Working on the Post Office was a lot of work, but also a life changing experience. I hate the term "life changing", but that is what it was. Building with natural materials is a ton of work, and also a whole lot of fun at the same time. The end result is mind blowing. It has definitely opened my eyes to different ways of living. The whole structure cost almost nothing. Why aren't the hobos of the world doing this? I actually have money and am considering this option one day. It was also great to do something besides sit at home twiddling my thumbs. Especially something that had great educational value.
Bonnaroo itself is a whole nother world. I can't even begin to describe half the things I saw. We got the best camping of the festival through our visual design volunteer work. It was a tiny gated lot hidden in the very center of all the stages called "the Bone Yard". This spot is way better then any VIP section because we were actually already inside the festival at all times. Sharing this camping heaven were a group of gypsie circus performers that called themselves "The Art of Such 'N Such". Pretty much even relaxing at our site was never a dull moment.
I got to see tons of amazing artists including Bon Iver, Grizzly Bear, MGMT, and Snoop Dog. The best show of the weekend though was definitely Of Montreal. Think Bowie's Labyrinth.
Here's some of the photos from the whole experience. Many were lost due to a not so sober friend trying to make room for more, but there's still some good ones. I'm working on getting them organized and uploading more so check back at some point.
