To everyone who helped me stand on your shoulders to bring my little “meowtains” to Cascade Equniox last weekend, thank you!

From the bottom of my heart, this couldn’t have happened without your help.

Cup is overflowing right meow. 😻

My how they grow!!!

General public service announcement, in my heart all of my former students are still the age they were when I last coached them. Sorry about it, but my god is it always such a pleasure to bump into y’all as young adults and witness the individuals you’ve become.

Drew’s family takes the award for the best family I ever had a privilege of coaching. There were five of them back then, and we spent many many years together at Bachelor having the cutest lessons of all time together.

Their mother was the mom of the year every year. Every day they all rolled out with their own backpacks and gear dialed to a T.

They even had me over for Christmas dinner one year.

And, apparently there are two more new additions to the Stilson’s crew. I’m calling dibs on coaching them this year; unless their big brother wants them for himself. And if that’s the case, and I’ll spend a day showing him a few things to help make those first turns carved and how to hold their hands like big-brother-training-wheels.

In other news, I quit my job, got another one, and then quit that job too. Knowing my worth is rad.

Now I work for Eagle Ridge Construction, swinging a titanium hammer and crushing with a full set of Hitachi tools doing a $1.2M remodel for some bad ass mt bikers and split boarders.

So, now the Bill Healey memorial bridge in on my way home from work, and the daily backflip just got a serious upgrade from first street rapids.

Some kid called me out as I climbed up to my spot, “Are you the lamppost guy?!?”

“Hu? No. Someone climbs the freaking light? Savage! But no, that ain’t me; I just do back layouts… and I’m kinda scared right meow.”

“First time?”

“This season. Don’t over rotate. Don’t over rotate. Don’t over rotate.”

Splash. It wasn’t perfect, but I still hit feet first without rolling up the windows.

I instantly started shaking. My brain does very weird things any time I’m stressed. Thoughts of more head trauma are always on my mind, and I shake just from thinking about it these days.

So I’m swimming out of the river wondering if I still got it, and then this man screams my name.

It’s good to be home.

Combining ‘kissed by fire’ with fractal wood burning is something that I’m really enjoying.

Tutorial coming soon on this…

This is a banned wood working technique. It’s banned because it’s deadly.

Playing with fire is one thing folks. Playing with 10,000 volts is another thing.

Big Sky for the porch life.

Stoked to be formally accepted into both Oregon Winterfest and the Portland Winter Lights Festival this winter.

Do you know about “The Secrete”? You know, ‘the law of attraction’?

Of course you do. This ain’t 2015 no mo’ folks.

Still talking about it like it’s simple? “All you need to do is wave that wand, believe in abundance, and it’s yours!”

Yeah, you’re right. And it’s far more complicated than that. Climbing example.

You just got out of your car at camp four randomly driving through the valley. I walk up to you and say, “My partner died with me yesterday, so I’m looking for a new one. I’ve got their harness and shoes which should fit you good enough. Wanna climb the nose with me in a day? I’m going for the speed record with a rack of nuts from my old VW, cow bells, and legit tri cams. Sorry bro no aliens, every gram matters. Running belay the whole time, swinging leading is so 1985. You can turn your belt and shoes into aiders just fine. You look ready now, you are just say it and believe!”

Maybe you understood the jargon there, but even if so, do you believe that I’m ready? Is this goal possible? Would you advise your child or parent to take the sharp end here?

Obviously not. So hear me out for nine minutes on something that is simple, objective, and obvious; yet warrants some time to really be spelled out well- like all things of value.

Thank you for your time. Like, save, share if you agree. Even better, share if you’re guilty of sometimes over-simplifying this very complicated spell.

More nights like this please.

The universe: Sure. How about on an epic piece of private property in southern Oregon for two days and nights in August?

Us: Sure, we’ll be there. But only if we can make sushi and teach movement this time too. And we wanna be there early so we can climb all the trees that we need so everything sparkles real nice.

The Universe: Deal. How about we pay you before you pack your car?

Us: Yeah that sounds great.

Stoked to be putting another logo on this thang and bringing it back down south with me next month.

Stay tuned y’all. Epic event announcement coming soon.

you’re vibes were all time, I love you and the way you treated my company very much. Thank you for all the support throughout the event, and I can’t wait to roll in with a crew and do big things with y’all next year.

To building a dream, one piece at a time.

Making space for the addition of our clothing line. Seriously. Rabbits coming.

Trust me, they will be honored with so much love. And this is far more sustainable that using oil based products that never bio degrade like fake fur.

Animal Husbandry… a tragic practice of a forgotten part of the masculine many free folk are coming back to in droves.

How’s your garden? How’s your compost? Got space? Do something with it.

Made a couple pit stops in Bend earlier this week and dropped off some business cards at a few locations I’ve been wanting to work with. I knew that I wanted destination worthy hotels to be huge part of my brand from day one; and I also knew that I REALLY wanted to hang my art at the types of places me and my friends would choose to stay at if we we’re visiting.

For me, that choice is obvious when it comes to Bend. Yes is dope. Yes I love the . If I could afford it, I’d always stay . I just love the way I feel walking through their lobby and have recommended that many of my high end ski/snowboard clients stay there. Air B&B’s are super fun and private. And what local doesn’t love to poach the hot tubs I get all of that. But for me, a hip hostel with friendly travelers and new smiling faces around every corner, and a well lit outdoor patio with space for gathering and games- that’s where I would want to stay.

And when it comes to visiting , there’s only one place at the top of my list, and that’s the . I state this as a simple fact because I was literally calling them to check their rates; so I don’t know if you need more of a testimony than that. When I realized that even a hostel was way out of my budget, I changed my plans, decided to wake up at 3:30AM, and sent it.

But y’all know what I did before I got off the phone. “I’ll be in town tomorrow and I’ll have my work with me, feel free to head to my website to take a quick look and let me know if you think it would be a good fit for your space.”

“OMG BRO YOU HAVE TO COME IN TOMORROW!!!”

“Sure thing dude. I’ll see y’all around noon.”

The staff was all time stoked and pretty much unanimously agreed that they needed the entire line. Hopefully they come see it in action this weekend at the event “Steam Punk Fest”.

Oh, that’s happening this weekend, and this piece and two others are already there… just encase I have another day long seizure before trying to get into the car and head in a direction that used to feel like home.
