Memorial Park Update
I spent a fair bit of time yesterday adding to the Lydia Rose Memorial Park in Second Life. I cleared some of the land and added:
- a swing set with 4 swings
- a teeter-totter with a tulip theme (I'll have to post pics ... totally forgot about it)
- butterflies -- lots of butterflies
- an info station so people can gather notecards and Weblinks to learn about Lydia Rose and her ailment
Not sure where the idea to put in park toys came from, but I think it was "inspired," if you get my drift. I probably won't add other big elements, though who knows? Kala suggested a carousel, but I haven't found one that I really like. One goal is to refine the cows on the lot then find a way for them to wander the property autonomously. I have a emu-like bird that will wander, but only if there are fences. The info station needs some updates and a sign, but that won't be a problem. I'll get that done tonight.
One of my neighbors dropped by last night before I signed off and said he liked the park, but during our conversation I got the distinct impression he doesn't like "furries" - non-human avatars (AVs). He actually "eek"ed when I turned into the cute orange baby Pegasus AV I have. Part of me wanted to point out that he had bright pink hair and was wearing yellow socks, black dress shoes, cargo shorts, and a t-shirt.
Well, to each his own. Check back for more park updates. Or if you have SL, click on the park link above and visit.
