California Day 2 Hit The Beach!

The second day we decided to get up early and hit the beach. We decided to try a beach within walking distance to get back in the swing of things after being away from the ocean for a year. It wasn't the best beach to bring the surfboards to but it was a great spot to body board and skim board. We even went a second time that day. Later that night we had a BBQ and as usual Colin and James went all out with the tastiness of the food.

California Day 1 Mardi Gras!

Mandi and I had an amazing trip to California. It was filled with non stop fun and many surprises. The first day we arrived with went out and did some body boarding. When we got back to the beach house we ate dinner and what would we experience out in the street? A Mardi Gras party! The neighbors had a live band marching up and down the street and tons of people in costume all having a great time. Other neighbors joined in throwing beads off the balconies. We had a great time dancing in the street that night.

Wasatch Classic Volkswagen Car Show

2 weeks ago Mandi and I put our bug in the Wasatch Classic Volkswagen Car Show. We were very popular with all of the little kids. Here are some photos of my family that stopped by.

I AM A ROBOT

Russell decided to shoot some more of his movie a couple of weeks ago and I was lucky to play the robot. Here are some photos of me in the Robots flight suit.

Bo Huff Rockabilly Car Show

We drove down to East Carbon Utah yesterday and had an amazing time at the Bo Huff Rockabilly car show. We had a chance to meet Mr. Huff himself. Nicest guy around.


Huff took an interest in Krystal's baby Mila because of his grandson who is the same age. Krystal and his daughter hit it off right away. She even offered to let Krystal use their trailer while taking care of Mila.

I found out that this old sedan delivery was the same type of car my Dad was driving back in high school.

A car to match that pretty dress of Mandi's.

A picture of Mandi and I in a 58 Vet. Lovely.

Mandi was in a Pin-up contest that night and I was in a Pompador contest. I made the top 5!

We stayed late to watch the sensational band "Mad Max and the Wild Ones" They are all family and all cool. I have never seen so much talent come out of a band that together weighs under 400 lbs.
Here is a picture of their dad Mad Max.

The oldest son Wyatt who started the band and rocks on the guitar.

Second oldest is Cole who is absolutely amazing on the drums.

The youngest member of the band is Duke. He's the lead singer and plays the harmonica and guitar. This kid knows how to work the stage.



Here is a beautiful combo of the show complete with car, matching trailer and bike. What a way to travel.

This is a car from the personal collection of Bo Huff. Beautiful!

This is the very best of the rat rods. You can't get any lower than this and you can't find a car with more parts either.

This Cadillac Hurst was probably my favorite car of the night. It was converted into a woody wagon. It has a Chevy station wagon top and all custom wood interior.


This is a lot like the car my brother Russell is fixing up in his garage but the rear end of the car is different. Nice and curvy.


This is going to sound funny but I have a fetish for Dash boards. Here are my two favorites of the show.

California Camping Trip Video

I have been putting together some video clips from our last years California Camping/Surfing Trip. The full video is 30 min but I had to split it up into 5 segments in order to get it up on youtube. So sit back and enjoy our California trip of 2009
