I am so happy to share. Any questions?
It was a looooong trip...I was so happy to get my feet in the ocean and see a gray sky though.

I've sort of always wanted to go but sometimes have troubles with mass crouds over any long period of time so I'm not sure I'd be a good "fit". Stimulation overload?

That and I get a little OCD over water supply, even whilst backpacking next to a stream or lake. Did I filter enough to get through the night?! :joker:

Good stuff, feels like I've been there now. That is a LOT of photos!
Funny, I'd probably be up in the hills somewhere exploring, that's too damn many people for me. We're all wired so differently.
This is my favorite of the lot believe it or not. You look so happy! Cute pic.

Thanks Hambone! I was pretty blissed out from being on the road and seeing that blue, blue lake.

Ritter: Burning Man really can be overstimulating but you can also chill on your own in your bus or bike out to an empty spot on the playa and just look out at those amazing hills. Believe it or not, I sleep like a rock there.

You slay me, too! :cheers: Good one!

The first time I went to the slide show, it was almost impossible to watch it was so slow. I went back and it's much better now.

Paige, you saw and shot some amazing images!

Thanks Peter! And if you can believe it, my images cannot possibly explain just how big and amazing and creative Burning Man is.

Were there Helicopter rides also or ones flying over? I don,t know if I will have opportunity to take El on that one. But sure liked seeing the Ol' hippie artist :flower: think I even reconized a few.

Gads girl, ya got me thinking about Hooping - and that is a very good thing. Let me know if you want to open up a studio/class in a very kick back Mt town in So. Cal. I got the space.

After Deschutestrout 4, I can't look at a picture of Paige without seeing the movie of her hooping in my head. It really is amazing to watch Barb. She walks around like normal with the hoop just doing it's thing spinning around her. Very cool!

Hey Barb,

You could actually get flights over BRC if you asked nicely. ;-)
There were some mysterious helicopters overhead as well. Who knows?

I would LOVE to do a class! I am hoping (hooping?) to get my teaching certification in a couple of weeks -- yep, teaching! My passion is making them and I am working on a business model for a website where I custom make hoops...or rather, it's in my head and it looks nice.

My hat's off to the guy in drag hooping in a dress and high heels in the sand. I don't think I could ever be that coordinated! LOL!
