Hi,
I moved to Crestline late last year and was wondering if any of you here wanted to hang out?

Welcome to eplaya. Tell a bit about yourself. What makes you excited? Are you heading to Burning Man at some point?

Wow! You are in this area!

How many Burns have you been to?

I had a full head of curly brown hair when I first came to Burning Man. Now I'm a burned out shell of the man I used to be. Do the math. Uggh! I'm near that 20 year mark.

That cross country trip is a lot of fun. I did it with my artcar a few times. It's like a traveling carnival. The area reserved for Burning Man is 7 square miles, so the open feel is still there. You can be out in the open playa and do a full 360 spin and not see another person. I'm in the suburbs s...

Welcome back Raymond. BRC has changed a bit over the years, but the overall feel is the same. I've been afraid to skip years for fear of losing momentum. 2020 was tough, but I don't feel I've missed anything since it didn't happen. I guess you're planning on coming back in 2021? Indications are that...

Plan to fly in. Would like some info, from experience, on motels. Will have a rented vehicle. Nothing fancy - just clean and cheap. How are you plans coming along? Have you started pulling pieces together yet? We are here to help and guide you along Art. With a name like "Art", you have to be good....

Larry Flynt dead at 78.

I’m curious as to if he isn’t convicted in this Impeachment can he be tried for the deaths of people who died that day, thinking of Manson. Or is the impeachment also covering any other charges for crime grandpa re: January 6th? :coffee: I'm thinking that every last piece of evidence is going to be...

I wanted so badly to go in 2020, we had a whole plan. It would have been our first burn. So what is the news for 2021?? Will tkts go on sale as usual? This is a bucket list item for my friend and me, we are really hoping everything pulls together for 2021. Hopefully 2021 will happen and you get to ...

Everything was fine until the "weekenders" showed up and started leaving their Depends in the Porto's. By Saturday night every pump truck was broken. Exodus was very telling as we witnessed piles of cheap aluminum walkers where in previous years there would have been abandoned bicycles. I'd have to...

Two more days

Trump is also under pressure, the pressure of impeachment, of course, and the loss of his social media platforms. He is also under financial pressure, as Deutsche Bank, the only bank that would still lend to him, has announced it will no longer do business with him. But, according to Maggie Haberma...

I think the efforts to get his head on Mount Rushmore may be on hold indefinitely.

With the prospect of Burning Man 2021 looking a bit brighter, I now say that everything is no longer lost forever. Wouldn't make any large bets. Agreed! Hey Sham, did you bump your noggin? You ok boo? :lol: Who are you? Where am I? Is this real life? So the vaccine is not going as smoothly as they ...

I've always stayed at the Courtyard Marriott using credit card points. If you're spending real dollars, this will cost more. They are always extremely accommodating. I ship boxes ahead to the hotel and they hold them for me. I've also done will call boxes to be picked up by UPS after the burn. They ...

Due to a visit from the Board of Health caused by social distancing violations, we had to move our Burning Man Bar around the corner. Go down the side ally and you'll find an unmarked door. Knock twice and whisper the secret password---you know what it is: PINEAPPLE. Welcome to the Burning Man Bar 2...

Curious as to how old you were when you first burned. I'm 74 yo and planning first burn in 2021 How old was oldest burner you met? Art, welcome to eplaya and the dusty wild world of Burning Man. 74 years old is hardly too old for attending Burning Man. The only thing you should fear is the regret y...

GREAT PICTURES! I needed a dose of the playa today.

Awe shucks.

Back atcha

Some more questions. Since I'll be flying in, I will be purchasing items locally. i.e. ice chest, shade tarp, air mattress, propane stove, propane, landscape spikes, etc. I won't be taking items back with me. Do other burners accept stuff like this on exodus? it will be dusty. If not, who might acc...

Never been but hope for 2021. Will be flying in from FL. and renting cargo van. Will be willing to ride share, but don't know if I take someone, am i expected to also take them back to Reno? Also, if they are getting tickets at will call, what papers should I check so that I don't get turned away f...

My Dad. Having to read it about it on the 'Net, rather than hearing about it from a family member was a bit surprising.

Ouch, I'm very sorry to hear about this. Family dynamics can make quite a mess of things

For some weird reason, 2021 is looking a lot brighter. Vaccines on the fast track and new leadership in Washington.
I am hopeful that we'll all be meeting up again in the Black Rock Desert in August. Time will tell.

The final ride was January 2020. It was a great run, but it's over now. There will not be an AMTRAKathon 2021.

Who's going to break the news to Doc?

HOLY SHIT!

I live on one of the busiest roads in North Lake Tahoe. Just in the last day I have seen all sorts of cars/rvs driving by with lots of bikes! It has gotten me excited to see the regular migration of Burners into Tahoe. I can't wait! Journey safely everyone. Peas and Carrots -Chango So this is an an...

I'm trying to organize a big coliving / maker / permaculture / burner / ... community project near Portland. Not gonna pitch it here, in an attempt to avoid moderation. Message me if you'd like to know more.

I'm curious. Feel free to give an overview if you want.
