It's getting down to the final days before Burning Man, and of course I have about five million loose ends to tie up. I have procured and learned how to properly drape a sari and I made a battery operated tutu that glows three different colors. I have the necessary supplies for a fully operational desert black and white polaroid photo studio. M has an official English bobbie's uniform and full tea service for 8, with extra shortbread for Kyra. Between the two of us, we have more bizarre costume stuff than we know what to do with. We will probably never, ever use it outside of Black Rock City, Nevada.

I am looking forward to a week spent in 108 degree weather. I'll be back with pictures and a lot of playa-dusty stuff that will end up sitting, still packed, in the garage until next year.

See you in September!
