Your hosts, Freda Frostbite and Heximer Thane will provide the dances and join you in conversation and celebration. Are we celebrating the end of one decade or the beginning of another?

The landing pad at Belle Terre.  Walk through the blam gates or click the events board to get to our many destinations.   grid.kitely.com:8002:Belle Terre   My readers may or may not have noticed I recently took a long break from this blog and from virtual worlds.  I needed the time off to deal with some very real first life health issues and to realize how very much I miss creating beauty, art, and community in virtual worlds when I am not in them.  A couple months ago, I quietly made my return and started building Belle Terre, Hex and my new home in Kitely.  Recently,  I've begun hosting and performing events in the metaverse, almost all in Opensim. What's the same as it always was?  Well, for starters, my husband in all worlds, Heximer Thane, is with me in this new venture.  He's building a bit in Kitely, too, and he is often onhand to help me host events and to cheer me on when I perform.  Of course, I'm still a virtual clot...
