Time Frame: August 2 – 28, 2010 Miles Driven: 2825 After a way too brief of a stop in St. Louis, it was time to continue west towards Burning Man. It seems every year we find ourselves in this predicament – way too little time to traverse some of the most beautiful scenery our country […]

Burning Man Pictorial – Day 8
The last official day of Burning Man. At 3pm, if you’re in Center Camp – you’re told Burning Man is officially closed and to go home, or start helping with clean up efforts. The city is clearing out – there is more open space around you, and you can see the banks of porta-potties across […]
Burning Man Pictorial – Day 7
Sunday. The day of the Temple Burn. For many folks, they come to Burning Man to see The Man burn, which happens Saturday night. It’s the big focal event of the week. The iconic structure that has been our beacon for the week is burned in a huge celebration of fireworks, dancing, art cars and […]
Burning Man Pictorial – Day 6
There’s only one photo that needs to be shared on burn day.. It was an extremely windy and dusty evening, this photo pretty much sums up of the quick flash burn nature of last night. Post burn, many of our campmates returned to Camp Nomadia, and we had a spontaneous dance party to celebrate together.
Burning Man Pictorial – Day 5
Friday was another awesome day of our Camp Nomadia community coming together. Having a camp with a central hang out area, creates an environment where people can connect and feel they have some place to come home to. Burning Man is full of exciting, awesome and overwhelming things to see, do and experience. And sometimes, […]

Today was our big day of hosting a […]
The “Time Frame” at Burning Man 2010
This year for Burning Man I pitched an art project idea to the Center Camp Cafe art team, and was accepted! My project is called “Time Frame”. The “Time Frame” is a classic antique table-top mirror, with the mirror removed, mounted on top of a 5 foot tall self-supporting pole. Looking through the frame gives […]
Burning Man Pictorial – Day 3
The official Day 3 of Burning Man for us started with an early wake-up to take part in the 4th Annual Black Rock City 5K run. Chris kicked butt and completed his first ever organized run! As I’m still struggling with being a morning person (particularly with running), I opted instead to do a photo […]
Burning Man Pictorial – Day 2
Today at Camp Nomadia was an epic adventure in community building. When we ‘UNorganized’ this camp (which is now at about 80 folks), we asked folks to bring parts to construct a central shade structure). Our camp came through in amazing ways.. we spent a couple hours together today bonding over constructing a shade structure […]
Burning Man Pictorial – Day 1
The gates for Burning Man opened 6 hours early last night.. so we’ve been up non-stop welcoming our Camp Nomadians (and protecting our land claim). It has been an absolutely delightful day of meeting so many new folks (many of whom are full time nomads like us), as well as greeting dear friends to […]
