Male Modeling

Met up with Anna's sister yesterday so her student could do a portrait of one of the local residents.
Still don't understand why I had to pose naked for a headshot.

i don't care how many books anybody has read or how many documentaries they've seen, nobody in my opinion is as well cultured as skateboarders.  grab a cup o' joe and have a look into the world that is ours... amazing.  once again.

PERUS CREW 2012

spread the word! perus crew edit we just finished tonight, 20 sept. 2012!

a few buddies from around the globe went to 'nam and it looks like they had one helluv a time.  enjoi!

Froogle.

Well, looks like another leave of absence is in the books for this ol' gal. Apparently I've uploaded too much lately and old moneybags google is wanting to start charging me $2.49 per month if I want to upload more photos. In a matter of protest, I think I shall not pay for this space, as it's not something that is profiting me, but it's something I'd wanted to give back to the people. So unless there's somebody who's wanting to sponsor, heh heh? ...and just before I'd fully caught up to date with this thing... Fare thee well, until we meet again.

oh, brave new world...

this was couple of days before x'mas, looking out our back patio.  very strange that there was no snow yet.  last year on christmas when we came to helsinki there was about a meter of snow on the ground and it was -30*

 took the bus into turku, then dressed the tree

 x'mas morning the town gathers and sings

 long nights of opening gifts made us a bit sleepy.

 the next day we hopped on a plane and embarked on the new world

 woke around six in the morn and went on a fairy to scope the big apple

 times square was hell.  they were getting ready for new year's.

 home alone 2

 got the horse tour

 went to my friend, butthandler's work and went on the roof to check out the city from above.  it was epic.

 went home to az on new year's eve day.  you'll see those pics in a second.

my folks had arranged a party for those who didn't make it to finland for our wedding, so they could party with us.  cheers, folks!  and cheers, friends who came through!

 greesewood flats.  mandatory, cowboy!

 we had a buck up in there from our first wedding.

 i miss these things

 jammed over to sandy eggo in hopes of seeing some fresh baby face.  they weren't ripe yet, though, so we've still yet to see 'em.

here's my misses at the dunes.

 here's those buns i spoke of earlier.  my niece, juniper, and nephew, oliver, all safely tucked away in their mother's belly.

 cyriss crackin jokes.

 went to this lighthouse

 whale watching!

 cemetary

 good looking out to the pritchett's for allowing us to drink your booze again and sleep in your beds! best view in town...

 family portraits

 got this pic sent to me after we'd come back to finland.  as you can see, the stork was kind and brought my niece and nephew safely out of stephanie.

 met up with latenite link and he's gone n touched up the dinosaur tattoo i'd given him a couple of years back.

 we went horseback riding and it was amazing.

 into the sun

 my gals.  wifey and m'grandma.

 steed's goat.

 this night was rough.  next day i woke up on top of my bed still grasping that goldshläger.

 had to beat some elders at some golf.  no big deal, i only play once every couple years, heh heh.  sam had to poison me which was distracting to say the least, and somehow whiskey made it's way into my system on the back nine.

 buds.  miss these two nuckleheads.

 the bush man

 micah came by with his gal, we played some games then he slithered onto my floor and passed out while i star gazed.

 coka & cola.

 marcarr and my tattoo
