… until the box truck blew a tire 30 miles from Gerlach

We left Reno about 8:30am on Saturday. Our trucks were quite heavy and were gonna take quite a while to get to the playa, so I went ahead to get placed.

Unfortunately I forgot to give the art car paperwork to Dennis, so I had to wait for him at the gate (they won’t let art cars in without the paperwork). This ended up being a four hour wait, at which point I was informed about the box truck and its tire issue.

A tire was fetched from Reno by Nate on his way in, and the mechanic in Gerlach got it put on around sundown.

So in the end, like every year, we were putting up canopies in the dark just to have a place to sleep. Entropy
