Bat-Leather Live! Thanks to all those who made it and those who wish they did!! We had a blast!

Last week at the LEGO store, my son had an opportunity to help build an 8ft R2D2.

Here’s the finished piece!

This was from my Grandfathers pipe collection. This is the coolest pipe I’ve seen!

They all give me the blues!

I took these with my camera phone today.

I took these with my camera phone the other day. The sun was shining through on the back of some frosted glass.

I took these with my camera phone the other day. The compositions and shapes you can create are endless!

Close call for the neighbor down the street. Luckily everyone was OK!

I had 4 tickets to yesterdays show and brought my Mom, my Son and his friend. The set Designs were amazing and the dancing was awesome!! All of us had a great time!

We weren’t able to take photos once the show started so this is all I have. I wish I could have teken some pics!

Jace (L) and his friend (R).

Found this in the garage the other day! I loved this poster.
Those were the days of The Six Million Dollar Man, Planet of the Apes and Kung Fu!

I wanted to get Little Buddy a bow and arrow but he only has a 10lb draw so he’s not really strong enough. I then thought that a slingshot might be fun to play with.

I got each of us one and we had the most fun!!
We are using acorns for ammo. There are tons of them around the house.

We set up some cans to shoot at. Little Buddy was doing pretty damn good!

Here’s a few pics from Saturday. We attended the Johnny Romano’s 2nd Annual Rock the Cradle Event at the Jamail Skatepark.

Afterward, I went to the Rock the Cradle After-Party, then the After-Party’s After-Party! Thanks goes to Groovehouse for the parking and Greg for the Drinks!!

Little Buddy and me.

Forgot his name but he skates at the park a lot.

The TEX GIBSON decks finally came in. Here’s a shot of me and the deck that Groovehouse from Skatehouston took yesterday.

The graphics came out great!! I can’t be more pleased!!

I surprised my wife with Incubus tickets for Friday’s show. We met our friends Brad and Jacqui there and they let me borrow their camera. We were in row 14 and took these pics through my binoculars. They came out pretty damn good! It was a great show!

I don’t get to surf much but when I do it’s always with my Chauffeur Doni.

These are from 2002. Notice my red goatee!

Christian Hosoi was at the Houston Skatepark last night. The highlight was when he was teaching a little girl to skate the kidney pool! Very cool! John Gibson was also out there busting 4 foot lean airs! There was some great skating going on by the locals. Max, Jeremy, Ken and Barry were all tearing it up!!

Later Skaters!

After work I went over my friends paint shop and practiced some pinstriping.
I have a ways to go but we had fun trying!!

I found an old photo of Jace when he was 3 Years Old.

The series continues with pics of Tony Hawk from the 1985 Houston Shut Up and Skate Contest.

Here’s a photo of my Grandparents and my Sisters in front of our house in Jersey.
I adjusted the colors to get it closer to what it was really like.

Groovehouse from Skatehouston sent me these pics. Thanks man!

There was a Vans book signing here in Houston and Jace and I were looking forward to meeting Tony Alva and Steve Caballero.

Ever since Jace watched the “Dogtown and Z-Boys” documentary, he’s been a Tony Alva fan. Tony Alva was up there with Evel Knievel and John Wayne as one of my childhood heroes and it was great to finally meet him in person.

Both guys were very kind and we were lucky enough to get this great photo.
