Skedaddle to Seattle!

Skedaddled to Seattle for Xmas and NYE with the family and Meggers!
First opportunity to skate: Morris, Gin, Matt and Marianne showed up to Delridge to dry to dry the park after a rainy morning. Jay Iding made a shoing too, bonus! This section was pretty much dry enough to skate when the clouds rolled in and we got pissed on. So we went to Marginal Way.
Yeah! Maginal!
Place is fun to skate, getting better every time I go back, thanks to the heads for doing it. Funny graffiti this time around: Please be nice to the scooter kooks.
And if you needed some gay-friendly health advice, there's this pearl of wisdom.
Actual snow came down in Bellingham on Christmas Day. White Christmas!
Went to the Museum of History and Indsutry's grand opening with Meg and my dad. Awesome boats outside, and amazing exhibits inside. The iconic "Toe" truck.
Hat and boot! Shot a photo of Danny Minnick there that was a 2-page spread in Thrasher, but everyone remembers the Matt Hensley photo. These were moved to a nearby park, but apparently the neighbors get violent if you skate?
Only took the 550 out 3 times, as weather was shitty. The bike and the Mountain (Mt. Rainier). My phone was acting up...
Always go back and scope some pools. This one is done for good, apparently.
Mo and Max at the All City Showdown premier. Gnarliest backside boneless ever: Nolan Johnson, Garfield High.
We did finally get that session in at Delridge, on Sunday the 30th. Morris went to town cleaning and drying, and we all got to skate for a few hours. Morris is like the unofficial caretaker of the place, I suppose. Thanks Mo! Kevin racks up a burly FSG.
NYE was fun and kinda chill, but Russ couldn't help but point out that other folks were partying!
