Wednesday morning - ready for departure
Thursday morning on the playa
This is the tag the art placement team uses to mark the location of every piece of art on the playa
Thursday - camp at the end of the day
Friday morning - setup begins. The city is empty
Friday morning - tower materials are moved to the sight
Friday morning - the Man in the backround
Friday . . .
Friday - Magpie and Schugger kick ass on the camp shade
Friday at sunset
Saturday - lights are added, the top is connected and the tower is rigged for raising
Too many lights actually - most of them needed to be removed . . . It was just too heavy and I didn't want to risk breaking the tower during the raising
calm Sunday morning - we raise the tower - Magpie, Schugger, KGB, Estero & Machine. Very smooth and easy - no problems.
Sunday - the shade structure takes form
I'm thinking about how nice it will be to have some shade
Monday - end of the day - shade cloth is on
Tuesday night - only some lighting around the base needs to be completed

people really loved the shade
Vikings gather for a battle
tall grass bends in the wind - just before it breaks!
I dismantled the top two sections of the tower during the wind storm
