There's No Place Like Home - Summer Cottage

The Fist Pump Hunt brought to you by Atooly Hunts kicks off July 1st and runs through the 26th.   The theme this year is 'Something You Love The Most'. What that means is that store owners were asked to pick an item they adore and use it as their hunt gift. For There's No Place Like Home it was this old fashioned style English Summer House is inspired by a real one.  I took the liberty of filling it with a few of my favorite things as well just to finish it off.  It is partial mesh and weighs in at 45 LI and is modifiable.  :)  It is my understanding 42 stores are set to participate so here is your kick off point:  Starting Point

Intergalactic

If you try to knock me you'll get mocked

I'll stir fry you in my wok

Your knees'll start shaking and your fingers pop

Like a pinch on the neck of Mr. Spock

Captain's blog... SL date 6/2/2013.  The strange phenomena of The Arcade has gripped the citizens on the grid into a frenzy.  Like a magnetic force they are all drawn to this one location where they will spend hours searching through the machines for various collectibles some not leaving until every single one is in their possession.

I am showing off a very small sampling of the items I have acquired so far.  Arcade is probably my favorite event .  You have the whole month of course but some of us die hards have to have it all on the first day of course.  I think hands down my favorite rare score of the event is this chair from Hopscotch.  I squeed with delight when I saw it appear in my inventory.  Skylar is still glaring at it but I think it will grow on her eventually.  I think it is beautiful!  Some of my other conquests include this amazing hair by Wasabi Pills (I had to have them all!)  Of course Intrigue did not let us down with their plushy collection.  Dinosaurs are the theme this round.  Zigana made these amazing little robots, isn't he cute!  And I completed it all with Glam Affair who has a stunning skin this round and the Dead Apple Eyes.  Good luck shoppers and happy trading!  Your ride to the Arcade:  HERE (good luck!)
