Art Of Burning Man 2018
So much art and of course I did not see it all. In hindsight I wish I would had made more of an effort to see more of the art. I need to remember that for the future. Here is a fraction of the art of Burning Man 2018.
Bloom. A 40 foot tall jellyfish that first appeared on the playa last year.
I don't know this art's proper name, so I will call him Samurai.
With Open Arms We Welcomed That Which Would Destroy Us.
"With one of her aspects she welcomes and seduces; with the other she voraciously devours. She promises everything you’ve been hoping for. All she needs in return is your humanity."

McKenzie climbed up....look how happy and cute she looks!
Passage. I really liked this one. A man made of steel walking and touching some wheat.
The wheat represents the food we need to survive. Beautifully made, lots of detail.
Me and the steel man holding hands. I painted my nails blue as in bluenose pitbull. ❤️
A painting inside Center Camp, I think the little sailing robots were so cute....
Come-Million I found not too far from the trash fence (outskirts of the playa).
Shimmering with thousands of lights in the dark, beautifully lighting up the night.
Lodestar.
Great Train Wreck. These two trains faced each other on a track, one evening they collided and wrecked into each other and went up in flames.
I got a ticket at the train station. In the background, Larry Harvey's hat.
Me in front of The Rainbow Bridge.
Night at the Climb In. I heard they had to rope this off after somebody fell down from it.
Rabid Transit. Very impressive mutant vehicle spewing fire and propane.
In Every Lifetime I Will Find You. This one I very much regret not seeing and I searched for it my last night at the playa but I could not find it. I hope it will be back again, if not.... perhaps it will be out there somewhere in the default world. So pretty! Somebody else that saw it sent me this photo. I wish I had a photo of this couple during sunset.
Last but not least....Larry Harvey.
I also wish I would had seen a dog named Dot. This is the story behind it, "This art piece was done in memorial of a Burner who passed away recently. His dream was to build a sculpture of his beloved dog Dot to share with the playa. His campmates lovingly fulfilled his dream this year with this furry, lovable piece. People were invited to leave notes on the art piece and to vocally interact with it."

On the way to Vegas I stopped in McDermitt located on the Nevada Oregon state line, to fill up the car with gas, while there I visited a very interesting place and talked a bit to a person with many stories to tell, White Buffalo. Make sure to stop there if you go through McDermitt, well worth it. 
When in Vegas I noticed these kinds of surveillance cameras in different locations, I have never seen them before. 
Spent one fun evening on Fremont Street where people of all kinds of backgrounds get along and have a good time. If you are ever down and out or want an exciting career change you can start busking down on Fremont Street, where even men can get decent tips for showing some skin....perhaps a gig for you? 
I am not sure if these guys are for hire for their "services" they are boasting about? I did not inquire. Perhaps inspiration for a t-shirt for you? 
I could not believe it when three songs by Linking Park played on the Viva Vision, Chester was singing with his amazing voice above me. WOW! ❤︎ 
More art from Burning Man has found a home in Las Vegas, this time one of the giant puppets. Pretty! 
A mural that I liked. 
I found five cents outside a CVS.....great success! 
Under the lights of The Plaza. 
Took the babies to Red Rock. 
Showgirl Video..... 
You have to support the working ladies. 
Took a tour of the Alien Cathouse located in Amargosa Valley (Nye County), my first ever brothel tour. Got guided around the premises by a nice girl, Allie that told us it was her first time working in a brothel, she was two weeks into a three week stay. What else can I recall....she said it costs $20/day in "rent" for the girls to stay (at this particular location), the first month (or stay) is free and you have your own room and bathroom, with TV and WiFi included of course. The kitchen is shared and the meals are free. The rooms were nice and comfortable and there was a gym area. Allie loved it there and was planning on moving down to Las Vegas from Washington state on her next time off to be closer to her new place of employment. And she was very happy with her choice of work and she said she did plenty of research before making a decision about it. She seemed nice and I wish her the best of luck. There were a few other ladies present during our visit. The Alien Cathouse used to be under the ownership of Dennis Hof but has a new owner since a few months now. 
The car forest in Goldfield.....a small town full of things to see. 
Stokes castle in Austin. 
And I got back to my destination in Oregon this morning. I am already planning another trip to Nevada to do some more exploring sometime next year.....
