BHS 88 & some skating photos
So, I had my high school reunion (Bonneville HS in Idaho Falls class of 1988) a couple weeks ago. It was surprisingly fun to see a lot of people I hadn't seen in years. My good friend Barry was there and he brought and distrubted a bunch of old skating photos. Here are a couple of me (some of you probably won't believe these are me) from 1987 I believe. I haven't changed a bit have I?

Here's a picture of the old Skate or Die Crew (we really didn't call ourselves that, but it seems fitting now).

I love those pictures! I totally remember you in your pegged pants doing tricks in the driveway. Super funny! Did you tell your High School buddies about the time you tried skateboarding again a few years ago??? Does your arm bend straight yet??? ha ha ha!
By the way, Barry's white hair ROCKS! If my gray hair was that glamorous I may consider growing it out...
Wow, Darren. I'm impressed. You were really good. I was also thinking about when you tried skateboarding a few years ago.
Seems like yesterday!!! But we now have proof it wasn't...I also remember time spent in the hospital with Darren after a spectacular skateboarding head dive--even that provided good stories.
Wow Bro C! You should show those as an example of capturing motion! lol
They look pretty sweet!
Cool, dude!
Wow! I am at a loss for words!
I've heard you talk about it and now have seen the images to back it up. Pegged pants and skateboarding- very cool. If you haven't already, you should watch the movie, Thrashin'. It will make you want to pick skateboarding up again.
Far Out Man!!!
I'm thinking either one of those images would look great on a t-shirt.
Which photo, the one of all of us at the reunion? Actually, one of the skating pictures was used on a t-shirt, Carrie must have told you. Anyway, I'll have to scan it and put that on the blog.
Darren!
Just checking in on your life. Had I known you in 1987 & 88, I would have been quite impressed. Actually, I am impressed even now. :)
Skate or die, man. hehehe
