Got my ticket too!! not sure when, I have been away a lot.
My mom passed away yesterday, after a lung cancer dx 3 years ago. The last two weeks were pretty rough for her. Already I miss her, but I know she is now painfree and at peace.
One of the special things at Burningman is the Temple., People can write on it (bring a sharpie) or post pictures, memorials, etc to people who have passed. They burn it on Sunday night. I've never stayed for the Temple burn. I hear it is much more spiritual, reflective, etc, than the Man burn. One year Joan Baez was there and she sang at the temple burn.
I will find a way to honor my mom at the Temple burn.
