I know. It has been over a month since my last post. I have been preparing for the next 18 weeks that will be spent on the road.<br />
My journey began last week in Chicago, love it there, always a good time. <br />
While there I sampled the local color on a walkabout and took in a Cubs game.<br />
Chicago never disappoints I can always count on having a great time and meeting amazing folks. <br />
The highlight of this visit was a <a href="http://www.thecharlesbradley.com/" target="_blank">Charles Bradley</a> concert in Millennium Park. I got my hug.<br />
<br />
Tonight: Milwaukee.<br />

Racing 4 and sometimes 8 wide in an oval course there is a driver and an on board mechanic, who is now (due to more reliable technology) just a passenger holding on tight and watching for other boats. My first Question: "Where are the seat harnesses?" Answer: "Oh, you don't want to be in one of these when you wreck. You want to be thrown clear." <br />
After watching them race I am pretty sure these guys are a few crackers short of a box.<br />
Can't wait for my chance to get in.<br />

I have to admit this was my first official pro drag boat race and was not quite prepared for the power and speed these guys and gals deal with. When the first Top Fuel boat launched it nearly knocked me over with the energy and noise coming from it and I was 100 feet away. In go the ear plugs. What I learned is these are amazing people on the water and off. Each team took me in as family, fed me and told me their adventures. I am very honored to be a part of this family and will remain a part for as long as they will have me.<br />
<br />
Thanks everyone.<br />
See you in Texas.<br />

Last weekend I had the privilege of shooting with Lucas Oil Productions at the Dart Show Me 100.<br />
I haven't been to a dirt track oval in years and was not at all disappointed by the action I was about to be a part of. These are some of the most down to earth (no pun intended) people I have met in the automotive industry. A roll cage covered in sheet metal going over 100mph sideways with 20 other warriors is their needle and adrenaline is the drug.<br />
<br />
Thanks Lucas Oil for reminding me of my redneck roots. <br />
<br />
Awesome! <br />

I like to use soft focus sometimes to give a painted look. Printed on
canvas or rice paper will really bring out the effect. Can't wait to see
them.<br />

There where 2 images originally associated with this post but I was asked to remove one (of a junk car) by the resident of the property. I did so out of respect. NOT due to any infraction of the law. Law states that any image taken from a public area (the road in this case) of private property is LEGAL.

My mission: to stop at a few places that I have passed by day after day.<br />
Glad I did.<br />
Motivation. Lesson learned (again).<br />

I had the privilege of shooting with JD and Hayley the other morning. Both are graduating seniors in High School but interact as if they have known each other for centuries. Their comfort with each other, themselves and their surroundings trumped any distraction from the outside world.<br />
This was a morning very well spent.<br />
Thanks guys. <br />

More on that later.<br />
While there I bumped into Corbin Dull, pro rider for <a href="http://www.zapskimboards.com/" target="_blank">Zap Skimboards</a>, and had a quick session with him. Great guy, great company. The Break was a bit small and unpredictable but Corbin still managed to throw down. Guess that is why he is pro....<br />

I also got to see an amazing Cypress grove at waters edge. These suckers are monsters. Some measured up to eight feet around. Still.......curious as to why it is called Pigeon Creek? Pretty sure they don't swim...<br />

These guys are bike freaks, each one an elite mechanic, they are also responsible for the infamous Stowe Loops trail network, conveniently located behind the shop. Stop here, ride here, BS hear.....<br />

"We just started digging" Which is usually code for get your ass over here and throw some dirt. I finished my ride grabbed a slice and headed. I arrived at Kyle's house to find Ryan Luciano And Ryan McEvoy already doing the dirty work. After a great session in the back yard we slid down the highway and into the forest to check out one of the sweeter stashes around. Don't try and find it cause it doesn't really exist. <br />

I was amazed as to how similar the town folk are to my town folk, folks. Kind of odd but familiar Burlington VT feel. Anyway... blah blah, shot some pics, rode the Mountain Bike on some saaweeet single track in both NC and VA and arrived home absolutely broke.<br />
