Chicago

I had one free day in Chicago, while on tour with my band.  This was the first time I had ever been to this enormous old city.  All I had was my olympus 35rc my skateboard and my fellow band member Kyle.

These are a few of the images I captured while cruising around town.

I took this photo from my hip, hoping the man wouldn't realize I was photographing him.  He had to of known though he is looking directly at the lens.

This skyline was right next to Wilson skatepark. 

Shock The Zonkey part 2

 

Hopefully I can find the time and money to finally make the "shock the zonkey" t-shirt.

Jesus has Camels on his farm too.

They like to give smooches.

Here is Jesus roundin' up some chickens.

This chicken seems to be pretty interested in that beer.

He also taught his horse to bow.

Springdale Ditch, and Eureka!

 Johnny scopin' out the ditch.

 Brandon and Johnny tryin to think of the next spot.

Headed to Eureka on Sunday.  Had to stop by the Dump on the way out.  Will, Mark, and Jacqueline tree couchin' it.

 Charlie, bean plant over the rock channel in Eureaka.

 A little sauce to loosen her up.

 

After the session we headed to Hog Scald for some swimmin.

Check out the footy from these days at gnarkansas.com

The Dump n' Grind

Did some more crete at the Dump n' Grind a few days ago.  Now we have a full wall of concrete on that baby.  All it took was 100 bucks and 14 hours of hard labor to get the last 8 foot or so done.

Biggest pour we have done yet.  Go over to Gnarkansas to see the time lapse of the work.  Plus lots of other Gnarkansas DIY projects.

Little Rock

This is my homey, Tyler, doin a bean tail.  He is moving to Portland next week.  I'm glad I got to skate with him before he leaves.

I stayed at Will's that night.  Did I mention it was the hottest recorded day ever in Little Rock that day.  It was 114 degrees at one point.

F/s air to disaster

She is a fierce one.

Shock The Zonkey!

The farm across the street from my work has these things called Zonkeys.  They are half zebra and half donkey. 

 Eventually my band will have shirts with one of these Zonkey photos on em'.

This is the owner of the Farm.  He plans on opening the farm to the public soon.  He is also training the zonkeys to do tricks.

More Hermann's whole skate bash 2011

These photos were taken the last day of our trip to Hermann.  The days before were very muddy.  Here is Nate and Andy examining certain features of the park.

Nick demonstrates his mud boarding skills after a long weekend of practice.

Choot em' in the head!

Bean plant

Jp put us to work slingin some mud.  It was the best day of the trip.

Pivot fakie

Like a work of art.  Can't wait to go back and skate it
