STEP opened at 3pm EST, I was notified of an available ticket at 4:28pm. It was a tier 1 ticket ($270). I bought it, of course, but I'm debating whether I'll be able to go. The ticket price is only a fraction of the cost...and a small fraction if you live on the east coast. Since STEP tickets are no...

Sorry it took me so long to reply, especially after the attention-getter post (oops).

Yes, flying would be cheaper and a LOT quicker, but I have all the time in the world to get there and, as Vizoo said, there's plenty of country out there to see and experience.

bumped so more ppl will reply and make me feel good about myself

I drove through Texas one time!

Welcome Foxfur, looking forward to meeting you on the playa

I will

Hello fellow Florida burners. This year will be my virgin burn also. I'm in the Tampa Bay area and will be driving (solo, so far) very comfortably in a 2010 Dodge Grand Caravan. I may have room for 1 and could definitely use help with gas expenses, if anyone's interested. See you on the playa

Cheers,

Your odds of meeting most of us on the playa would be a lot greater if you attend the eplaya meet n greet hosted by Dr Pyro at Barbie Death Camp and Wine Bistro.

You tell me when and I'll be there!!

Cheers Dara, I hope you decide to come join us. I'm originally from Akron just moved to Florida 2 ears ago.

I'll be at Couch Surfing camp. If you do come, stop by and say hi.

I'll be making the long haul cross-country from Florida for my first burn this year. I've been wanting to go to BM for 3 years now. This year I said "fuck off" to the fear of the unknown and took the plunge. Now I can't wait to get to my new home!!!:D I'll be camping with the Couch Surfing camp, sto...
