Hello out there in the wonderful world of Second Life! I hope everyone is doing well and got just the bundle, kennel or nest they wanted!

I received a request today for a object that breeders could place at their sim or market stall that would give new breeders easy access to our main horse location and our website!

So I found the nearest forest chopped down several trees, got out the power tools (duct tape and super glue) and came up with this lovely Amaretto Ranch Breedables Welcome Sign!!

I have included a picture! I hope to start seeing this around secondlife and at your ranch!

WelcomeSign1

I have also sent these out in group notices so if you missed it check your past notices!!

Well until next time happy breeding everyone! This is Ava over and out!

 

With Heavy Hearts

Last night I was thinking about what I could write about, and I realized we are half way through the month of April…. WOW time does really fly by fast..I thought about all the fun events we have had and all of the ones we still have planned in April.

 

Enjoying life with good friends and family,…. and then to see the devastating news today of the bomb explosions at the Boston Marathon , an event where people, friends, and family gather to support and have a fun day with each other.

 

After all, life is really short and goes by so fast, with all the problems you can face, financial, medical, family issues,and plenty others, we still survive with our memories of fun and happy times. It is those times that make everything seem a lot better, and that helps us to continue to deal with the bad times.

 

It really saddens my heart with the realization that someone has purposely tried to kill and ruin the lives and happiness of others. Our thoughts and prayers here at Amaretto are with the families in Boston, and for those that are injured or have lost a loved on.

 

In closing, remember to take the time to let your friends and family know how much you care about them, because tomorrow will never come… because when it does it will be today.. … Group Hug!

This month’s guests are …..

Happy Friday Everyone! Today I am excited to talk about the 3rd Episode of The Dakota Show which is taking place tomorrow Saturday, April 13, 2013. I have decided to focus the entire show this month on the Amaretto Market Owners Coalition (AMOC) group. This group is for all breeders not just market owners and I really want to get the word out there about this group and the wonderful AMOC officers that are working so very hard to make a difference in the Amaretto Community. I am extremely excited about the possibilities this group can bring to the Amaretto Community.

As the AMOC group charter states this group ~Amaretto Market Owners Coalition~ is to keep the market owners and breeders together and hopefully promote some stabilization of the Secondary Market. Joining this group is by invitation only so if you know of a market owner or a breeder who supports Amaretto products that has not been invited to this group please contact a member of the Amaretto Team and let us know so we can invite them.

 

I have lined up an exciting panel of guests that are all members of the AMOC group. I will be talking to AMOC’s lead officers, Mami Deerhunter and Sixx Streeter. I will also be talking to a 2 extremely active members of the group Bundy Xue and Marco Denimore as well as the owner of the beautiful Sweetflowers Market, Benny Spingflower. This show should be very informative so don’t miss it!!! Tomorrow, Saturday, April 13, 2013 at 11am slt! See you there!!
Oh and if you missed either of the 1st two episodes of the Dakota Show you can watch them both anytime here:

We will be notifying contestants when and where they can set up their displays soon!!!!

With sadness  I have the task of announcing to the Amaretto Community that yesterday’s Graduation ceremony at ARU will be the last graduation ceremony.  Because of the ridiculous actions of a few we feel we can no longer provide a graduation ceremony  that will please everyone.

We will still provide classes and we still encourage everyone that has a thirst for knowledge and not a greed for gifts that can be parlayed into profit to continue to attend the classes at ARU.  The classes we provide on the beautiful ARU sim are a valuable tool in breeding and we sincerely hope that everyone that attends leaves class with a better understanding of our products.

As one of the teachers there I can truly say it is a great feeling I get from seeing you all in class and I would like to extend a sincere thank you to everyone that attends the classes at ARU.

To be clear, you will still be able to attend classes and graduate from ARU but there will be no graduation ceremony or party.  We will still have classes and we still encourage you to attend them.

Amaretto and staff are on a never ending quest to get as many breeders to attend the classes at Amaretto Ranch University. The courses offered are very informative and help our breeders gain a higher understanding of Amaretto Breedables making raising, breeding, and selling a more enjoyable experience. Today was a very memorable occasion for 14 very dedicated breeders and students!

It is with great honor that I announce to you all, the graduating Class of April 4th 2013!! Each of the graduates received a graduation certificate and also received a special bundle for completing all of the ARU classes offered.
