I have no shady tree to lie under and my henna is almost gone. The
company is much less interesting these days. Frequent hottubbing and
swimming is hell on henna. I miss researching this extensively.
Hopefully more can make it next year.

: Yes, I'm coping with Sirius-withdrawal right now...I'd much rather
be
: under the trees playing with henna than in the office...
: I learned lots as well...everything that Zimra said, plus:
: 1. If you bandage your hennaed and latexed foot with lots of tp and
: tape, you can put your sandal on and walk back to your tent, and
even
: to the bathroom and back, but it probably wouldn't hold up for a
whole
: day of walking. (this was done AFTER I saw what had happened to
: Zimra's beautiful design...)
: 2. Always wear sunscreen. And if you are going to get a full-body
: design, make sure that sunscreen is liberally applied to those bits
: that won't get hennaed. We should have had some spray sunscreen
: (along with the bug spray)...I feel SO sorry for the woman with the
: full-body henna and the very special sunburn.... :-(
: 3. The more henna artists, the merrier. It was great meeting and
: playing henna with so many people...It would so excellent to have
25-
: 30 henna artists next year...just think of all the ideas to share,
: patterns to think about, tales to tell, and fun to be had!!
