NEVER RIDERS XMAS IN JULY

I don’t want to take credit for the idea. Gemmalynn came up with the Christmas in July theme, and in RL, I know she is dressing (briefly at least) in warm woolies and snuggly hats and dreaming of tinsel and xmas trees.

Here? Well, sort of! If you visit Gemm’s sim Cindermoon Shire, you will for sure see some Christmas trees up year-round, cause let’s face it, why not? Xmas is the funnest holiday there is, maybe. Well, maybe Halloween, but that’s soon ….

As we wiped the sweat off our virtual brows, we decided to do a Christmas in July Never Riders ride. We were advised to dress warm. I had a parka, trapper’s hat, and snow boots on. Whew!

We rode from Cloudburst Roads to Snow Lands. Virtually, this was TOTALLY across the continent. It took a full half hour even knowing the roads, and it would be much longer if I didn’t take the freeway.

Be advised- unless you have a GREAT sense of direction, use your map, and I also use a compass that sits semi-transparently on my head, letting me know the direction I am going. So anyway, you know, basically we were going North west! all the way baby!

And there we ended up in Lost Notch Ski Village, dusted with beautiful snow and snowy trees and buildings. We tested the ski jump.

Luckily, Josh skied the whole way over so he was prepared. Yes, it is still working. Want to defy death? Go through the ski lodge out the back doors, and there is a handy teleport up to the ski jump. Defy death! It is fun!

After the long ride, defying death on the jump and dodging snowflakes, it was time to relax in the lodge with a small dance area with our fellow Never Riders as we listened to Christmas songs.

What theme will we ride next week? Will keep ya posted! Never Riders meets weekly at 2 pm Grid Time at Cloudburst Roads (generally). See you next week!
