You Gotta Pay To Play

You Gotta Pay To Play

Well, I'm back in the States, and it really hasn't hit me. Both that I'm here, and that I've been in Europe since May. It went by way too quickly. Reminds me of the Social Distortion lyric: "Life goes by so fast. You only wanna do what you think is right. Close your eyes and it's passed. Story of my life..." That song is the anthem. I wanna put out some big ups to those that made my visit an awesome one: Iain, Paul, and J9 for the accomodation in 107 Strath. That was really what made this entire trip possible. Please infiltrate the "Freedom Fortress" so I can repay the favor. The rest of the Tahoe extended familia including Bryce and Leigh, Dave and Maria, Trev, Marc and Wendalina. Catherine, Cathryn, and Kathryn. Jokes, I just threw in an extra Kathryn for giggles. The Meyers, Andy, Tyrone, Danielle, Dylan and Carlota, Russell and Jessica. So many people, I know I'm gonna forget to mention someone, so I'll just stop here. Is it cool to be back in the States? Kinda. I'm looking forward to spending some time in the ocean. But that's pretty much about it. There's nothing about this place other than surf and some people that I miss at all. Not even my truck. Maybe mexican food.

I remember last season, speaking with Shane-o about being a jaded traveler. For every hello, there's gonna be a goodbye. I lost my train of thought just now, and I'm not sure where I'm going with this. But the fact is: you gotta pay to play. JB showing us that lesson now in this pic.
