Relayforlife in secondlife – Breaking records

Camping is so much fun and I’m just a big kid at heart, so when Fay announced the early opening of the RFL sims I was wrapt. 37 sims built by SL’s best creators are open for just over 24 hours.

What a full 24 hours it’s going tol be:) Each team strives to keep at least one team member walking the 10,907 metre track all the time. It takes about an hour and forty mnutes to complete.

And its going to be so distracting with lots and lots of interesting places tempting me to visit.

Anatomica has just the places for you to unwind.

I reckon I have the best birthday venue in any both worlds for 2009 🙂 My dream to get donations to match the 7500 USD raised by the Friends Fighting Cancer Team is getting closer and excitement is mounting as fast as the dollars are rising in Second Life.

It’s getting harder to remember the times during treatment when it seemed there was no light and little hope. It’s easy to feel very small and insignificant while those around get on with the busyness of healing and caring.

4 days to go – I’m getting so excited

Seems my birthday is going on for a long time this year. It began last week when an early pressie arrived from the UK 🙂 Continues this week as we climb toward the birthday wish goal.

And two days ago we held the coolest birthday party in the virtual world of Second Life celebrating all our friends July Birthdays. We gathered from all over the globe to laugh, sing, dance and chat on Star Journey Island.

Dancing in the clouds

Guests of honor included Richard Geer (Starman Heron), author of Star Journey, yours truly and team member Lisa Ellis (Beda Wilder).

Our friends, Sammy from Germany. Claudine and Otto from the USA had created a fantastic surreal party area where we could dance in the clouds or under the sea. Tamra Hayden (Tamra Sands) entertained us for an hour streaming in with her beautiful voice.

I love the magic and sheer creativity of this virtual world (Second life), whatever you imagine you can create it. It’s a place where a meeting of hearts, minds and common goals is more important than if you were young or old, fit or unwell, rich or poor.

Whoot! Lookie here - no breathing gear

Sort of reminds me of cancer, that too is a great leveler and brings together a truly diverse group of people. I have met and continue to meet so many amazing and wonderful people which is just another reason why I know we will reach my birthday dream.

Your gifts are creating more magic birthdays

HUGEST HUGS and THANK YOU for your CONTRIBUTIONS
