In fact, my self imposed exile from Second Life and all its frantic activity has given me the gift of Peace.
Many of you are aware of my search for Peace, and I pray that you will remember me in your prayers. I continue to remember all of you in my own prayers during this most Holy Season.

The theme this year is “Time for a Cure”. We kicked around some preliminary ideas for a campsite around the TimeMachine theme with possible steampunk costumes.

Last year it seemed that the "big guys" took over a lot of the heavy fundraising, making it hard for us "little flowers" to compete. I don't see that changing, since the Christmas Relay thing that just ended.

Early in April, Daaneth Kivioq was admitted to the Intensive Care Unit after suffering a debilitating Cardiovascular Accident.
