i am trying to find a way to post petting services for burners..maybe the editors can reply to my email and work something out with me . i have been going to brc for the last 13 yrs in a row . i am unable to go this year , and so i was hoping maybe i could care for some of the critters that get left behind . it is 3 am as i write this ,sorry if its a bit spacey….
maybe i can post my services , similar to the way ride share posts work ,just contact me so i can get pointed in the right direction , and help my fellow burners who might not have confirmed care taker for their pets
thank you

Holy Shit, Batman!!! Fabulous work. Looks like steel is involved. Wish I was there, seeing these build pics. Thanks for the blog for those of us missing Early Man.

Getting goosebumps. My art project — Polygonia — gets sited around the Man Base this year. Four mini-sites, 100′ off each corner of the base. We are in our last week of work — and everyone is completely exhausted — but it is truly an honor to get such awesome placement. (Especially for someone who’s only been to BM once and has never done ANY kind of art project before!) Really, really looking forward to seeing what the residents of BRC can create with all of our building pieces. Load-up is Saturday…. see you all on Wed!!!!!!

I like the innovation of setting the base at a 45 degree angle, instead of upright as usual.

Thank you, thank you! Your early efforts are exciting and inspiring – can’t wait to see the finished structure, less than 2 weeks!

Dang, I wish I were there already! My man is running one of those cranes. Some kind of skill goes into all that rigging. And what photos!
