WHAT A WEEKEND...

What a GREAT weekend!!! Let me start off by sending my condolences to the Negos family for their loss... Then let me say it was a celebration this weekend, and it started Thursday night at Voyer for our boy Jordan's birthday, lots of drinks and I still had to wake up at the crack of dawn to go to LA in the morning. So after only getting like 2 hours sleep the night before Ddubs and I swoop up Iron Mike, drop off Tarzan in Scripps, get some morning runs on the mini ramp and shoot out to Del Mar to meet up with Crispin and Price, mind you its only 10 o'clock in the morning... We're all packed and ready to roll for the First Annual Curb Crusher Venice Beach pilgrimage and skatepark adventure!!! We hit the gas station and stopped by the most LUXURIOUS McDonald's I've ever been to!!! complete with gelato and panninis and all type's of ill shit.
So we get on the road and Price decides to make a pit stop, remember it's only 10:45 am... TIME TO START DRINKING? Yes... It's a bar, and apparently it's tequila and beer time!!! Fuck it!!! So be it... With drinks and pool under the belt all before noon we hop back on the road and make our way up to LA... BAM! Venice Beach... We find parking and make our way out to the beach. As we get closer to the skatepark I realize it's a lot smaller and tighter than it looks in the pics, but after a few minutes of carving around it all starts to come back. We sessioned for about an hour and a half then stopped by a couple of shops, I picked up some ill all black 1/4 top winos at this surf shop Mollusk, pretty rad surf shop...
Everybody was getting hungry so we hit up this little Mexican spot that has CRACKING carne asada. Irons homegirl Cher Chez stopped by to say hello real quick, then we jumped on the freeway back to SD because Irons and I had to Dj that night. We stopped for gas and donuts and right as we got back into SD Price wanted to make another pit stop... That's right, the same bar!!! We get back to DT finally and shoot straight over to Confidential for our usual Friday gig, it's our boy Jordan's birthday so we were expecting a good crowd. My ass was dragging but it was CRACKING in there so after a few more drinks I got my stride back!!! As usual the music was off the chain, and some unexpected guests made their way thru. All in all a successful night shout out's to Lanie from Hellz for stopping by, and Happy Birthday to our boy Jordan... Hope you had fun.
It's 3 in the morning as I make my way to the pad and I'm delirious from lack of sleep, I need some rest because I have to attend a memorial for my cousin Price who's mother passed away last week. It's early Saturday morning and I make my way into DT to scoop up Aly and head over to Price's sister's for the his mom's memorial... Friends, family, food, tears, laughs, celebration of life and a TON of tequila. it was good to see the family and pay our respects and after about 11 shots Aly and I say our goodbye's and head back DT to get ready for the night...
AND OH YES!!! The Pacquiao fight at Irons!!! Pizza ,beer, friends and countryman and one of the BEST GODDAM FIGHTS I'VE SEEN IN A LONG TIME!!! My hats off to Cotto for hanging in there, got MAD heart!!! But my boy did it again!!! with style and grace Manny came out with the V!!! Now it's sleepy time.. mind you, it was only Saturday night but I was going home to sleep till Monday!!! Peace to everybody who came out this weekend and made it SUPER RAD!!!
