Burning Man

Photos from Burning Man 2014. The art theme this year was "Caravansary."

I camped with friends at Ganesh Camp. We had a regulation clay tennis court, an Indian desert tent and other fun stuff. It was an amazing time! An early rainstorm made for a memorable Burning Man. I was part of early setup and stayed until the end of Exodus on Tuesday.

Soggy Court

There was a storm early Monday morning with thunder and lightning, hail and sheets of rain. Puddles covered the playa at dawn. As luck had it, we had just finished rolling the tennis court the previous afternoon. The rain saturated the flattened court, and it would soon dry and harden into a thick crust... the perfect court surface!

The playa on Monday morning was sticky mud pudding. They closed the gate for some time to allow the playa to dry out.

The rain delayed opening the tennis court as planned on Monday; however, by Tuesday the court was hard and dry. Game on! The Ganesh tribe played the first match.
