working on my shop in Stark North of North, I put in a fun tunnel with tongue slide in my new Hugs Coffee Shop on the ground floor. Almost full term, collecting the leche. Can't wait to get my stomach back. hop://hg.zetaworlds.com:80/Stark%20North%20of%20North/359/...

@Fred Beckhusen suggests "If you were to become a bug, you could do so by wearing an avatar that would allow you to experience the world from a bug's perspective. Imagine visiting a garden where everything is to scale, and you could truly be the bug. You would be able to explore this miniature world, see the intricacies of the plants and flowers, and feel the wind blowing through the grass virtually. You could crawl through tunnels and crevices, and even fly to new heights. Being a bug could give you a whole new appreciation for the world around you and the creatures that inhabit it." three.hills.grid.outworldz.net:8002:Goliath Gardens

High in the mountains where the sun brushes the clouds with gold and the wind whispers ancient songs, a fabric is born—not in a factory, but at the patient hands of Aztec descendants who still carry the traditions of their ancestors.

Here, in a quiet village nestled among towering peaks, women sit before backstrap looms, their fingers moving like dancers, weaving stories into wool. The wool isn’t from sheep—it’s from alpacas, gentle creatures raised on the highland slopes. Their fleece is softer than the first snowfall, lighter than a whisper. Some say it feels like weaving clouds.

The colors in this fabric are taken from nature itself. Indigo skies, twilight purples, and the brilliant orange of dawn—each hue is hand-dyed with plants, minerals, and flowers passed down through generations. Together, they blend into a tapestry that feels alive: the sky melting into fire, dusk leaning into daybreak.

To touch this fabric is to feel the soul of the mountains. To wear it is to carry the spirit of the Aztecs—a people of artistry, earth, and endurance. No two pieces are ever the same, because each is a story—handwoven, hand-dyed, and handed down.

How far can you go? How far can you push the boundaries?
I pushed and pushed this road out further than I imagined was possible! Is it the new viewer? Is it new code? I don't know what it is, but I wanted this road to look like it was touching the horizon, so I kept moving my attached prim back and moving the road out further. Limits? Doesn't seem to be any. I could probably keep pushing as I never got so much as a hiccup, but this will do. I have never been able to push things out from a region this far, as there has always been a wall that you hit. Now it seems endless. I have asked Unadecal to keep an eye on it, though, in case things want to go wonky. In the meantime, I am giving this region all I can throw at it.
I hope to officially open soon. Well, you can get there through my teleporters, but no beacon yet. Welcome to Hell! :) Push the Boundaries!

I just recently updated the Menkaure Temple at the Egyptian display area to PBR textures and a fully redone pool area. Includes the temple, the pool area with plants and prim water, a gold sarcophagus, and a gold firepit. Click the Egyptian teleport sign inside the lobby to get there.

The original for this temple sits on Luxor and serves as my temporary home there. A version of this was used as an OSFest2023 memorial to Veri McMaster who passed away in 2022. I recently donated her version to Kitely to be permanently displayed on their upcoming Memorial region, since Kitely was her home.

This is a must have! I created one for the golf club and thought you would want one too! Take your bar with you! What the heck? Then tow the hot tub behind the bar!

I don't normally post anything politically divisive - and this is not posted to do that although in the current climate some people will choose to leap before looking.
Rather I'm posting this because I'm in awe of the person who made this.
Remember that the right to peaceful protest is something many people don't get the chance of doing.
Let's try and not lose any more chances for creativity in a good cause.
