Props to my buddies !!
Greg Foster base jumping at Dead Horse Point, Canyonlands, Utah. Greg works as an skydiving instructor in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico and is one extreme son-of-a-bitch. Love you, brother!
Doug Hebert carving it up at K 92 Secret Spot, Baja, Mexico.
Inventor of the Pickle Wax Remover, recent University of Hawaii architecture graduate and world traveler, Doug Hebert and his beautiful wife Virginia are truely some of my best friends. Mahalo, Ohana !
JD smith grinding across Robbie's Ramp in Ft. Walton Beach, Florida.
This guy is like 50 years old now and still ripping it up with no pads! Crazy bastard. JD and I published a skateboard magazine called Gulf Coast Skate Review back in the 1980's, a time in my life that I will never forget. Skate safe, bratha.
Spring is Here !!
Spring has officially arrived, but as usual, Colorado is in March mode. 70 degrees one day, snowing the next. Crazy weather, but I love the fact that I can snowboard in the morning and go mountain biking, fishing or just lay in the sun during the afternoon. Definitely, one of the best times of year to live on the Colorado front range.

I love mountain biking. Climbing sucks, but hauling-ass downhill rocks! Check out the video my buddy and I put together.....not! One of the most intense mountain biking videos I've ever seen.
I can't wait to go fly fishing for big trout and bass here in Colorado. Smallmouth and Largemouth bass are a blast to catch on a fly-rod..especially sight casting to them. One day I will win a Bass Tournament fishing with a fly rod...mark my words. Of course I haven't casted a fly rod in 5 months. Ouch! The ice is finally melting and the rivers and reservoirs will start allowing boats and other water craft on the water. Guess I better patch the holes in my boat.
Smallmouth Bass
Rainbow Trout
I also can't wait to go saltwater fly fishing. Man, I was missing out all those years. I lived in Florida, right there on a bayou, fished almost everyday, and still never picked up a fly rod. Anyway, I can't wait until the July 4th holiday when I travel back to Florida to catch some tarpon, ladyfish, redfish, and whatever chases my fly.

Fly fishing for Ulua with Diamond Head in the background. Oah'u, Hawai'i.
Fly fishing off the island of Espiritu Santos, La Paz, Baja, Mexico.
If only Colorado had an ocean so I could go surfing!! But then Colorado would be over-populated and crowded like California. Oh well, I can wait for Hawaii and Mexico trips....I think. I better learn to white water kayak this summer. But then again....NOTHING compares to surfing in my opinion....o.k., maybe a steep and deep power day.

Florida/Georgia for Christmas & New Years
For Christmas and New Years, I normally go back to Ft. Walton Beach, Florida to visit my two sisters and their families for the holiday season. Lucky for me, some seasons many of my close friends from high school and childhood visit to spend time with their families, as well. I have posted a few images from a great New Years Eve party that I attended with friends, Doug and Virgina Hebert, visiting from Hawaii and Eric Hebert visiting from Cincinnati.

Time-lapse of fireworks. Navarre, Florida. New Years Eve. 2007-2008.
Levi. Lakeland, Georgia. Between Christmas and New Years, my sister Karen, her family and I traveled over to Lakeland, Georgia to visit my sister Deena and her family. My niece, Alexa has a new born baby named Levi and he was just a blast to photograph.
My sister, Karen, my niece, Allison and I were walking out of an afternoon movie when this unusual scene caught my eye. Destin, Florida.
