I used to see a lot of boats go by including the parade of boats when I had a houseboat at Seal Point.

I am enjoying decorating my ranch home for Halloween. Those extra Li make all the difference though I do sometimes enjoy the challenge of decorating with less Li. I havent been in SL much lately due to sudden ill health but I have really been enjoying looking round my neighbourhood at how everyone is decorating their homes. Such beautiful decor. Happy Halloween !

I picked up this lovely little coastal traditional a few weeks ago and I am in the process of decorating it. It's quite a private spot being on a corner plot with raised area and rocks behind.

That's where it is. Lovely spot ❤️

Just a casual roll for fun and picked up this wee beauty.

Trompe Loeil has these lovely Japanese items out at their store now for $L50 The chairs have 6 fabric patterns and are 3 Li each The tea house is 94 Li and has external lights and sliding doors http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Hyde Park/218/186/22

I caught that earlier today. Thank you so much for releasing it as I love it. It's my Japanese keeper ❤️

I don't use any security at my homes. The eject button is all I need and I admit to getting a little pleasure from using the eject button. I don't even ban them as I almost hope they come back so that I can eject them again.😁 I haven't been the target of griefing in Bellisseria very often. I think only 3 or 4 times over years.

One of my favourite places is the little island at Cedarburg where you can rezz your own boat or catch the water taxi and go on a tour around the coastline. The views from the island are lovely as is the boat ride on the Dolphin boat. http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Cedarburg/163/130/22

TBH I wasn't sure about the modern theme as I tend to like rustic and quaint but I am enjoying starting to decorate my Newbrooke home and I like the surroundings and ambient sounds.

I think that's the part that is most concerning.

That's really stunning, I love it 🥰

I liked the old Linden home Japanese theme too. It would be great to see them in Bellisseria.

I am sorry to hear of your experiences. I have experienced similar, not in Bellisseria, but in a university group I was part of in SL a long time ago now. The worst thing for me was the one person I thought of as a friend was using alts to lead the bullying. Once I realised that, it was easy to just extricate myself from the lot of them. And like you did, I concentrated more on my RL community which made me realise very quickly how irrelevant to me these people were. I did enact a kind of revenge by alerting the university of what was going on (I was driven more by ensuring no more students had the experience I and others had, than revenge) and their 'community' was removed. The teaching sites are still there but the 'housing' for students was soon removed. There were actually only the handful of bullies left using that space anyway, due to the behaviour of these mean spirited, little people. Once I moved on, like you, I just have fun in SL and I enjoy it more than ever. Can't say I trust anyone though lol but that's not a problem for me.

I just got this lovely traditional home in Hardtack backing onto the sea. I'm going to release it at 18:30 when I go back inworld if anyone is interested in rolling for it. http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Hardtack/18/178/32

I've won, again and again, lovely well situated homes from all the themes. I keep a houseboat, a traditional and a log home because I love them. But my love in SL is very transient and fleeting. Before you know it, I'll be rolling the dice again. Its just as well I have never been to Vegas, I cannot resist, just another roll 🙄

Oh I love that. They have some lovely decor as well. I think Ill get that for my mainland.

I love the richness of your decor. Gorgeous.

I love the idea of hobbit homes RL and SL. I have stayed in these in the Mournes. Would love to live in it permanently 🥰

The rug comes with the table and cushions and they come in PG and Adult versions. I wasn't keen on the colours either but you can modify them. I tried several colours and they looked ok. Everything is modifiable so you can also colour the lamps to coordinate with the sofa. But like Isaac said, although you can move the table and use the rug alone, the same cannot be said for the table as there are small pile shadows of the rug on the legs of the table which cannot be edited.

The moles have done a lovely job around the coast here. There is a row of houseboats to the left and a little harbour there. In front, there is a small island with a few campers. Its a lovely spot for the campers there too.

I picked up this lovely seaside traditional in Trafalgar on 2nd February.

Apple Fall have the Nimes pool out as a gift amongst the boxed gifts on the shelving unit. I think its a new gift. Not sure if it is suitable for a Linden home as it is 59 Li. It has no animations so you would have to add your own. It is modifiiable.

I picked up this log home on a very sweet little spot.

Yes must be as I cannot go to my mainland place either.
