i went to shakori this past weekend, like i've done so many times over the past few years, knowing it would be my last one for a while. it was wonderful. the sun and the mud and the music made their appearances, and i basked in all of it. it was maybe my laziest shakori to date - i spent about half my time there in a hammock (guys, i'm sold. i need an eno stat.) and fell asleep by 11:00 each night, cinderella style, except instead of turning into a pumpkin i turned comatose and had to be walked to my tent because my eyes would not stay open. but i saw holy ghost, and dr. bacon, and big fat gap and bombadil and ancient cities and big mean sound machine. i ate curry with rice and samosas from the indian place like i do every year and mexican corn on the cob from the new food booth for the first time. i met so many wonderful new people (hello cat hat! hello chicken! hello jonah!) and saw so many people i love who i rarely see outside of shakori. it was a beautiful way to spend the weekend, and i am so grateful that a magical little place like shakori exists.
my phone stayed in my tent for the most part, so pictures are sadly few and far between, but here are a few of the moments i experienced.

highlight of shakori: wearing this bear costume. there was a bubble gun in the pocket that i made ample use of. |
happy shakori!
