Finally Moving Ahead

The Second Pride meeting on Sunday was a joy to witness for a devoted member. Instead of the bickering and infighting that has characterized the previous meetings, the few members that had assembled, saw a board working constructively to deal with the issues at hand and even raise their eyes to look into the future.

Left to right: Jagger Naughton, Sutry Long, Marge Beaumont, Karl Kalchek,
Andy Long, Jak Calcutt, Hottie B LockJaw and Merrick Genesis

The second most huggable man in SecondLife Jak Calcutt (Build Director) was granted access to the Second Pride avatar for the remainder of this year. The step was taken to avoid unnecessary delays in building as the avatar holds all the landscaping material, textures and buildings etc. that are owned by the organisation. The board and the membership present were convinced that enough safeguards are in place.

Jaggy’s Co-chair for IT Director is Baz Ceawlin, Andy’s Co-chair for Secretary/Co-chair is Story Long, Sutry’s Co-chair for Security Director is Jordan Anderson, Marge’s Co-chair for SP Treasurer is Jynxx Beebe. Karl, Jak, Hottie B (the board member formerly known as Hotboy) and Merrick are still looking for suitable candidates.

GA WinterFest Today: The FIGB Benefit Party

Fire Island Gay Beach, RGF Estates and Master S&M Estates invite you to party with us to celebrate the Gay Archipelago Winter Festival 2013 at the festival main stage.
We have DJ Korvon Zaver Staheli spinning the tunes for you from 9am to 12pm SLT with host Coy Nolan who will be pleased to welcome you.

After the party we join the live performance of Jaynine Scarborough, sponsored by Essences & {S0NG} mainstores.

The donations and tips of the party will be forwarded to the Lefevre & Hernandoz Foundation for the Aids-Hilfe Essen e.V. as with previous events too.

I first misread this and thought that this event was at 9PM SLT and was sad to miss it, but now I know its at 9AM I most certainly will be there!

My sincere apologies to the organizers for the late publication.

The New Gazebo

After the ball at SP my lover Tomais took me to look at a gazebo. I fell in love with it immediately and have now set it up by the ice-skating area.

To get away from the cold we teleported to Tom's place, which is located at a milder latitude, and prepared our Holiday photo. I was able to follow part of the work-process when Tom shared his screen with me on Skype.

It had been a long day so Tom tucked me in and put me to bed around 2AM (my local time). There are a couple of noteworthy things in the picture below...
