Now its dawn in mojave
The stressing part of burning man is over for me. I got the car all loaded and i’m on my way, caravaning with Kj aka ohmigod on the playa. We’re in a rest stop on the spooky desert route.
I learned a lot in my three day burn prep.
1. I have my stuff together and I have too much stuff. I did pare down quite a bit. It’s empowering to throw stuff out.
2. You can never have too much stuff. Harbor frieght is awesome! There are a few locations and it is a great source for inexpensive tools and supplies. Mini bullhorn: $10. Nuff said.
3. Ozzie Dots on Hollywood is the best costume in la. They really cater to the burner crowd. Don’t hesitate to ask the staff for help. They know why you’re there.
4. Lowe’s outshines home depot 10 times out of 10.
5. Uniformity of bins is a good thing. It makes for a flat surface to work on when packing.
6. Packing is way more fun with a friend or two. Thanks Nati and Sarah!
7. The call to become a were tarantula will be unmistakable. Everywhere I an delighted by spiders. I’m loving the huge new campmate we just got. Costco us awesome for me for that last minute perfect thing.
8. I can’t wait for my friends to get to the playa!
9. Packing for 13 days on the playa and 13 days in Denver are very different endeavors. Now to try and keep some clothes clean.
10. Sometimes, you see amazing art cars when you aren’t even at burning man.
