Day 32 – Today we met a great guy named Dale and a few of his friends stopped by once in awhile.

Day 31 – New campers came into town and set up next to us this morning. Nick and Lara were great neighbors and we really enjoyed chatting with them. It is hard to meet someone here that is not nice or not open to saying hi. This community is filled with the most giving and caring people in the world, and yes there are a bunch of people from all around the world that come out for this event of temporary society. Though, most of the people are from California and than a bunch from the Northwest, Utah, Colorado, and Canada to name a few other places. It really shows that even with 37,000 people you can create an open minded gifting economy where everyone is extremely respectful of each other and also looks out for the well being of each other also. It is too bad that we cannot seem to create as nice of a community that gets along in the states with as many people. There are neighborhoods that have great moral and care for each other, but nothing to this scale in the states. I think people are too afraid.
