BC’s finest

2 devastating things in this photo. 1 Earthquake damage. 2 Conrads moustache.

Ford was told he was going on a bus to go surfing. And now here he is. Listening quietly in a school. Looking at his face you can almost hear his internal monologue.

Chilian school.

Beach-side empanadas and chirizo.

Wet suits and eucalyptus.

Broderick got burried.

Chile.

For Jeff Kent, we never did find that little seaside restaurant, but an empanada shack was a good start.

Hot tub.

Tyler Werry going over a DH jump in a GS is the second most interesting thing in this photo. The most interesting thing is the billboard type thing in the top right corner. Lots of speculation as to what it is. No answers. Suspicion lies with aliens.

I remember when we first met.

It was in Kamloops on a brisk Oct morning, there was a freak snow storm ahead on the Coquihala. I was with my friend Nick and a van full of kids. Mike Janyk was on the front of the Vancouver Sun, dressed in Olympic gear, he had the hosser look. I was heading back from farnham. The barista introduced us, I didn’t give you the time of day, I thought that you were silly and irrelevant. A fad.

It’s been just over a year since we met, and here we are together, holed up in a small room together in Chile. You are the reason I get out of bed in the morning. You give me strength in the afternoon. You pick me up when I am feeling low.

I love you Starbucks VIA, you complete me.

Oct 4, Earthquakes and mudpits

Evening Mountain.

Yeah, i think I might just head around and take the T-Bar, see you up top.

Manual Labor showed up and gave a hand shovelling out the mudpit t-bar.
