Burning Man 2003: Journal p. 12

Wednesday, cont. - Camp Sunscreen, where an acquaintance and her kid were. What a nice spread! They built a carpeted pen so their 16-month-old can't wander away. Their neighbor has a plastic playset and toys. The kids loved it all. Their wading pool kept the kids cool for a while. The dust flew right overhead. Late in the afternoon we headed home, exhausted.

The kids slept. I had a scalding hot shower courtesy of our sun shower. Looking at our water runoff I see that I showered with two cups of water. No playa drive for us today. We made a plate of fresh tomatoes, sliced, witha dusting of Cenofix (a Swiss mixture Omi Marga uses (which we bought in our recent visit to her in Germany)). It dissapeared quickly. During potlatch we met the maker of a shrimp & crab etouffe. A baker, he'll make some of the Hawaiian coffee I brought. (next page
