WoW. What an epic burn. This years Burningman was by far, THE. BEST. BURN. EVER. I got to take David to his first burn, which was amazing, but it was so much more than that... the people we camped with were amazing, the art we found was mind blowing, and the live music that our camp produced every night was breathtaking! Everyone in camp has come to know and love my wonderful top hat, BOB... "don't go home without it" is my motto with him! I never wander around the playa without him adorning my head :) Watching the temple burn was ridiculous! Biggest temple burn EVER! I made so many amazing friends, and I was totally inspired for our wedding! I knew I would find something out there that would kick the inspiration into full gear, and boy did I ever! There was an art piece called "Wet Dreams" way out on the playa somewhere... It was an installation that Was a giant gazebo, with about 200 white parasol umbrellas, hanging at different heights from the top, all over, in and around it... they added running white lights dangling throughout, and created this amazing piece of art that made your mind wander to a place it had never been before! (The pic above is the best one I have from one of our adventures into it!) So, we have decided that at our wedding, we will have about 200 white umbrellas, hanging in the trees in front of the Victorian mansion we're getting married at :) All at different heights, and with the running xmas lights throughout... its going to be beautiful!
So... I'm still cleaning the dust off, still wrapping my head back around reality... but once again, the playa dust has infected me with love, inspiration, power and drive... thank you Burningman. You always remind me what's real.
