Joan catches her breath at the end of an afternoon clearing the hay meadow.

Fairhaven is a strictly historical region set in 1557 Somerset in Tudor England. As I get ready to go back to school, my region is much more sparse than I'd hoped it would be, but I've learned so much this summer -- what an experience! I'll keep working on small pieces of it between lesson planning and grading papers.

As far as hobbies go, this is way better, if only slightly cheaper, than golf.

New at The Shops at Stonehaven and at OSHBC's store!

We have just added several items to the stores. Now that the Littlefield Admins have time to work on our RLV scripting we are thrilled to offer the following new items!!

Steel and Rubber Cuffs (arm and leg)
Padded Cuffs (arm)
Leather Cuffs (arm)
Female Chastity Belt
Male Chastity Cage
Plug Panel Gag

And a few fetish clothing items...

The Female Belt and Clothing are for Athena based avatars only at this time (sorry everyone....).
The other items will work with any avatar.

All of the items have been scripted by us and for the first time in OpenSim - they RETAIN the locking and keyholder status on relog and teleport!
We have done some Hypergrid testing and their operation is quite random depending on what version of OpenSim the grid you are hypergridding to is running.
We've seen about an 80% success rate when HG travelling, although if scripts are not active where you Hypergrid to, you may not be able to manipulate the menu.

We have hundreds of other items in the works... Stay tuned...

Trucks, New delivery, 100 to choose from

Modern, Classic, also Construction Trucks, Semi Trucks, Haulage Trucks, Fuel Trucks, cant list all you need to see.

Take a look at my regions

More than just vehicles, lots of accessories.

Today brought some unexpected challenges, but we turned that energy into something creative and meaningful. We’ve released a brand‑new original song inspired by everything that happened, and we’d love for you to play it, like it, and subscribe to support the work we put into it.

The video and cover art feature scenes from Pride Park at Darkheart City and Unicock Club, both of which you can visit anytime to enjoy the spaces shown in the song. Even when plans fall through, our community continues to shine, create, and move forward together.

Thank you all for your support, your loyalty, and your love.
We’ll always rise, rebuild, and make something beautiful for everyone.

First test of new Oar server success only a few bugs to sort yay. I tried on region with not much, created oar of 5522 assets in 9.2 seconds resulting file 377mb
oar server is independent and runs separate from opensim server, handles REST commands. example

# curl -s -X POST 127.0.0.1:6010/archive \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{"regionId":"a90db57d-a6e4-498f-b40c-4faaf00b3dd7","regionName":"Holoneon","sizeX":512,"sizeY":512}'
[returns job id]
{"jobId":"ca00aaa7-1615-4532-af9c-669453233903"}
[get status of ongoing/complete job]
# curl 127.0.0.1:6010/jobs/ca00aaa7-1615-4532-af9c-669453233903

{
"jobId":"ca00aaa7-1615-4532-af9c-669453233903",
"state":"done","elapsedSeconds":9.2,
"queuedUtc":"2026-07-10T15:59:12.0319843Z",
"fileSizeBytes":394976391,
"fileName":"Holoneon-20260710-155912.oar",
"filePath":"/opt/OarServ/Holoneon-20260710-155912.oar",
"objects":51,
"assetsWritten":5522,
"missingAssets":0,
"error":null
}
if you know how the oar module works in opensim server, batch process 100 assets at a time with callbacks that clobber the CPU and take ages to complete.

separating oar creating from opensim service gives us opportunity to be fast :) since regions run in RAM we have to trigger a disk sync with 'backup' or restart the region first.

I would like to wish you all a very safe and happy 4th of July. I am going to be leaving open sim for a bit as my creativity has moved into a new direction. for many years in SL, I was a builder , a dj, a club owner, did tribute bands as well , and here in open sim I did some DJ ing here and there, and some rework projects and scripting of cars. AI has opened a new door for me with the writing of songs I have done over the years, so I will leave you with this one I wrote and posted. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hamQ4RjH0zk

For all those who have shared and all that that cared , thank you and wishing you all the best.

For Anachron and me.
A little dream of happiness
I want to tell you a story about happiness,
it starts so softly, somewhere deep inside.
I close my eyes and drift into a dream,
where the world feels lighter for a while.

I see a unicorn, straight from a fairytale,
its touch so gentle, calm and pure.
I ride away with it through silver skies,
believing for a moment in something unreal.

Then I laugh and I stop right there,
because I know what truly stays.

The real happiness is standing next to me,
no fantasy, no distant star.
Just loving moments, warm and true,
right here, right where we are.

So I don’t tell a legend made of light,
I tell the truth, so simple and real.
About your smile in winter snow,
about the way your presence feels.

The real happiness walks hand in hand,
through snow, through time, through night.
No magic creature, no perfect plan,
just us, and it feels right.

In falling snow we lose all words,
just breath, just laughter, just now.
The world grows quiet around our hearts,
and nothing else matters somehow.

Arm in arm we slowly fall asleep,
our dreams begin to blend.
And I know, so softly, so clear:
This is happiness.
And it stays.
