Oh and they were so beautiful, they had butterflies in them.

TPBM has someone they can not stop thinking about.

On the playa I smile and shine
Feeling the love all the time
The default world is boring
And my mind is snoring
Missing that dusty home of mine.

On the playa I wish I were
Wearing lingerie and coats of fur
Instead I'm in my cube
Dreaming of fun with lube
And the smiles on playa incured

I made it up there.... got to Reno at about 7pm, had dinner in a casino and spent the rest of the night in the alley. We didn't even go into the clubs. Had a great time meeting people, sitting by the fire, and roasting marshmellows. Thanks for giving me the idea to go Pinemom! If I had been more org...

Well, I love to cook and have never poisoned anyone. I think that makes me a successful chef.


The person below gets a BIG HUG from me.

All you can do is laugh back.

I have been researching into building a hexayurt for 2009. I think it is a great option and, after 7 years on the playa in dust-caked camping structures, a dust free space sounds fantastic. I have a two questions about hexayurts though.... 1. The seem pretty simple to erect, but what about taking th...

Hmmmmm..... I may just be able to arrange a trip to Reno this weekend.... will have to work on that! :)

Thanks pinemom!

*Mwah* right back at you!

The dust storms add that survialist feel, which to me, just fits in perfectly with it all. So in general, I don't mind them. That being said, this past year, especially on Saturday, my patience did run a bit short after the 8th hour of white outs. I'm just glad it was only 2 days out of the 10 I was...

I recently was connected with a great group of burners who are now good friends, and they have inspired me to contribute and participate more in the Burning Man community than I had previously, and it really enhances and amplifies the experience to a whole new level! That, and I'm a slow learner! (M...

I had a great time @ Decom. The music was fabulous and the people amazing, especially at the Diner, we had a good time there. I was disappointed in all the trash that was left behind though....... There was so much litter in the streets and park, it was kind of sad. I guess the Leave No Trace stampe...

Yep yep. I'll be there heatin' the street! Can't wait, the default world is getting me down.

I used Enteprise and had no issues returning the truck, they didn't even notice the new scratch. I did detail the truck thoroughly. I did have problems with them in picking up my rental. I reserved a cargo van and they didn't have any available when I showed up. They got me into a truck with a 15% d...

Welcome welcome Moinnva.

I can't imagine a better way to re-define yourself that with Burning Man! See you on the playa, I'll have a dusty hug waiting for ya.

I had a great time this year, and I did feel lonely at times too. Every year is a different experience out there for me (this was #7) and this year, every night was different. For example, I'm single and was with a camp of good friends and family, yet when wandering around the playa or looking at ar...

I was at the wheel and B and saw a green tent flying in they sky. It was pretty low when I first saw it and it kept getting higher and higher until it was just a speck in the sky. My neighbors videoed it.

Hey there! I'm not in Ventura, but I'm out here in the world and thought I'd say Hi!

Peace and playa hugs to you!

My cousin has one, and I helped erect and take it down this year. It really didn't take too long to put up, but it does take quite a bit of muscle power, a little more than I had, to put up. It took three of us about 45 minutes to erect. Take down was very easy, two of us had it apart within 15 minu...

I'm not from Utah, but I found a disposable camera from someone who is. It was found at the Temple Burn this year. Do you recognize these people?

Your photos are beautiful! Thanks for sharing. It's amazing all the art I missed. I thought I wandered the whole playa, but people always have photos of things I didn't come across out there.

This was my 7th burn, and my 7th decompression. This one is hardest for me yet. I was on the playa longer than in the past - 9 nights, and maybe that is why. As soon as I found myself alone in my truck on the drive home, stuck in traffic, and being bombarded with commercialson the radio, I wanted to...

We are at the Wheel and 3:45. I think it's the circle that goes around center camp, but I am not 100% sure.

Hey everyone, I have been spinning poi for a while and just started doing fire with my Burning Man mates in Alameda, but we don't get together that often. I'm looking for some people in the Sacramento area to spin fire with. I still consider myself a beginner to both poi and fire and would like to g...

I'm planning on brining one of those 20'x10' steel and canvas carports for my shade structure this year. I've seen them out there in the past, so I know they work. I have a few questions though. How hard is it to put up? How many people does it take? What do you recommend for making it sturdy in the...
