Monkey Boy Rides!

Quick Trip Update!

It’s been a few weeks since i’ve added anything here as you’re fully aware. I’ve struggled to find the right mix of writing and just living in the moment, so as you can see I’ve chosen with just living in the moment. Well it’s time to change that. Since the last post a lot of life has been lived. So here is a quick photo update to show you what I have been up too!

When in Pismo Beach, CA you eat at Mo's BBQ!
