When this woman
wandered into camp she had a broken bicycle chain. She needed help
getting it fixed. It wasn't long before I was helping her with it. Some
time later the problem was solved. She came back the next day and we
talked a bit then. She is working on a Ph.D. in math in Arizona or
something like that. After that I went looking her, but I never found
her again. Oh well....
The camp across the
street from us was a bowling alley. When I dropped by they made me do a
shot of whiskey if I wanted to bowl. I rolled a spare, and then they
made me set up the pins for their next visitor. Every now and then they
had a good crowd for a while.
When these guys found
out that I could take a picture of them and they could download it from
this site they wanted a group shot with their fearless leader without
him knowing about it. They snuck up behind him, and I snuck into
position to snap it. He gave a start and came to about the same time I
walked away.
I tried to avoid
pulling out my camera when there was a dust storm, but this ant was too
good to pass up.
The Tuna Guys seem to
always be at Burning Man. This year they were hard to find. There was
no signage, but once I found them they were serving all comers big
morsels of fresh grilled tuna and pineapple from this grill, elk stew
from a huge pot, and strong drinks from another cooler. I was glad to
find them, because I'd been hungry for hours at the time.
The guy with the golden bug fixed my bike with some baling wire. The
rack had been falling off, and he attached it well enough for the next
ice run to work out well.
