said i’d never go up there, but i did. here are some things i gathered on my venture

- i didn’t turn into a pumpkin once i crossed the mason dixon line

- it was really, really, really, really cold but i maintained a good attitude (if you can believe that)

- the autumn bowl is fun. the twinkie is annoying in a good way. the pool coping is gnarly but it works (just go faster)

- cheap beer is still cheap beer, even in new york

- tony lives next to a really annoying white noise

- manhattan is full of things that you don’t need (except skate spots)

- brooklyn is ok……i guess

- skating as a method of travel is fun but cold

- getting tattoos like a bunch of school girls makes for a good story

i had a good trip. thanks blue and tony. bill you still suck, but it was good to see you too. i didn’t bring any type of camera so don’t ask me to see pictures of the autumn bowl. that’s what google images is for.
