The Sea Gypsy Habitat

My latest build is a one-room modern home suitable for all terrain.

It is only 20 land impact and 20 by 10.

You can fit the living, dining and bedroom all in one room and if you really, really want to, you can also add a small kitchen too.

The livingarea.

The bedroom area. I'm using mostly DRD Boho and some Noctis furnitures in these pictures.

This house is now available for 69L at my in-world store and the Marketplace. Please see the demo at my in-world store.

My Stable

The size of my horse herd have grown big and my little parcel is now a stable! Not a surprise.

And with that, I have made a proper stable for them. And so, B&W(as in Blue & White) Open Horse Stables was built.

I made the B&W Open Horse Stables specifically for my ABC horses. First came Stable1 which I tried my best to keep it low prim and 22 prims was the lowest I could go without compromising on it's style. Then I realised that I also needed a small place for my avatar. Thus came the small room above Stable2 which can also be an office.

I've included a rezzer for both stables combined but not for each individual stable.

Each stable has a 32x10 base. They are modifiable, copiable and no transfer. Some scripts are no mod.

The B&W Open Horse Stables is now available for 189L at my in-world store and the Marketplace. Please see the demo of the stables at my in-world store.

a little farm by the sea

My mares have been giving birth left right and centre.

Here is my dapple gray Orlov Trotter mare with her French Trotter foal. I really wanted a Baskir Curly like his dad standing next to him but it was not to be.

Then my Gypsy Vanner gave birth to a little mare just like her while my white Camargue gave me a Westphalian with the 2016 anniversary costume coat. I think it's cool that they can pass their costumes.

As is the case with my little Exmoor pony wearing a Farmer Bay costume coat.

I've had to use my shop parcel to keep some of my extra horses and ponies and after leaving them out in the sun for some time, I've made a little shack for them and added extras like the puppies from Jian and the hay wagon setup the Summer Farm Scene in the picture below for only 50L from Simply Shelby at Melville's California Dreamin which opens till August 20. It also came with a pair of cows which I edited out. There are a whole lot of other 50L and 50% off setups on sale there. So hurry!


Above is part of the California Dreamin scenery.

And finally, Moon is wearing the latest pants from COCO which you can get at the Knot & Co. She is also wearing an old Truth hair. As usual, she has on the Monica skin From Deetalez and the Lelutka Simone Bento Head together with the Maitreya Lara Mesh Body.

a little bit Country

My little parcel is now a little ranch. The horses have out numbered the cats and the dogs. This month the Liaison Collaborative has gone Country Chic and while I was there, I bought the Dakota Bandana Top and Jacket from GO! so is the pose by [evoLove]. The hair and hat is from Argrace and the jeans from JustBecause.

Most of my kitties are now over 120 days old and no longer breedable except for the remaining 2 pairs of Toyger Tans Kittycats. Above is another pose by [evoLove] and Moon is wearing Undone Top by Neve from the same event. The hair is from Diva! and the necklace from Maxi Gossamer.

And Jinx has a texture Hud for your Water Horse Bento Riding Horse out at the Liaison Collaborative called Country Mane where the horse's mane is plaited into a diamond-shaped net. You also get to add daisies on the plaited mane and the forelock.

Pretty don't you think? In the 2 picture above, Moon is wearing the very lovely flower head accessory called Bagatiba by LODE at this month's Chapter Four. This is a Gacha item. The hair is from LittleBones and the dress is from Schadenfreude.

Here's a close-up:
I'm using eyes from Mesange, Monica skin from Deetalez, Lelutka Simone Bento Head, BentBox Sylvan Bento Ears and Maitreya Lara Mesh Body.

Jackie Maine

Today is all about Jackie Maine.

I am so enamored of Jackie Maine, my bento riding Water Horse. She has a closet full of 'dresses' and Jinx has given a free flower 'dress' for the bento riding horse at the Water Horse Creator Fair. This 'dress' is actually from a HUD and if you've bought her other Fantasy Horse Markings, you'll be able to use this free HUD. For a clearer picture of this free Flower Power HUD, check out her flickr.

These pictures were taken at the Calas Galadhon sims. There is even a rideable demo of the bento riding horse and you can try it here.

Water Horse is also celebrating their Riding Horse with a kick-off party and I was there for a while with a whole lot of other horse lovers. I didn't stay long because I also wanted to see the ABC horse racing which was going on at the same time. I didn't know there were horse racings in SL eventhough I've been in SL a long time.

The horses and jockeys flew past me.

There were 2 races. This one was a steeplechase. I had to google. Wiki defines steeplechase as a distance horse race in which competitors are required to jump diverse fence and ditch obstacles. Ok I copy pasted that. All this while I thought it meant the horse was chasing something O.O

Wish You were Here


There were 2 reasons I braved the lag to go to this month's Gacha Garden. One was the Wish You Were Here pose set from Nantra and the other was the French Bulldog Fun in the Sun Frenchies by Jian. I wanted a companion dog which I could walk around with and I won her on the second try. The little Pug beside Moon is another companion dog by Jian I found at a flea market a while back.

Moon is also wearing the latest free group gift from COCO and the recent FLF heart necklace from Maxi Gossamer. I am a sucker for heart pendants.


Did I mention that my desktop died a month ago and I've been on a laptop since then? Which is why I haven't been building. I had ordered a new desktop but I messed up on the graphic card. My son usually does these tech things for me but since he migrated leaving us girls, I've had to figure these things with my also clueless daughters. I actually succeeded in dismantling the out of date graphic card but when I tried to install another graphic card, I found out that it was too big.... So, now I have to go find a graphic card. I might just lug the darn desktop to the shop and just ask them to fit an updated version.

Anyway, not building means I get more time to just explore SL and do shopping and spent more time with my virtual animals.

I got girls for my second round of foals. Above is a Black Percheron. She's already 6 days old

My Gypsy Vanner gave me a Piebald Gypsy Vanner filly.

My Timor Bay Pony gave birth to an Australian Pony lass. She's the chestnut coloured Pony.

And my Percheron gave birth to an Australian Stock Horse! She's another chestnut.
