St. Minneapolis

Tripped over some roads in the midwest and all I have to show for it are Walmart receipts.

            Awesome week of work starting from St. Louis and going all the way up to Minnesota, via a Ford Explorer. I got the chance to drive on a frozen lake, go through Mark Twain's (his pen name literally translates into "safe passage") home town, and took six St. Louis boys on the ride of their lives. I also got the chance to work with one of my favorite artists/directors,  Thomas Campbell. We had a super good time; bad karaoke was sung and friends were made.

            

            Also, on a completely different subject, I am certainly glad to see timmendez.com up and running again. Word on the street was that the dude fell on tough times. I'm glad to see him doing well!

Drug Cartels and Agave Fields

So... 

        Guadalajara is radical! We worked at the Patron Hacienda drank $500 bottles of tequila, smoked cuban cigars, ran around like madmen to get everything done, and definitely chillard the stoke out of Mex. The town we were supposed to stay at -well we did one night- was great except for the fact that a main drug cartel dude got shot in the head in the middle of the day two blocks away from our hotel. When in Mex... just Rome with it

June and the 395

June = gnar x stoke + chillar & vibage

         Great snow, perfect weather, and my good bud Paul. We went snowmobiling at a place on the east side of the 395 just between Mammoth and June on the way up. Only tipped it twice. Also, it was the best I have ever shredded. I actually led the tree mishes and passed Paul for the first time. We definitely seized the stoke and glided the pow.

Utah

Libro

Super chiller of a book so far. Adam, thanks bud! This book totally makes me feel all blissed out.

Surf?

Surf was so good in Newport last week these were the only photos I snapped.

First Run O' the Mill

Howdy,

Welcome to Chillarin the Stoke. This blog is inspired by the wonderful language use of Matt MacNaughton, Michael Pizzo, Tyler Emmett, and Morgan Emmett. All dudes above mentioned are well respected and known chillars throughout the greater southern California. I intend to start up this blog keeping in mind a few things: 

1. Update at least once a week.

        

        I will not follow timmendez.com as an example and keep stereotypes (for the time being) aside for such procrastination.

2. Share new things I am into during certain points of the week. 

       

        I guess that is probably one of the main reasons blogging originated.

3. Show photos I take from a very consumer friendly camera.

         It is not a gnarly camera at all.  Canon Powershot SD 780 IS. For all the tech savvy folk.

4. When I can, write about cool and bad things I experience.

         Hopefully more cool stuff, but can't have grapes without wine. 

        Anyhow, I am going to fill this blog hopefully with photos. Majority of the writing is full of innuendos that only a handful of people will get. It is written in complete backwardness as well. Example: grapes without wine! Pretty clever. Also, it is full of dumb sayings and jokes, in which only half of those handful of people will get. Enjoy and please leave all compliments to yourself and criticisms for all to see.
