I have to second what Motsky said...it was a fantastically successful camp, particularly so when one considers that it took two months to organize. We had more than 50 campers, everyone got along famously, there was no drama, there were no bad attitudes. As far as I'm concerned it was all love. Amaz...

Prevention: Spray those little tootsies each morning with a solution of vinegar water (you can add some essential oil to it to make for a nicer smell - rose or lavender are both very nice). Using a spray bottle kills the problem of having too much grey water, and whatever's there you can drip into y...

This was the first year that I was able to screw up the courage to go to the Carcass Wash and acutally participate. Last year, I had my head washed, and my hands, but I stopped there. This year, aided by the company of many of my campmates, I went through the whole process and loved it. It was intim...

A notable virgin in Stag Camp spent her time before the burn reading everything she could online and compiling her own W/W/W. She showed up on the Playa like a bad ass because she spent a little extra time researching the events/camps lists before leaving her hometown. Fuck the W/W/W. "DIY is the ne...

I've had a couple of experiences with art cars on both ends of the spectrum. Last year, all of my camp liquor was donated to an art car with the promise of a ride to the Burn. The liquor was hijacked and my campmates and I were left standing in the dust after the art car driver ditched us. This year...

This was my 5th burn and without a doubt was definitely my best. I had such a tough time last year that I was thinking that I was going to bag it, but there was magic this year. I'm sure that those who say 'it's not the burn, it's you' are totally correct. I adjusted my approach and had an unbelieva...

Tips? Get some sleep, if you can, before you decide to leave. Be awake and aware. Be ready to be patient. I always see people passing and I think of all the people nodding off while they're driving next to those passers...Gives me the chills. Have your shit together early. Be packed hours before it'...

"You can have my art theme when you pry it from my cold dead hands!" My costume next year is going to be "The Seven Ages Of Charleton Heston." I do a pretty mean impression, too...

Wow...it sounds like you all had a fairly mundane year. I think the words I heard most, in this order, were: "Hey. Come over here. Can you smell this for me? No, the other hole. Does that smell like almonds to you? Is that bad? Taste it a little. Yeah, that's what I thought. Here's some antiseptic m...

I'm working a stencil. The Virgin Burners tribe seems to have gotten ahold of my brainwaves, though, and nabbed my idea. Nevertheless, the stencil I'm doing is the Man with deer horns and his hands and feet are hooves. I'll make a sign, too, or just drop the stencils with Motsky before he heads down...

Ok Staggers....got together with Motsky today and he and I did some brainstorming. I talked with my girl, too, who has the benefit of having camped with a well organized and hallowed theme camp for a few years and I picked her brain about quite a few issues... We're growing, quite rapidly I might ad...
