Mandatory Bloggery- Chopping Block Mania / Carmel Valley Night Sesh

My phone died and I had to get a new one.....

These are the first pics I took...Imagine if I only shot film?

That would be expensive...

Have a gander.

I saw this beautiful predatorial bird, probably eye balling up a meal down below.

She's a beaut, ain't she?

A co-worker of mine bought this off me for a wall hanger.

She was very pleased with it. It made me happy that she wanted to hang this up in her home.

Another beauty!

I love how this rail came out.

Routered thumb hole also.

Dancing around at Carmel Valley skatepark.

Squad.

Neil was ripping!

They have a full bar at Fashion Valley movie theatre.

Quasi man bun is punk.

The Poor House on 30th street, North Park.

It's a nice dive.

I need more of this in my life.

Stumble walks with the bub Robbie.

Straight to the fire.

Burn baby, burn!

Church of No  Ma'am.

Back at it with the chopping blocks.

I enjoy seeing grip tape art. Someone took the time to dump their own creative energy into decprating their shred sled.

Scary.

Rick and Morty is the jam! Some skater in Ocean Beach is making skate themed stickers like this one. Peep the VX1000!

Anti Hero always has the best graphics. The image they always portray is grimy and true.

James Brockman pro model. I gotta get one of these for the wall.

This is the fun part!

Ripping strips!

It's fun to clamp a bunch together at once.

Then they will be ready for the planer.

Ooey-gooey.

I make mess good!

After the glue is removed, the true colors come out.

One cutting board is five skateboard decks.

Popping pink!

I like this balance of colors. Reminds me of Captain America for some reason.

Cities. Still trying to think of what to do with these...

Another Woody all clamped up!

Drip, drip, drip! All night long!

Trying to figure out what to do with all my scrap noses and tails. Clamped a bunch up just to get motivated on it.

Funny Christmas card I bought for the wife.

The trio all finished!

I felt very productive!

The finish really brought out the colors.

Bubble gum and candy drops!

More to come, that's for sure.

Look at that furry chest!

Mandatory Bloggery- Limited Edition Pacific Drive/ Neil Blender board, Donating Time at WSVT and Dolan Stearns Art Show @ Gym Standard

It's been beautiful out...
Stop and smell the roses.
Hug people and smile at them.
Break bread with the enemy.

Lurked at Pacific Drive skate shop for a bit.

Bought one of these PD/ autographed Neil Blender boards.

Neil Blender is the shit.

He only signed a few.

Fiberous materials to keep the plumbing going.

I can't always eat like shit, can I?

Later to the "Hemans Bowl" coping. I loaded it up to be donated to the WSVT crew.

It wasn't doing me any good collecting cob webs on the side of my house. May as well let the people grind it.

I heard they were doing work, so I reported for shovel duty.

Have a couple of beers and watch the boys play.

Brandon Perelson, eyes on the prize. Thanks for helping me unload the coping bub.

Generation Drilling, otherwise known as Rock Fish brought the heavy duty equipment.

Stacked.

Playing in the dirt.

 Tossing rubble in the dark.

 The bub Mike. The bub sure knows how to handle a wheelbarrow over and through the narrow terrain that is WS VT. Cheers bub!

 Bascially, the section that seperated the back peanut bowl and back country has been opened up!

I recommend shoveling dirt every now and then, it clears the mind.

 Later bubs.

Saw Larry David at my local market the other day.

A goodbye note for a kid that was moving outta town.

 A kid painted a broken deck and had me and the other kids sign it as a going away present for his friend.

 The next day I went back to WSVT check out the progress and shovel some more dirt.

 I crushed a few beers in the process.

 MegaPeaceMike sledging away.

 Time to give the girl a break.

 Grinding away in more than one way.

 Tossing more rubble. Point A to point B.

Fucking loaded with dirt.

Cheers to everyone that got the job done. You guys are the ones making it happen and creating happiness for so many people.

Then I was off to a Dolan Stearn art show at Gym Standard.

The bub spends loads of time expressing himself on paper.....to say the least.

Bart Club!

I miss all of these shows.

Kevin from The Look Back Library getting some covers signed. If there is a cover boy out there within a 500 mile radius, he's on it to get there signature and share some stories of said cover.
Fucking rad.

It was a great turn out. Great time with some great friends.
I then ventured off the the Red Fox Lounge for some piano music.
