Nearly 8 years ago, my best friend Brindimere and I created Nani Makana.  It was an Hawaiian themed sim for events and rentals. It was also my most favorite place in Second Life.  Unfortunately, real life happened.  I could no longer afford to keep the sim running and we decided to discontinue it. I'm still not over the loss and vow to one day reopen Nani. However...

Two years ago, after working for various places and rising as a star host and music manager Brindi created Stanza, a live music venue. It grew exponentially and now its one of the hottest live music venue on the Grid.  I made an appearance for its 2nd anniversary and took some choice pictures. These are not store related, I just really wanted to share this special night with you.

Introducing the tropical collection.  Every week from April 7th to June 23rd BohoBebop will release clothing, accessories, structures, decorations, and hairstyles based on a tropical theme.  This is my first time releasing some of these items and I am very excited to share them with you.  I am a bit of a perfectionist and truth be told I had most of these items done and ready to release last year.  Finally I feel like I can release them.
Here is a preview of whats to come:

Tropical Slats Build Kit
Vintage Tropical Style Swimsuits for men and women
Ferns and Vines Set (full perm)
Vintage Bahama Outfit (working both male and female versions)
Antigua Hair (female loose curls with removable scarf accessory)
Hanging Garden (hanging potted plants)
Barbados Hair (female braided ponytail)
Tropical Style Pillows and Poufs
Beaded Earrings (Catwa Freebie)
Pavilion Seating Set (furniture freebie)
Maui Teeny Camper (Gacha or Buy)
Lanai Bedroom Set

By mid June I plan to announce my next theme.  Stay tuned!

I've decided I have taken enough pictures lately.  Especially when it comes to exploring all the wonderful creations available in world. I am always impressed by the creativity that Second Life artists show, so I have taken it upon myself to seek them out.  Philieas Fogg took 80 days to circumvent the world, I will take 80 days of exploring also.

Today I stopped by Done Wiv' a Twist, a gorgeous photogenic spot that changes with the season.

Today it was dappled with flowers and random showers. There were also scattered coupled seating spots and pose frames for your snapping pleasure.

I put in a few hours to visit the Hipster Fair in search of freebies. The fair is over on the 15th, that's only five days to grab the free stuff people!  Honestly there were mostly dollarbies but cheap is cheap right?    Right, on with the snags:

Digging up a prize.

Kiana has done it again.  Madpea's newest offering is fun and inventive.  I enjoyed stumbling on the story of Lily Morano and using a unique geocaching view of SL to find hunt down clues.

Prizes are given all at once at the end so play to enjoy the experience.  The hunt is planned to run until the end of march.
