Public space:
Dome – We have:
29 Red poles (51.75″). We need one plus 4 rebuilds (because bent?) for 5 total (may want a few extra’s too)
80 Yellow (59.5″). We need 4 rebuilds plus any extras we want
55 Blue (60.5″). Need 3 rebuilds plus any extras
If we wrap the same way as last year, we’ll need more 1.5″ washers and 500 pink zip ties
The old wrap is getting nasty and stretchy, so a new cover would be great (I haven’t heard from Amber on this since her FB offer)
Public Pink Shade Structures.
All poles, connectors and tarps were functional and packed
We could use 5-10 bolts. 3/8th inch, I believe.
Water Bar – all parts were present and packed
Couches – 6 went into storage plus the two heavy pink chairs. All fur was left on them.
Chairs – none in storage (all brought home or tossed)
Carpets – we kept it all there in storage. 3-4 more rooms (~10×10 or so) worth could be put to use, but isn’t necessary.
Fire Garden was brought home?
Heart Arch is packed
Spires – Kiwi kept, so we’d need to bring those back with us (if we can have them)
Ice Cream Freezer – went with Christian to SF
Pillows -
We packed 180 of them that still had covers
70 pillows with no covers (the ones we brought home to wash – 20 of which didn’t have covers at all)
Someone asked us to buy new bean bag foam. Not sure if that needs to make the priority list…
Other inventory for public space:
108 yards of pink stretch fabric (medium quality)
Extra lumber – Four 2x4x10fts – 4 2x4x8 ft. 2 2x1x8ft.
Bike rack
3 tables
Shower board and pipes
3500 W generator (the one left from 2010)
Private space
i Heart Balls went back to SD
Two costco shade structures seemed fully functional
Couches, furniture, playtech – everything was packed into storage unit
One matress (maybe two?)
The little green folding chairs that Shawn found
Two big rolls of blue and yellow fabric
Boom box
NEED
Brooms
Basket ball wipe broom (?)
30 pairs work gloves
10 pair basic pliers
10 box cutters
10 pr scissors
100 more feet of extension cord
More ratchet straps
“Sometimes the best moments are the small ones, like the vintage stainless steel water fountain (on little wheels) that shyly followed you and then nudged you to take a drink, and wouldn’t take “no-thanks” for an answer!”
“It was very early Tuesday morning when my girlfriend and I stumbled into your pink lounge. The sun was about to come up and there was a man on a trike playing a classical loop that was quite literally tickling the back of our spines. I’m not quite sure if the lounge was open persay but we stayed and cuddled anyways for around an hour. It was the best night cap this hopeless romantic could have ever asked for.
Out of 7 days of cacophony this simple, seemingly pointless story was my absolute favorite moment on the playa. Before this night/morning, I had never experienced that level of intimacy with someone. I don’t like to dwell on and live in the past but this is one memory I can’t shake and causes tears of joy to surface from my heart every time I contemplate it.
Thank you.”
