Burning Man 2009: Love

Burning Man 2009

Just ran across this (and this) photo on Flickr. One of my favorite things to do post-burn is to scan the recent Burner uploads. It's totally therapeutic...helps with the post-Playa funk. Pictured here are Jimmoi and Lizziebot. This was taken at sunrise on Sunday at Opulent Temple where Team Shutterilla & Team Limmie danced well into the morning hours. Yes, they really are THAT amazing together! Mrtwism could not have captured a more perfect Playa moment of this radiant couple. Bravo!

Shortly before leaving for the Playa I managed to break away from my all-consuming Burning Man prep to attend L-bot's bridal shower. What a celebration! When Kirsten and X-bot are involved with the party planning you can expect nothing less than sheer brilliance...right down to the smallest detail.

Indeed it is, already...

It was an absolutely beautiful afternoon celebrating the future Mrs. Greenway. For a few more snaps of the festivities click here.

Last Saturday Farilla took me to my first Dead concert. He's a big fan of the Grateful Dead and I'm Farilla's biggest fan so it all works out. As soon as the show ended (11:30pm'ish) we hopped in the car and set off for Granite Pass. Sunday marked the 1 year anniversary of Team Limmie-ization. Not even The Dead could keep us from this momentous celebration! A couple of stops and one complete freeway closure later we arrived at The Pass. It must have been about 4am by the time my feet actually hit the dance floor. Thank you, My Love, for getting us there safely! We danced until the first sign of day break. Then, those who were still awake converged on The Church to watch the sunrise together just as Jimmoi & Lizziebot did 52 weeks earlier...

I've been living in LA for 14 years and this is the first time I've set foot in the Rose Bowl Flea Market Swap Meet Extravaganza!  I went with Pros, yo!  I have now been schooled in the ways of the Swap Meet Extraordinaires...and I will remain forever grateful AND humbled by their mad haggling skillz!  

Almost as tall as me...
