I've been having a fantastic summer, and now here comes the cresendo: It's time for Burning Man! I leave at dawn for the Black Rock Desert, and I'll be there for a little more than a week. I'm camping with Conexus, and our project is building a massive cathedral on the playa.
I have Burning Man on the brain all year, but this past month has been intense, what with working on the cathedral, getting my own gear together, and feeling the excitement build all around me as the time approaches. An overwhelming majority of the friends I've made in California are Burners, and in the past year I've really deepend bonds with many of these friends, and made quite a few wonderful new ones. The experience blew my mind the first year, when I hardly knew anyone, and now it just keeps getting richer.
Here's a shot of Black Rock City taken during Burning Man last year by the IKONOS satellite. You can't tell it from 400 miles up, but there are some amazing things going on down there.
Here we go!
