It’s hard to believe we’re already to the end of April! This spring seems to be passing by so quickly, and I haven’t been finding time to write for a while, so this is a bit of a catch-up post…

The biggest and most exciting event this month was that I finally met one of my friends from Second Life in the real world! Ghost flew over to see me and spent the week at my house, which was a nice change of pace and a lot of fun.

We started our visit with a trip to the Shelburne Tap House, a favourite spot of Lilli’s and mine when we are in the Burlington area, and stopped off at the Vermont Teddy Bear Company on the way home, but kept it more or less short for the first day.

I won’t go into a complete telling of the week we spent together, but in short, we spent the rest of the time hanging out, watching a film, playing some games, going out to eat, taking a trip up to the Middlebury Museum, and just driving around for a bit.

Ghost also introduced me to Kirby’s Return to Dreamland, which was neat for me since I’ve never played a Kirby title before, and they reintroduced me to a Frogger game I have vague memories of playing as a child. It was a lot of fun even though I kept dying!

After the week was up the following Saturday, I had to take them back to the airport, but it was great to see them and spend the week together. I’m already looking forward to the next trip!
