Those "Back To ..." Blues

When I saw Moontan Valeeva's new Tiny outfit, 'Back to School Blues', the dogged angle of the knitted beret and the resolute straps of the satchel struck chords clanging away right now for me. Time to shoulder that giant school backpack and feel small again.
The humour and sheer fun are apparent in the caring, tender detail.
So how do we combat those end of summer-vacation blues? A visit to Alexina Proctor's Community Library on Delphi gave me just that surge of inspiration and hope that September always needs. 
This is an amazing project that I was grateful to have found through the Forum post  InWorldz book Event.. 
Prax Maryjasz, who assisted with the design, explained the idea for a community meeting area. I was happy to try out several of her seating areas and have a feeling this could become a favourite literary chat spot.

Russian Alice

And what is the use of a book without pictures or conversation . . . or strawberries?
A dream of the simple joys of happy summer days: a good riverbank read, the grass rustling in the wind, and the pool rippling to the waving of the reeds.

A beautiful sim for exploring and now is the time to visit as Lady Sakai has set up a New Year's Hunt and discounts @ NotSoEffingSeriousItsPudding.
