Just like Cannon, Astoria has a dumb blanket no camping law that makes zero sense. 1) My van isn’t an encampment. 2) I’m not sleeping in a tent. I figured under the bridge would be a fitting place to “camp” in Astoria. Cliché, but kind of rad. Saturday morning, around 4am, I hear this racket…

I came across the unfortunate story of an American found in a ditch somewhere in Mexico last week. This guy amassed more adventure in 6 years than a handful of people could ever have in a lifetime. I’ve been blowing the opportunity. I haven’t even scratched the surface. Turns out, over the last several weeks…

fire, fire, everywhere…  

We had a great week after Hood River. I met up with some buddies in Portland for a night of beer drinking. I think it was a pretty long day for all of us. It’s rare for three dudes to look at one another inside a strip club and all come up with the same…

Last night I rolled into Hood River after a pretty eventful weekend in PDX. Portland, is getting top marks right now for next location destination. Oregon as a whole has been pretty awesome. The people are nice and friendly. The scenery is jaw dropping. The local businesses have flavor. Even the weather has been great.…

So I suppose I’ll start this one off with saying that I finally “upgraded” and started to use an IPhone. I made this decision for 2 reasons. 1, the camera is kick ass. The image quality is super crazy. I look back at my recent photos and instantly I’m bummed that I didn’t have this…
