Our multi-tallanted Estate Manager, Aslyn Dufaux has created one of those special little places in Second Life. You know the type… A little hidden corner of the grid that brings a smile to your face and reminds you of the magic of Second Life. Her little spot is the Winter Wonderland of the bel Niche.
She’s invited all of our residents here in the bel estate to bring their friends and family to enjoy ice skating, snowball throwing, dancing on the frozen pond and a cozy chat in the cabin. The BLIZZARD of a snowfall needs special mention as well. I mean it’s SNOWING like a Northern Michigan storm out there… All of these festivities can be found here at around 700m up in the air 
Stop by to stay for a while or just pop in to see the amazing snow! You can play around with the sun a bit, too. Sunset and midnight look the best. You can force Sunset and most importnatly midnight by going to: World>Environment Settings to choose your time of day. Try it today!

Not just picture perfect... go throw some snowballs :)

It's even prettier in-wold
Just LOOK at that snowfall...
SNOW!
P.S. If you’ve created your own winter-themed place that you would like others to come see and enjoy, you can IM the SLURL to Lefty or Aslyn and we can start a public list ont he blog.

We would like to start gathering input from our residents about the creation of some public spaces here and around the bel Niche Estate. We’re putting the finishing touches on a little public beach in the bel Cove region and would like to design at least one, possibly two more spaces for gatherings and plain ol’ hanging out. If you have any ideas, locations, themes etc. that you would like to see implemented anywhere in the estate, feel free to post them below. After a few days of discussion we can start building your ideas.
As always, IM Lefty Belvedere anytime about anything!

The Autumn season here in the Northern Hemisphere is the perfect time to refresh the topic of public space in the Belvedere Estates as colder weather brings a new flood of neighbors.
Our estates are setup in a fashion which allows for small spaces to exist in-between plots. Having this “greenspace” between you and your neighbor is a luxury that everyone should enjoy in their virtual lives. Not only do they serve as little buffers for personal space, they also present miniature opportunities for decorating and designing for those so inclined.
As resident, you are completely free to add trees, flowers, and all sorts of appropriate props and decorations which you feel will look great between your neighbor’s plot and your own. Think of these little strips of land as a chance to invest in the community and perhaps get to know your neighbors.
Our estates are planned around an object (”prim”) system with prims set aside for residents to use as they wish. In short: The objects that you place into the greenspaces around your plot will be free of charge and almost always without limits. If it looks nice and isn’t too prim-heavy (in the hundreds) we are happy to accommodate your creations on public land!
As you take advantage of this idea of sharing spaces with neighbors, you will begin to notice that you feel comfortable hanging out in these public spaces and might find yourself mingling with like-minded people. If bumping into new people happens at your own leisure and perhaps when you least expect you might find yourself enjoying your time here… isn’t that what the metaverse is all about?
All too often, the metaverse fragments itself into one of two extremes. A resident can sometimes feel lost in space and surrounded by empty landscape devoid of life. This is usually the case when estates or mainland is parceled too largely. The opposite is true of space that is parceled too tightly and without regard to the lay of the land. In either case, who your nice neighbors will always seem to be in the way.
Hopefully, by maintaining our greenspaces in a community effort, we will avoid this. After all, your time spent in a virtual world should be a few degrees better than your time in the real world.
