Good Oxtail....Bad Rail

Funny how you forget quickly how hard you can fall quickly and terribly. And how bad it hurts. No matter how many times it happens it has the same elements. Oh shit.... this isn't good I might fall....save it save it....nope definitely gonna fall.... and ground. Kinda like now. Once you lose it. Really hard to save it again. I pulled a rock out of my knee that was the size of a dime... but round. In fort carson/mason circa 10pm. Why would there even be train tracks there? That's what I thought as hit the ground. I don't want to jinx myself but I'm actually pretty good at taking a digger. Stood up 50 yards from a cop car running... with no one in it. Sweet. I was over in the Marina with some friends and the food was incredible. Raining and dark but a good ride home all and all. I cruised by hyde street peer bleeding. And was really happy with the waves lapping on the beach and the cool light. A good night and I so missed the daily roll. Even if I was slammed to the pavement in the process. Good oxtail...bad rail.

district

another day. another commute in the.... SF giants second game. pretty sure folks are pretty excited about this. IN the district with my villain(?) and his man purse "pan-nerd" as i'm told. some days you slug in out and fall into bed before you can properly be thankful for all that you have in life and all of the love out there. well mostly. today is that day and i just want to say to all of you who do this every day. You. Are. Lucky. Thanks for teaching me the SF bike commute ropes ben. I so appreciate it. I think in this picture you are yelling.... "get the fuck out of the street idiot" i love it when people show me that kind of love. peace y'all.

Sucker Punch-Fresh, Local, Organic

Really again.

I never gave a thought to ration 'til someone said I had a rash like you. And I never gave a thought to fashion 'til someone said I screw like you. Baby I was never cool enough to get a job at a record store. And if I could I wouldn't want you any more.

Refreshments. Fizzy Fuzzy Big and Buzzy. Sucker Punch.

Seventeen floors up just rolled in post bay lights water after some 04 Nicole Moncuit Vieille Vigne and a little Plaza Royale Caviar. You don't have to stay in the woods.... just gotta come from there.

OK Commuter

In no uncertain terms an unprecedented turn in daily commute ritual. In my new city by the Bay and no don't let the bridge fool you I am not living under it..... Yet. Lots of miles this month put on. I mean that both literally and figuratively. Every day as it comes. Breath in and breath out. CHR

Days

There are days that come up in life. Days where you are forced to choose. One way or another. Vague thought does not inspire specific behavior and life IS the sum of your choices. Today was one of those days.

Sea Rations

Time to reign in the budget.... College style for a few days.

The South

You are fucking kidding me right? Where am I middle earth. I think this might guy might actually be "in" the Marshall Tucker band.

JB

Getting it done on Mallory Square back in the day. Rock star..... taken at my new favorite Hog Fish grill on Stock Island. I spent a significant amount of time there. It is one of the real deals. I just need a pair of those white shrimper boots and like by "guide" says.... "nobody will ever fuck with you" I got chased by a dog up on stock island ye olde hippie workshop looking for a potential place to drop my newly renovated \\ very vintage airstream. Not that easy and not that hippie. Boat yards are where it's at. I had a guy on a sailboat in full breaking bad gear tell me he had never seen a camper parked in the yard. "um... cool thanks man good luck with that thing it's looking great!" Might even float when he's don3. Cheers queers!

Do Work

Just some new installs around the marina. Ya know big hole in the water where you throw money. Pretty basic... just drill a bunch of holes in your brand new center console. I was professional carpenter at one time. Perfect execution... thanks to the Tim in KW. All of the electrical work looks incredible.

Thanks Tim

A bit of a Thanksgiving love from Tim and Amy at Bona Vida. Incredible.

world = my oyster

So to speak. Dreams realized and spinning rods utilized to the fullest extent. On my own craft fishing at the base of Calda. It's a great big world out there... go get you some of it. All days should be this grand!

Party of one...

Looking for Brandtz party of one. Willy T's British Virgin Islands. Looking back and looking forward to two weeks in the Keys.

Downright Autumnal

Chillin' a the shack with my new $11 dollar a bomber autumn crack addiction. Thanks farmers!

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle

I think I need to clean this out more often however I am doing it before mid January which is a plus. Thanks to Boulder county for the free chord of pine I picked up on the way down the other day. The Equinox continues to be worth it's weight in gold.

Crumby Photo of the Commander in Chief

I was lucky enough to see the President in person last week in Boulder at Coors Event Center (I rode my bike and ate pizza at the Sink after hoping he would show up again). Pretty cool and the other night I got to ride my bike to watch the election with local organic farmers drinking organic pumpkin beer from Rogue and eating cheese and beets grown this summer. Fresh homemade t-shirts beer drinkers for obama on the front four more beers logo on the back. Jesus Boulder is an interesting place to be. "I'll take one of everything you have canned please." Already delivered in person. Thanks Tim. I smell more like patchouli every second. And pot is now legal here.

Time Out

I was walking through my newest coffee shop and I noticed a chair in the back. It had a sign on it. Tucked in a corner. It seemed like a great place to reflect.
