I'm not from Cali (originally from Indiana/Michigan/Massachusetts/Texas), but I live here now. Alcohol would be a BAD idea because if you pass out in the desert, there won't be a hospital for miles around... I don't plan on having any sex or doing any drugs, and just want to have a good time (yes, without sex/alcohol/drugs 😛 ).

What's a burning man party?

Looks like I'll be driving to Santa Ana tonight to take an ATOT member out to dinner and borrow his camping gear. 🙂

I have a sleeping bag or two rolled up in the garage. Each has weatherproof nylon outside, and flannel lining on the inside. Guaranteed to leave you warm no matter what the temp drop.

Also have a tent that's my parents', but from previous experience has been a bit of a bitch to setup and, well... looks like it's out of the 70's cuz it is. 😛

I could loan you both so long as you don't get any alcohol, barf or other bodily fluids ( :Q 😉 ) on it. But I'm all the way over here in Bellflower, and seein' as I'm behind on some homework and studying my ass off for an exam Thursday evening (summer class--NEED an 'A' here), I couldn't manage a trip to your place until late Thursday/early Friday at the very least unfortunately.

Either way, hope you have some mega fun. Level-headed as you are, I know you'll stay off dem drugs. Let us know how it goes. 🙂

Thanks so much for the offer, LordUnum.. but I think I should be okay. I'll let you know if anything happens otherwise, though... I really appreciate it! 🙂

Oh crap, forget what I said earlier, I thought you meant "Dessert Party", not "Desert Party". I'm an idiot. 😱

You're going to the wrong party then!

There should be really good music, though... plus, I've never been camping before, so this would be a first for me in terms of "roughing it". 🙂
 
The best place to go camping is near water. Either a river or near the ocean. I went camping near the ocean several times.. the wave sound is SO relaxing.

Agreed, it sounds like either:
a- a bunch of older hippies or hippy wannabe 20 year olds
b- a bunch of ravers that don't want to be known as ravers.

Either way, look for a bunch of flower children, naked people, pot, beer, other club drugs, & Phish T-shirts.

That being said, if I lived about 6 hours south....I'd be there but only if I could share a sleeping bag with someone.
