why, this is more like it for a lady like myself. Finally, some sign of proper civilization!



Oh my! A grand ballroom for a grand ball :)



Why does every town west of the Mississippi have a saloon?

And oh! Have they never heard of perfume?



What does that sign say? Um... "Dock Street"

"Gummy"..."Lane"?

"Gunfight Lane"! *Eeeek* *Run*



I do hope they fix that train soon so I can be on my way to San Francisco!

Hey look! Theres a lever in that weird looking house...


Steelhead is a themed residential sim, in the grand tradition of Caledon and Babbage. The theme is somewhat Western, but has a very definite Caledon influence :)

Everyone is welcome in Steelhead as long as you are courteous. There are weekly get-togethers and monthly balls. Just stop by and grab a Notecard at the saloon :)

So if you are looking to make a few friends or join in a great community, check out Steelhead City, Oregon. Click on Search, select Places, and enter "steelhead" as the keyword. The SLURL is Steelhead (90,252,25).



Umm...I didnt touch anything...honest! I have no idea how I ended up in this dungeon!

Oh my, where shall I go? What shall I do?

Inspire is a popular hangout and a meeting place.

There are poseballs all over the place for meditating or just relaxing in these comfy chairs :)

And its definitely a place to meet people. During busy SL times, it can be quite packed :)



The coolest things here are the "orbital" poseballs! You feel just like you are floating thru space. And there are orbital poseballs for couples too :)

Hmm...maybe I should take off my legs and put my fins back on :)



And of course, lots of areas for just sitting around watching the cute guys go by...

Umm...I meant checking out the sculpted prims... ;P



And like any good romantic spot, there are semi-private areas: Like your very own spaceship :)



And if you ever fall off the space platform, theres a wonderful beach below...



Along with a drive-in movie theater. Full of poseballs, of course ;P
