The "Elder West"?
This almost feels like Aeronwen and Gloria managed to slip out of the Elder Scrolls universe and ended up in the Old West. Or perhaps I should say, the "Elder West".
...Sounds like a possible new game. ;)
This is my new desktop wallpaper. :) I took the shot when I was just having Aeronwen ride around Highwood/Anvil/Gold Coast and enjoying the scenery. Although Aeronwen likes cozy little Millstone (as do I), I have to agree with Neldor about Highwood; it's the better place for a family. It's near Valenwood, has a larger house, doesn't feel so walled in and cut off from everything, is near the town of Anvil (but not TOO near), and the children have a lot more room to play and ride their ponies.
[I have a bad case of "the grass is greener at the other farm" when it comes to Highwood and Millstone.]
If I were to replay my "Family in Cyrodiil game", I think I would forego the whole "ride around aimlessly trying to find a home" and just say that Aryc really pulled some strings and managed to get a good price for Highwood for them. The whole "kill the insanely strong lich to get the key" would be done off-camera (even using the console kill command to get by him).
So...yeah...these are my ramblings after spending the evening riding back and forth around the Gold Coast.

Is that hat from the Apachii store?
I'm hoping that Apachii will import some of the stuff from her Skyrim store. There's really nice clothes there, not more skimpy stuff.

Oh I really hope so too. I hate that most modders turn Oblivion into "stripper land". One of the reasons that I'm really looking forward to installing Skyrim is that it has children and families built right into it. Many of the house mods I've looked at come with bedrooms that are suited for children and therefore don't need to be edited. Oblivion on the other hand isn't really "family friendly" at all. Even when using Emma's CoC mod, the place still doesn't feel like children are welcome in that world. And of course those endless skimpy armor mods. Aeronwen wouldn't have worn that stuff even before she had her twins.
