Speaking of - will you be coming to BM this year? I'd love to meet you in person so much!!! Just thrifted the first outfit peice last week - I'm so pumped! Might go thrift shopping some more this weekend :) Been trying to think of some funny thing to print on some stickers to vandalise the place a bit. Still got time, but I'm feeling inspired.
I thought I was going to go one last time, this year... but then my wife and I found cheap tickets to Europe, and decided to do our honeymoon instead! (Only a year-and-a-half late!) So no Burning Man for me this year. Maybe next year. My plan is to go to the "big burn" one more time, completely stripped down: On my motorcycle, camping alone, out near the walk-in camping area. When I went back to Burning Man about fifteen years ago, I went alone on my motorcycle. So going back one last time in the same, stripped-down way, seems like good closure to me. And yes ... I want to meet you, too! Very much. I think we would have a LOT of fun talking about traveling and adventures and marketing and working for yourself and all that stuff. I look forward to the day when we can make that happen...
We are figuring out where to go now. Stay in London for a couple of days to see friends, and make my regular pilgrimage to the British Museum and Dali Museum. Probably the bass guitar store in Camden. Then rent a car and head west to Stonehenge, on the way to Devon. I have friends out there with a lovely B&B in a 15th c. mill. Then north across the Devon Moors, to Bath. Around the corner to Cardiff to see the Dr Who Museum (wife is a big fan!). Work our way north through Oxfordshire (more friends there), York, Fountains Abbey, up to Hadrian's Wall. Then Glasgow to Islay for a tour of the distilleries - especially Laphroaig - and then back to the mainland for... Scottish Highlands? Edinburgh? Maybe a cheap flight to Budapest for a long weekend, to see my friends there? From Budapest to Paris on a train? Or maybe Berlin? Stockholm? Sarajevo? Then back to Heathrow for the flight back home. (Virgin Air upper economy class!) We shall see how it all works out...
