this morning i was the umdze and it was my first time leading the new long chants.
then i had lunch with karen, always fun!
home in time to go to Raglan Shire's annual talent show - fun even tho i could not always get the audio to work. i took no pictures, but i am sure there are hundreds posted by now!
then to Show and Tell in second life, my sunday ritual. Barney and Flo have organized and hosted it for i think 6 years. i've been going for almost 5 years. this was the last one! they want their sundays back after all this time. very sad...i will miss being at the forefront of creativity and with the funnest audience anywhere!
and then...Gianfar Peaks sims invited all dragons, & dracophiles, of whatever breed, genre, world, age or style, to a memorial service for Anne McCaffrey, beloved author of the Dragonriders of Pern stories, who passed away last week.
held at the Weyr Bowl at Shaula Weyr, dragons of all sizes, and other avatars of every stripe gathered to keen, as is the tradition in Pern. it was heartbreaking and perfect. i did manage to take some crummy pictures of this awesome tribute: (click for youtube to see bigger)
