Here it is Tuesday, and I still feel like I’m processing everything that happened last week. There’s Hair Fair 2008 of course, which I mentioned a bit in my last post. All kinds of good stuff happening there with lots of money being raised for Locks of Love.

This weekend was also the opening of the Wetherbee Gallery, featuring sculpture from Wolf Hartnell and sculpture and SL photography from Teal Freenote. There were so many tinies present at the opening that I actually changed into my tiny polar bear for the first time in public, and the time I spent there was a blast with the chat window just zooming by with everyone talking.

I had to leave that a little early to make my way to the grand reopening of Winterfell. The Winterfell Palace is no more and in its place is Taure En Lor, a beautiful gathering spot that one might describe as elvish steampunk. All I know is that it’s pretty and a wonderful spot for big parties like the one we had this weekend!

As the Winterfell party was winding down, Kavar mentioned that he was looking for something to do to unwind after all the hair fair madness, so we decided to go exploring and take photos. Of course with us that starts with an hour of trying to decide what to wear as we throw on this shirt that reminds us of those pants that leads to that hair that leads to this other shirt that… Well you get the idea. That’s half the fun of hanging out though, so it’s all good. Once we were finally on our way, we ended up in Templum ex Obscurum and then Tempura Island for just a bit before changing yet again to catch the art gallery show of one of Kavar’s friends, Gwen Carillon.

During most of this time, I’d also been talking with Kere about some building he was doing and assumed that he was working at Ivy Falls. Nope! It turned out that he’d been building an absolutely amazing underwater forum in Winterfell Sonnet! It was such a surprise, and I seriously love it. I hate that there’s a bug with high-res snapshots to disk not showing the glow so that I can’t show it off to everyone. By the way, I’d love for you to all vote on that one in JIRA here. I’ll have to get some more photos of it without the high res snapshots enabled so that you can really see how gorgeous it is.

Then on top of all that, Kavar made this great rocker hairstyle for the guys with dreads and a texture-changing cap, and I loved the textures so much that I swiped the dreads for myself and begged for a girls style using the textures. This morning I signed in to see City Chic all finished, and it has even more great textures for the hat. I’m totally in love. I put it on my head, finally picked one of the textures to stick with for a bit, changed clothes to match, and then ran off to snap photos. It will be at Exile soon!
