OK, Load 'Em Up! in Northern California http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r21032883 en Thu, 08 Jan 2009 17:56:22 EDT Thu, 08 Jan 2009 17:56:22 EDT Re: OK, Load 'Em Up! http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21048184 shinjuru : You really do have to expect the worse, when heading for Burning Man. Like the Boy Scout motto, "Be prepared."

When I first went in 1995, it rained so much, but it quickly dried out due to it being so damn hot. Micro thunderstorms would sweep through the playa. Dust storms would kick up from out of no-where. Every year after that I was prepared for whatever mother nature tossed our way.

It really was the most fascinating new experience at that time. Each year we brought more friends and it just ballooned. I'm sure it was the same way for everyone else who enjoyed the experience. If you're into trying something just once, then Burning Man should be on that list. Truly unforgettable.

So you mean I'm not gonna get to see any pictures of it. :(

I've never gone - it's way way tooooooo hot there for me. :D
Here's some pictures for ya. Well, not Burning Man but high desert, it was hot, in and around Goldfield, Nevada. Mebbe you could call it 'Sleeping Man' or 'Recumbent Man'....

Hey, you can see 'Burning Man' pictures anywhere. Plus, there's a rattlesnake and bonus pictures of the Oakland, CA 'Sleeping Dog' event. :)

They did have a dust storm the day before he got there.
