Good morning Bar! Long time no see, still crazypants busy on stuff. But hooray for ticket sale day.

@Traveller, your calculations are off slightly, possibly because we are on daylight savings time (PDT). Your post was made 2 hours 24 minutes before the start of the sale.

Other than a queue 'burp' and being off by 2 mins... no major hiccups this year?

How did everyone do? Really hope y'all got tickets for you and those you care about.

As a first time burner I'm very aware that me getting tickets means a veteran may not. I don't like this, but I am also really excited that I get to experience BM this year. It's bittersweet.

Thank you for welcoming me and can't wait to meet you at the Playa!

Oh don't apologize for getting tix. Veterans do have more resources/connections than virgins. It is very sweet that your so thoughtful though.

Congratulations and see you in the dust :coffee:

Congrats to ((((((((everyone who got tickets)))))))) and especially ((((((((((((Aurelia)))))))))) 8) 8) 8)

Having moments of delirious happiness here imagining seeing friends in BRC.

Yggy I have some great memories of Frankencamper 8) 8) 8) so do you have a name yet for the new RV? Something to hang new stories on?

Hoping to find you there!

All I heard was one person got a ticket, and one didn't.

Does anyone know if it's possible to turn a video 90 degrees? (taken on a digital camera) The option to rotate is available for pictures, but I can't find it for videos.

I took a short video of something that's been in the works quite a while and is now done, but to get it in the frame properly, I had the camera turned. I'd love to show it off here, but upright.

I did some gardening today. Or rather, I just moved a few pots around. That *has* to count as gardening! :)

Hehehe - I'm glad you like it, BBD.

Congrats to all those who were able to get what they needed, and good luck/hang in there to those who are still on quests for tickets or passes. You guys know the drill, participation and persistence pays off.

Life's still been all kinds of busy, and my weekend got sidetracked by the van's alternator failing (after only 19 years, too). It was a real pain in the butt, but I got the part and the couple tools I needed but didn't already have and managed to figure out how to get it replaced.

Hello Friends. Thought I'd stop in and see who might be hanging around in here.
I'm knee deep in playa projects/repairs/upgrades...it's gonna sneak up on me...again!
There is a construction crew across from work that has been repealing and replacing the sidewalk....I'm working up the nerve to sneak over there and write something in the wet cement....can't decide what to write though. My boss's name maybe? For a good time call...maybe?? So far my favorite option is "Trump Sux".
If I am successful, I will post a pic.
