Last 2 weeks...Part 1-Albuquerque

So the last 2 weeks I have been off the grid. Not many updates, just traveling and skating. Sorry. Here's an iPhone photo dump from Albuquerque. Time in the ditch with a small crew of great friends was amazing!
Like Mecca is to practicing Muslims, Albuquerque should be to skateboarders. You need to visit once before you die.
Last 2 weeks routed kinda.
Mountains over New Mexico.
On approach to Albuquerque, NM.
P-2 Fire bomber. Aviation nerd is deep in me.
The owners of our fine Bed and Breakfast. Thanks Rob Ford!
There is a heaven and it is paved.
Pat-Chuck.
Towards the end of the ditch it narrows, life is tough.
Mile upon mile of mellow, perfect, gentle, inclined walls.

In reference to my above mecca comment;the best part about this place is you can wait until you're 55 to visit here, you will still be able to shred it, ollies aren't necessary.
I could see myself retiring in a little house that overlooks the ditches. Wake up, walk to the top, bomb a ditch, go to the bar. Retired life by Maxwell Harris White.

Thanks again to Rob Ford, Andrew Martin, and Patrick Schroeder for inviting me on this trip.
