A Little Natural Zen

Not all of SL gets taken over by winter decor to match the actual-world season, and I'm very grateful for that when I need a virtual summery break. There are so many areas of the grid I still haven't seen, and new ones popping up all the time.

(In this case, I just searched "nature" and landed in this lovely spot called "Buddha Garden")

Welcome to Another New Year

 My area got snow for New Year's Eve - far from the worst of the storm systems that night, but it did accumulate enough to keep the NYE party small. 

We had a good time, though! ...I only regretted the lack of sleep when I had to work on the 1st.
