August first- count down to Rites of Passage!

August 1! That means that this 2 year wait is almost over. Before he died, my little brother always wanted to go to burning man, so we are taking him. After that, I will move on from all the death and disaster of that terrible year.

Over the weekend we worked on the solar system and the swamp cooler. The solar system was a birthday gift from my son, Frederick. It will run our fans, keep our camera's charged and maybe some lights at night. He had the parts mailed here, but we are hooking it up. I think that it is figured out now. Because it will be over a hundred degrees in the shade, the swamp cooler is going to be great for those daytime naps. You can read about them here:

If you go here, you can zoom in and look around at the city we will call home in just a few weeks. (this was a picture taken of last year's city) http://www.gigapan.org/gigapans/fullscreen/66285/
