Vancouver, Seattle, Portland, Mt. Shasta, Reno, Black Rock City, Reno, San Francisco, Redwoods Hwy, Oregon Coast, Portland, Seattle, Vancouver.
Flowers in my hair and fog in my eyes, I sure am happy to be back in Canada after our 3+ week journey. Our van is made of awesome! Still purring like a kitten, even through the close-to-unbearable heat of the Nevada deserts. Gosh, the States are just beautiful... though they smell like farts. "Did you toot or is that just America?" ;)

Burning Man was the most fun I've ever had. Like, f'real. It's incredibly hard to grasp all of it - the playafires, tank bicycles n' fire-breathing robotz, the fairy costumes, walking trees n' fluorescent bats, cupcakes cars, desert sunflowers and submarine-mobiles. Every single degree you turn your head, another flash of amazement and awe overwhelms your senses and you can't help but run towards the trampolines, Thunderdome, or tripod alien. Random pizza experience, psychedelic lectures, sensual workshops and amazing connection buzz with almost every face you meet. An incredible bicycle ride deep into the desert, beyond the sounds of the festival and out to where the sage bushes grow... geeeeez, are there words to express how totally badass it is to see key members of yer posse out in the desert?









oh, swOOooOon... i lub this guy!







It's impossible to snap photos of it all... but I've got a bunch more photos of art, structures and random folk in my Black Rock City set on Flickr... check 'em out! :)
