well, i think i’m pretty much set.
made the big food run today, getting all of the food to bring not only for our food shift but for our supplemental food run duties as well. it’s nice when you don’t have a set budget and they just say, “go buy it all at trader joe’s”. makes things nice and easy.
also, all the clothes are acquired, packed, and ready to go. i recently had this idea of wearing nothing but linen while i was out there: light, breezy, yet long sleeved to provide for sun protection. i borrowed some of hmc’s old linen digs, and then went out and got a couple of nice cotton/flax sleep shirts that were on sale for cheap which will also do the trick. and then i splurged on an all-cotton red kung fu outfit, which will be nice in case it’s not hot hot hot, but still a comfortable breathable natural fabric.
oh, and the bikes? i had lots of offers to borrow bike racks of various sorts, and i actually ended up with a spare trunk type bike rack that someone was giving up. after all that it turned out that there was spare room on the blyss abyss bike trailer after all, so we just put them on the big caravan to be done with it. sometimes, community rocks!
i think that’s mostly it. already got water, costumes, cameras and film. i just need to pack up the land cruiser, and then see if cheryl needs help cooking hummus and baba ganoush tomorrow.
playa, here we come! (in a couple of days, that is.)
Posted at August 30, 2004 7:23 PMplease please please take pictures?!?
especially of you two and the bikes
Mr. Alan,
Ed will surely provide you with any pictures he takes but I have never been drawn to the BM experience by pictures really. Well as old-timers possibly my virgin eyes will provide something delectable.
Thanks so much for your bikes. I haven’t seen them yet but I will email you the tales of our adventures. I intend to go out into to deep playa by my lonesome and lie on the sand looking at the sky by myself with my trusty steed at my side.
big smooches,
C-
