Krishna Camp Road Trip: California to Florida.
No adventure is complete without a good deal from REI.
We staked out the once-a-month-all-returns-on-super-cheap-sale-especially-after-christmas event in Berkeley, CA. We stood in long lines awaiting our chance to get a ticket, which allowed us a 20 minute shopping spree at 10:20-10:40am. Great stuff, super cheap, drives people wild. The crew: Nitai, Arjuna (AJ) & Rasikananda.
After Burning Man 2007 AJ moved to Berkeley and opened up a bike shop, having earned hands-on experience with hundreds of Burning Man bikes. He's systematic, methodical, attentive to detail and a smooth talking salesman. AJ is always smooth, even his rough drafts inspire awe. Rasik and AJ worked together with the Avatar Studios crew on The Simple Temple: Chowpatty, check it out for your enlightenment pleasure.
This is AJ's shop. I took the snap a blink too late.
This is the Land Rover our buddy Madhavendra purchased for Burning Man 2007. He swapped it with us for a slick Macbook Air. We decked it out at REI's blowout sale (a $450 roof rack for $20!!)
The discount roof-rack had a few minor problems which we easily fixed with AJ's assistance.
We've just fried up some nummy tofu for the road, and said our farewells to Sri Sri Radha Madan Mohan, Sriman Mahaprabhu, Laksmi Nrsimha and Srila Prabhupada at ISKCON Silicon Valley (ISV).
The road ahead lies ripe with adventure!
More soon on our way to the fabled land of Alachua!

renounce your cheap non-stick frying pan. get a cast iron skilet for real crunchy cred.
