Is anyone else going to Burning Man? I unfortunately lost the lottery (boo!) but was able to get a ticket through my camp (Crossroads, a live music camp) (yay!).

It’ll be my first year, and I’d love to meet up with others who got a Golden Ticket!

I’m going! I got two tickets in the lottery, plus I got my art project approved! I’m in a camp that is not anything in particular, but have been going to Burning Man in since 2009. It’s generally difficult to try to meet up because no one’s plans usually remain in place. Our camp only got about 7 tickets out of 25 or so (so far, but I’m still hoping!). You can drop by our camp for a drink in any case, I’m usually bartending in some fashion around noon most of the time, unless there is something critical (heh) is going on.

Yay! Where is your camp, do you know? We’re at 9:00 & Esplanade. I’m totally excited & terrified!

Nothing is really set just yet. We’re at 3 o’clock and somewhere way out. I can PM you later once we figure out where we’re at.

I’m entering panic mode, but have made significant progress on the art project!
