I’ve always believed strongly in giving back to the community in anyway possible. So I was all over the opportunity to come to my cousin and his wifes 5th grade classrooms at Schendel Elementary school in Delhi, CA to speak to the kids about my career in the art field. I felt so honored to do so and were so stoked the kids were digging what I was throwing their way.
After leaving the city the Pops and I headed to Carmel and Pepple Beach to pay our respects. The tree between Hole #6 and 7 holds very special meaning to us and Thanksgiving wouldn’t be the same unless we stopped here first before meeting up with the fam.
A trip through the Golden State wouldn’t be the same without being stuck in some sort of traffic jam. There were two major accidents coming over the Pacheco pass on Hwy 152.
I’ve always wanted to run the bridge, so there was no better start to the day than doing so. Luckily I finished just before the rain hit.
Thanksgivings right around the corner, so that means it time for my Fathers and my annual pilgrimage to the West Coast for family, friends, and other shenanigans. The trip starts with the Bay Area and then we’re off down the coast.
I’m all for trying new things, especially food. However these couple of items made me think twice before I sank my teeth into them.
While soccer is one of my greatest passions in life, cars have always been a close 2nd as far as things that get me overly amped up. So in search of beautiful fabrications of metal some friends and I headed to Vegas for the annual automotive industry show dubbed SEMA for 36 hours of shenanigans and cars. Just to get away from the snow and cold weather for a couple of days was worth it all but the eye-candy was definitely a bonus.
It was also a great time to take the BP eye-chart shirt out for a spin…
7 o’clock; take the trash out, all is dry and looking like a good day. 9 o’clock; I walk back outside to this. Time to bring the Norwegian sweaters out of storage and fire up some hot cocoa.
A couple friends and I headed to a bankruptcy auction this morning and I snagged this Samsung 19″ monitor for a cool $70.
*It also came with a tower, keyboard, and speaker system, but I think the monitor will do just fine by itself.

Another Real Game, another night at Rio Tinto. Saturdays game however was accompanied by warmer weather which made for a perfect night to enjoy a cold beer (or two or three) and good company.
Sushi and pumpkin carving with a local lovely. Life is good.
