Changes and Covid-19
Mayaeight is traveling alone for now. The Covid-19 pandemic creates many changes in relationships, in economics, and in politics. It is something we deal with. Please do join Grid Trek and become a Grid Trekker as she continues to travel and look for beautiful sims. In this time of people in lockdown, undergoing stress, facing death, we must continue to be strong, positive, and creative.
I hope that this pandemic brings people closer together even as we are apart. We need to wake up to the realities of the climate crisis and the lack of government care and action to mitigate the deadly effects of extreme weather events. We will leave this virus pandemic soon and head into the extreme summer heat for the northern hemisphere. Prepare yourselves. Form community relationships. Plant gardens if you can and demand that the governments of the world work for us, the common people.
Above all, develop your interaction in the virtual world. It is a very valuable place for us to meet, crossing national boundaries and through any sort of epidemic or pandemic. Here we can travel, we can educate, we can educate.
My best wishes to all and much love in this time of crisis.
See you in-world. Please attend the Grid Trek spring dance and party on April 11th.
See below for details.
Isolated? Grid Trek!
In this time of stress, illness, and people having to isolate themselves, traveling in Second Life has many benefits. Join Mayaeight as she explores gardens and nature in the virtual as she prepare May´s Grid Trek edition. It is looking to be the most beautiful yet!
April´s edition of Grid Trek is ready to publish -(yes we’re both on lockdown and were ahead of schedule) – and is about the many animals found in Second Life.
Stay well, everyone. The virtual world is a great place to come party, meet people from around the world, learn new things, and explore – without spreading pollution or illness!
See you on the grid!

Candy
One might ask, what does candy have to do with traveling? The story is that Gnosiseros and Mayaeight visited a very fun sim with ski slopes, snow, Christmas decorations, and a very large candy shop. This got Mayaeight to begin thinking about her favorite candy. So, for the next 3 hours, yes they do talk that long on the craziest and obscure subjects, Gnosiseros and Mayaeight shared stories of their favorite candies. Mayaeight´s favorites are Dots, followed by Jolly Rancher, Jujubes, and Milk Duds.
Second Life Artwork
Gnosiseros and Mayaeight have discovered some beautiful artwork in Second Life during their travels.

Sailing today in Blake Sea
Nothing like taking the challenge to sail in Second Life. A major problem is all of the landowners who do not leave a little space across their waterfront for people to sail by. It makes it hard to navigate! People, we can share the water! please adjust your rights of way to allow sailors to go by.
Gnosiseros and Mayaeight are in negotiations to set up a venue for our April 11th Grid Trek event! Fun is in the making! Keep alert for details!
Here is some absolutely fantastic artwork we found at the Store Digital Art – http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Fashion%20Boulevard/47/96/1503
You have to see it to believe it. We found this treasure while exploring Ocho Tango. Ocho Tango will be featured in our April issue.
Happy Sailing!
Ahab´s Haunt, Blake Sea
