Bruise Cruise

We got going at the butt crack of 2pm. Pops gave us all jobs. We watched Chris from the window as he went about his, breaking up the ice and preparing it for brews. After about 2 minutes he gave it up for a cold Keystone Light. Smart man.














Pure Florida.














The Keystone was flowing like Corona and visa versa.














Yup.



























I was about to take a pic of the brothers and Homeless just walked away. Ryza was not happy.


























Redneck Riviera.














Bad move Pops.


























Thanks Captain.

Skate Video Monday #13

I have more pics from Matt's bachelor weekend. But for now a video from yesterday:

Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm.
-Winston Churchill

Crunkin' Pretty Much

Escalade Rule 1 - Don't steal no napkins.
















Matt was surprised and quite amped about his ride to Orlando.
















But not as amped as us. Steve wanted it loud.
















Ryan gladly adjusts the levels.
















Zoom fwd to Otown. My old hood is pretty much the same.
















Yup.
















Mistas in town.


















Matt asks where Chris is.


















We don't know.


















Oh he's huntin.'


















Oh, nevermind, he was just leading us to the pit. This was the best money I spent all weekend.


















Remember how it started. Look at us now. The pirate ship leaves at sunrise.

Bandidos Profesionales

Warning: We are professionals. Do not attempt what is shown here today. Also, remember this is blog world, where the line between fact and fiction is extremely blurry. Like six-Keystone-Lights-blurry.
















Most of the first day of the weekend was spent at the beach. We followed that with Patron and assorted fried foods.
















We followed the Patron in true bandido style. Shotguns on the dock.











































































Top Shot.


































Not really, I missed every single shot (why is this pic so big, i hate blogger, this is why i dont take vertical shots, Matt!)
















No day would be complete without Ryza blowin something up and Chris is always at the ready to aid him.
















...Dewy...

mr White is possesed
possed by the power and
the might of rock gods

Peekin' on a Bachelor Party Weekend

After an exhausting 5 minutes in the sun we crashed. Just kidding. This is at like 10 am.
















Blingin'.






























I hope this works out for you Steve.

More to come, obviously.

Old ladies love flowers. I heard one such lady say "ohhh, what a feast for the eyes!!"





















































Some dudes were really into it.
