Re: My 7:00 & D neighbor
This is sad to see, but it is not the only thing to happen with the community bikes at burning man. One time at 10 & K I saw a yellow bike, locked, and another taped with checkered duck tape. Another time, another place, I found another locked bike, and another. I was lucky, though, to have found a ...

Re: Single mama, virgin burner, dreading having second thoug
I should update this. Everything worked out more perfect that I'd ever imagined it could. The biobus ride to and from the burn was beautiful, the stop at Pyramid Lake on the way to it, watching the Sunday night traffic line all the way back there all night long, clear, starry sky and milky way above...

Re: DC Burners
My ride had to bail last minute due to sudden change in work schedule. I feel it is too late to find a ride now. I am an hour and a half away, in White Post, VA. If anyone can help me get there, great! If not, I'll keep checking the board for DC activity. I really was looking forward to tonight thou...

Re: DC Burners
Anybody around who can connect me with any dc/md/va burners... soon? Since before the burn, I've not had any luck in keeping conversations with anyone, let alone getting any response what so ever with the contact infos posted at regional info. What's going on DC? A little help please. Thank you <3

Re: Condition of Heart Attack Guy at 9:00 and I?
I had just met her that week, and she was a true beauty. I believe they were engaged. But, the place was a good one for it to happen, no doubt. If I were to die of natural cause, BRC would be a good place to do so.

Re: Condition of Heart Attack Guy at 9:00 and I?
There was only one fatality at the event, and it happened earlier in the week. So while I don't have any specific news about the person in question, it sounds as if with your help (as well as the Rangers and ESD staff) that he made it. Very well done. You might want to post in the Lost & Found boar...

Re: post what you didn't like about 2011 here
Excerpt: "The negativity surrounding the first ever sell-out is so "un-burner". Yes there may be people there, tourists, tickets bought from scalpers, in plush RVs, but it's a city! Nobody ever said that BM is all rainbows and sunshine all the time. It's not a vacation, it's an adventure; and there...

Re: post what you didn't like about 2011 here
Locked yellow bikes. Duck taped yellow bikes. Yes, I found a yellow bike covered in black and white duck tape, and took it all off before riding it so that I wouldn't look guilty. Other than that, as a 26-year-young virgin, I had a MAGICAL time. Spent most of my time meeting people, wandering, helpi...

Re: Newfie solo virgin burner - should I join a theme camp?
I'll be on that same bus with you, and I am going solo as well, and still not sure where I will be camping. I am not really worried though, as I've got a tent system rigged up... but I would still prefer to find somewhere to camp with shade. Considering joining orphan III, but keeping my options ope...

Re: who needs what
Hello lovelies I have finally booked my flight and am ready to roll. There are only a couple of things I am lacking, and will not be able to fly with - While I am still going back and forth about tent stakes, even after lengthy time reading through ePlaya (rebar or military tent stakes), I am leanin...

Yes, and I agree as well. When I went to a show last week I made the goodbye so quick that he did not realize I was gone. Of course it made me feel sad, but what are feelings. All was well. When I returned home, and he woke up as he usually does now and then at night, there were no tears, and a huge...

Thank you, every one of you. Each of your responses has helped me. Last night when the initial thought of separation anxiety hit, I was filled with so much thought - now I am more at ease, as I wrote in my -BM 2011 prep journal- (yes, I am keeping a journal :) )with a better image of the plan. I did...

Right on. Thank you for your response. I mentioned I have some growth to do, and I do because there I was starting to think I was a bad mother for wanting to go out so long without him... It's either going alone or not going at all. I do a lot for him, stay at home with him all the time, and need fu...

Single mama, virgin burner, dreading having second thoughts
I post this amidst the excitement in getting prepared for my first experience, and when I lay in bed with my 19 month baby boy, whom I love with everything that I've got and more, I realize how ...scared, I guess you can say, I am of going away for a week+/-. I've not "officially" had second thought...

Thank you, thank you all. I've sent an email to one of the dc burners via regioanl links, looking forward to a response. Meanwhile, I've read over and over the Survival guide from 2010, have been frequently browsing the net when a question comes to mind, finding answers easily. A friend here has men...

Greeting Wanderers
Love from the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. I've been hanging out on the outskirts of life for the last 18+ months, in that I'm a new mama, full time, and loving every bit. My son is everything and it is time to jump back in full-power. Before this new journey of mine I traveled here and th...
