April 12, 2019 – Lake Tahoe, California

“I know a place where I want to go Could you just stay by my side It’ll be alright” I can’t believe it’s over already. Before leaving Tahoe, I promised myself that I would drive around the lake …

December 31, 2018 – Kirkwood Mountain, California

October 1, 2018 – CA HWY 1 (Part 2)

The weather turns. No more stops for photos, I guess. Oh well. Pass Elk, pass Albion, pass Mendocino. The interview with Andy went well. God, that guy was hilarious. Can’t wait to put the video together. I made …

January 26, 2017 – Okoboji, Iowa

Just what we needed. I’m sitting around a table in my friend’s parent’s condo with the ‘Boji gang: Lucas, Kyle, and Matt. Lucas (one of my oldest and best friends) introduces the newest gimmick for our annual, debaucherous …

End: Year Two, Bozeman, Montana
