an essential part of our journey has been about establishing community. life’s adventures are worth sharing, and sharing with a like minded community has been critical to our efforts. it was decided years back, when the thought of flying off as two solo butterflies just didn’t quite have the right ring to it. no, we knew early on, that it was essential to share with community and to be entertained by their adventures just the same.
it’s been a magical road thus far. we have only yet created a small part of what we see in our mad hatter minds, and yet still we have been surrounded and nourished by the best of all the worlds. so many of you have touched our hearts, inspired our creations, and have have shared so much love with us. you truly cannot even begin to imagine how truly magical and appreciative we are.

at the beginning of 2009 shone called out Cloud 9 2009. it was a theme, a way of life, that shone set for us. if any of you know shone you know he is determined by his intentions. decisions and just about all aspects of life were going to work their way into our adventure this year, as long as they fell in line with this theme…………
this past year was all about digging in. putting forth our efforts and love into creating the platform that would unite all of us bohos in a common area, on a dynamic level, and in the most playful, expressive, and magical way.

to do this, we had to set our intentions: to focus the majority of our time and effort to our internet world. the path was shining bright, and with the assistance of a super fly computer rock”geek”star (@indigothirdeye) we were able to start taking the momentum to a higher frequency. seriously, could not be this far without his love and support. shone and I have been able to handle all of the load thus far, but I can tell you it feels amazing to receive somebody’s genuine love and support, in areas where these two butterflies could have never accomplished on our own.
with that being said, every last thought, action, and feeling has been devoted to being hunkered down, spending more time in the basement than I thought possible………submerging for our tues and wed night bar shifts at amendment21 and that was about it.
the year has flown by………we had no plans on returning to the playa this year. we just felt it was way out of our abilities. and honestly it was, but when a magical fairy dances words and gifted tickets in front of our eyes………..how could we resist.
and it was the best decision made this year ever!
I sit here today and am so refreshed, and full of joy! Eager, ready, and willing to give the beginning of our new year the best that I have. Shone is also in a zone. I thought he was a machine before, but let me tell you, there is a fire in his heart, and madness on his mind. He loves to be in his laboratory creating, and after most of the year spent in research, demos, community forums, and chats, he is rocking the internet with his will.
——> you see in boho world, there is no try, only do, (thank you yoda!!!) and no matter how steep the road may look, there is no lack of effort to climb it. It may take longer than other outfits with deeper pockets and a grand support team, but alas, it’s not about the destination, it is simply about the journey.

this year’s experience has combined a lot of things and placed them blissfully in perspective for us. things we have essentially been discussing all year long, however with the synchronicities of burning man evolution 2009 and now burning man metropolis 2010, it’s been outrageous.

Goals and Key points we wish to continue to focus on and manifest:
1. continually learning how to live more with less: inspirations are coming in from:
* the venus project-spend more time creating, live sustainable, and in harmony, all while in a magical city that inspires us all to be magically delicious and able to live as our highest selves
* airstream- it’s going to be all about mobile living: because we can live anywhere and everywhere and maintain ultimate internet connections
* Ford diesel- can be converted
* mountain property- nourishment and lock down for creative projects, it’s just simply necessary
* sailing-life long projects manifesting and humming along
2. creative living and life navigations
* creative living and artistic collaborations are necessary for life. we all have strengths that add to a bigger picture. This can and does take form in daily living as well as all of our artistic projects. remember community we can accomplish anything with enough souls and beings connected who share strengths, common values, and common goals.
3. conscious sexual explorations:
* our sexuality and expression of it is vital to our existence. we honor, nurture, and strive to develop magically delicious connections, regardless of outcome, friendships are forever…..
4. Travel
* there are many many magical places we wish to visit: to capture and share the entertainment, the lifestyle, shoot with local expressing earthlings and add magical earthlings from all over the globe to our online playground.
5. our continual dedication to planet earth:
* she is always high in our thoughts, and helps guide our decision making process. developing a financial income that not only sustains our boho world, but that also will be invested into land, to preserve, and leave untouched, so that species can thrive and prosper. highly inspired by the angelina jolie and brad pitt land development model.
6. our need and self expectations are to do something amazing, something that is not ordinairy, and average. we want exceptional journeys, filled with spectacular adventures.
7. every last second is intentful, there is no time for anything less. our actions are delivered through kindness and compassion, and we receive just the same.
cheers to a magical playa camp that brought love and held a magical place for us to nestle into. sending our love and big hugs to you all!
