so lets talk about oreon.
best summer of my life.
by any means.
what more could you ask for besides meeting great people, hanging out with great friends, and snowboarding.
living in the "woods."
so lets start from the beginning.
scottie and i left for oregon on the morning of may 29th. in hopes of getting a few extra days of awesome. we hung out in the airport. our place took off around nine ish.
we flew through phoenix to save some money and got to portland.
we got a kick ass super eight motel room. then cruised the streets.
portland is pretty rad. its really small. and has a lot of sweet stuff to see.
we took the max, which is there little train around the city. so awesome and easy.
we couldn't find anyplace to eat. until we finally found a mcdonalds.
there is a lot of homeless people in portland.
we went back to the room late. then lived on the streets the next day.
it was fun. we dragged out luggage. big duffle bag and board bag all over the city.
we went to burnside for a while. it was fun. hard as balls to skate. and smaller than i pictured. we waited around all day for rachel to get there.
we wound up taking the max to gresham.
hung out in borders with our bags. got in trouble.
drove up to govy. to the snowball house.
it was a great house. pretty big. large couch. lots of bedrooms.
there were a few problems with the house and the roomies. haha.
no fridge. troubles with rent.
we went snowboarding more or less everyday.
met arieanna wahoooooo. way cool lady friend. she liked my pants haha.
we hung out for the rest of the summer.
she comes to the east coast in forty nine days.
the public park was pretty fun to begin with.
flat box. few jumps.
it got better. it got worse.
but it was always fun.
we got to ride mount hood summer ski camp a lot becuase those dudes are so rad. and nice.
rode windells some. super fun everything.
mhssc jump's were the shit.
we filmed quite a bit and i made a little video. you can see it on youtube.com "an oregonian adventure"
mhssc had the best rail ever. single barrel 30 ft down rail.
so much fun. did fun stuff on it all the time.
