OREGON: day tree

well... after a long night of crazyness... involving drunken skating down stairs... most of which was switch.. smoking hookah.. drinking PBR and of course... more guitar hero... woke up and headed to Pier park... waited in traffic for an hour and a half just to get to the other side of portland and skated pier... it was way to hot to stand around and watch skating so i took a nap in the shade... then tried to shoot some photos but it was way to sunny and i didnt feel like taking photos anyway... to much fun the night before i guess?... then after waiting for linderman to bring us a case of kronic energy drink for the rest of the drink we finally head out of portland for our next stop on the oregon tour.. NEWBERG!... still BLAZING hot... although newberg is sick... its just like a snowboard park... but made out of concrete!... again it was to hot and way to bright to take any good photos so i just hung around in the shade and watched... but i can vouch that the park is legit and everyone should visit it once in their lifetime.. anyway... on to the next stop.. MCMINVILLE! which was pretty cool... showed up just as the good light was coming out so i was happy... pretty core lil session going on with some guys from the indy team just wrapping up some filming from the day... it turns out they are on the same agenda as us... hit up all the oregon parks... and their next stop is lincoln city... same as us.. so it should be a good day tomorrow... heres a couple shots from mcminville (its very unedited but it will do the trick for now)


After getting a couple shots in mcminville we load up the van... and head out to lincoln city... we get there hoping to find a place on the beach to sleep... but we found a real cheap hotel to hold up in instead... which is gonna be nice seeing how we all need showers and seeing how this is the northwest... the beach is really cold at night... plus i paid for it so i get the bed... and first shower so im set!... after heading down to the beach for a small bonfire we stumble back to the hotel.. set off the smoke alarm (in a smoking room non the less) trying to fire up the hookah... jump around on the beds for a while and settle into bed... tomorrow is lincoln city... then we head up to seaside then astoria... then drive up 101 back to seattle... this might be my last lil blog untill i get back so ill fill you in as i get the chance... this trip has been a pretty epic lil journey and its making me look forward to all the trips i have lined up in the next few months... heres some pics from the bonfire and mild hotel thrashing...Enjoy!
