Another noob (to the forum)

Post by BrittanyBurning » Thu Sep 18, 2008 7:31 pm

Hello! I'm new to this forum and wanted to introduce myself!

My name is Brittany and my husband and I went to BM last year. It was my first time and his 2nd time. We decided not to go this year, but are anxious to go again next year! I'm not sure if I'll be an "every year" burner, but at least every other year. 8)

Our first year was a bit tricky, with less-than-stellar company (tweaked out companion) and an ancient pop-up trailer that should have been junked. We toyed with the idea of renting an RV but have settled upon the idea of creating our own hexayurt. http://hexayurt.com

We are also considering building a theme camp, but that remains to be seen.

I look forward to conversing with you all!

Brittany

Welcome to eplaya!

We built a hexayurt this year too! I thought it was great. We airconditioned ours. It's the best of both worlds--it's more like a tent so you don't feel as isolated as in an RV, yet you don't have the dust and it's cool! You can believe we'll be bringing it again next year.

Welcome BrittanyBurning! :D The hexayurt design sounds simple and easy enough. In 09' we are going back to a PVC tubing shade structure design that faired/maintained well in years past (low cube design w/ tarp ziptied.) Plus it's modular (could make 1,2, 4 and hook them all together). As fair as sleeping goes, though, back to the good ol' "pop-a-tent" :) )
