i’ve lived in the same place for so long. being someplace new with no tour guide is more alien then all my times i’ve flown in to japan. i dont get the NW culture, and people can just tell im from out of town. and, im lost, all the time.

i went to cal’s pharmacy, witch i guess is different then cal’s skate shop.
but cal’s pharm, and the dept. of skateboarding is really close to where i am staying. so i am sure i will be there a lot.

portland, in just 2 days of biking, seems like spots for miles. from gnarly, to just small manny pads. i am sure people would say the same about nyc. probably something in knowing the area, and how people react.

i hate being in a new place. but once i get my bearings i love it. so here’s to hope. oh, and maybe i can score some tribute rain drop 53s. ha.
