Scratches Left in the Hardpan

I am the Black Rock Lobster, superhero and protector of Black Rock City. Herein are my reports of patrols and experiences there in the jeweled city on the sands of a vanished sea.

Black Rock Lobster is commonly reffered to as "Lobsterman."

BACK FROM BURNING MAN 08

I have just returned from BURNINGMAN '08.

Love that place.

However, two week-long events, back-to-back that transport you to an alternate reality can be taxing on the body.

I am exhausted.

After 6 months of steady preparation, creating several new costumes, two suits of white armor, building a playa-proof Art Gallery, and making artistic trinkets for gifting, I almost lacked the energy to attend the event itself!

I made final repairs to the Lobster Suit, finished off my first Black Rock Lobster comic book, and loaded it all into a big white van.

The drive across Nevada was uneventful.

I will be adding accounts of each day We spent and a picture or two. Stay tuned.
