I didn’t realize how many of these I had made. Surely others I did not see on this quick look through old images.

the lamplighters in 2009
The Lamplighters are part of the Community Services Department at Burning Man. But, the Lamplighters are also more than that. They are a beloved group with a long history and tradition at this event. Around since 1993 they now have the role of lighting the cities nearly 1000 kerosene lanterns over nearly 3 miles of roads, acting as the street lights for the main streets in black rock city.
I have been with the lamplighters for 2 years and I have to say that it is a great group. Our mission to light the city ends up being the largest art project at the event in terms of scale and people involved. It is truly a huge effort with nearly 1000 people involved over the week, with 200 people devoting every day to the task. More on the lamplighters in the future.. but for now here are some images.
lamplighter village in 2009
My 2nd year with the Lamplighters was quite enjoyable. More about the lamplighters at some other time. But, it really started to feel like home this year. Familiar faces, familiar structures and a familiar schedule. I love our location in the city. And I love being responsible in some way for making the city look so cool. Here are some various images of some aspects of village life this year.

It happened. I think. Burning Man 2009. It had some sort of theme, but at this point I rarely notice. This was my third time. I spent the year again working with the lamplighters. I spent much of my time in the kitchen.. but that will be mentioned later. For now, some images around black rock city.
wyoming does not look bad
As far as looks go Wyoming isn’t a bad looking place… Like a lot of these areas there are quite a lot of snow fences. They have an interesting appeal.

Riding a train feels very civilized. If one can afford the time it takes it surely might be the best way to travel. Here are some views.

I love to see how all the little towns and villages across the country handle their water tower. Smaller towns end up with some of the more interesting solutions.

Some very interesting roadways in America. This one is in Colorado.
