Burning Man 2005

I went a week early to volunteer and see the city developing. This year our camp of friends got a name: IRONICA. We were 20-25 people, and it felt like we were starting something special...

Big skies on an empty playa were a perk of being there before the event. Our campsite was ready a week before the event... I was there to help build Centercamp Cafe. This is how it looked when I arrived. The Man before his erection. Thomas made and brought us IRONICA T-Shirts. Thanks, Thomas!!!
