| September 7, 2006 | We Faced Our Fears at Burning Man 2006 |
Chris was a Burning Man virgin this year.  (Not me, My virgin burn was 1999 -- you can read my journal about it. I also went out to the desert in 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, and 2005...) During our drive to Nevada, I asked him what he most feared about Burning Man."Seeing naked guys kinda freaks me out," he said. "Oh, you mean dude-ity?" I said. "Yeah, I guess." We arrived on the playa at 10:30 p.m. on Tuesday after driving for over 13 hours (it's a much longer drive from Los Angeles, than from SF!) It was the middle of a dust storm, and we were freezing cold and tired and both had to pee. It was very hard to find a space to camp. In the past, I had almost always camped with a group of friends in a theme camp with a reserved spot. We drove around for at least a half hour, being turned away from every spot, until we arrived at 4:30 and Hope. We set up camp in the dust storm and it wasn't until much later that we viewed the theme camp directly across the street: called Our Lady of Schlongs: Meat Inspection camp. Talk about Chris facing his fears!!! Needless to say over the course of the week, they had a lot of visitors and we saw a lot of schlongs. They gave us the best bloody marys I have ever had. So spicy and delicious. Check out all my photos from Burning Man 2006. Labels: burningman, chris, dudity, photos, slang posted by Jess Barron @ 10:50 PM
