I’m at the Pistol River Wave Bash in Oregon. In the second round of competition, I started my heat with a big crash and busted up my face. The bones are fine– just some bruises. The flesh, aside from being tender, is a bit cut but nothing requiring stitches. My front teeth, however, were not so lucky– I lost most of my top left front tooth. The blood everywhere and the intermittent pain weren’t so bad, but my vanity took a hit. Unfortunately, I lost my head a bit (not just literally) for the rest of the heat and ended up with neither intact front teeth nor a win. Well, the double elimination is coming up this weekend, and I’ll put in my contest time before attending to fixing my face. But forget all this talk, enjoy the foto friday:

I am about to set off on the drive from San Francisco, CA to Gold Beach, OR to train at Pistol River for the upcoming AWT contest there. Here’s a foto friday for the drive:

Princeton Reunions have begun! The world is black and orange and with that the FF is short and without captions. Enjoy it for the beauty. That’s all anyone can do anyway.
