Last few days ... mixed

[kinzel]

The last few days have been kind of hectic. Wednesday was a very nice day, so nice that we abandoned our working plan and rushed to the ocean. Walked on the beach several times, found out our favorite lodgings at the ocean changed hands on March 31...it started raining about the time we left the beach and has been raining here off and on since; today we had several heavy duty thunderstorms...

Came home Wednesday to find a flurry of messages about potential electronic book stuff... all of which *still* has to wait until we have reversion letters firmly in hand. That's now looking to be the second week of June...

We've been working; Rolanni did a great job revamping the SRM Publisher paper catalog and I've been dealing with the Strangeness in Second Life: I won a lottery for a free store in a Second Life mall! The Lindens offered lottery winners free lease of a store front (I think for three months) and I accepted...so we've copies of much of the stuff also found at Nifty Snippets and now have an SRM Publisher snippet outlet at the Luna Oaks Galleria. A number of the new store owners were caught so much by surprise that they have nothing up, 48 hours after being informed... meanwhile with the aid and assistance of Kit, Shawna, and Anhayla... and the patience of Data Linden! ... have an operating mini-store. If you're in second Life come on by We think we have a transferable flag -- visit our Luna Oaks Mall shop to see it...

I'm fairly new in Second Life - and came there because of the Liaden stuff. How do I find you? (I'm Ellemir Book)

Use the Find tab at the bottom...
and then choose ALL on the right ...
type in Liad --
you should come up with Friends of Liad Park and also Friends of Liad Garden... those are both good starts...
the "regular" store is Nifty Snippets -- that shoudl show on all...
and if you use find to locat Luna Oaks Galleria .. we're in there iwth a big SRM Publisher sign....

Thank you. I found it.

There is one book there that won't let you buy it.

Do you recall which wouldn't? As owner, I can't really buy them anymore... so it can be hard to test...

[celticdragonfly.livejournal.com]

Right, lemme check my inventory here, which one didn't I get...

It had something about knives in the title.

I think they should all work now...
the funny thing is that you could have taken a free copy...
but you couldn't buy a copy.

Such are the joys of emerging technology...

lodgings in Maine

Hey Steve --
I'd been meaning ask if you had lodging suggestions in Old Orchard Beach -- I'm planning a trip to the ocean in July and know you like OOB and I haven't been there before. Glad you got to the sea!

Lodging...
much depends upon your budget and inclinations... and how far ahead you can plan. We've been staying at the mumble mumble ... drop me a note off list. But if you want July you'll need to make reservations soon...
