sat on the sidelines and watched
Aaron stick Miller flips and Cody
smack his head. Deadly place.
Back to Portland and into the night,

The usual consumption went down,
and Aaron was giving this Brit girl
shit because he hated her. I lost
money on dice and my fingernails
were full of grime.
Halloween was mayhem. Red
ruled and jumped into the face wall
from the highest point. There was
a barbecue and friends: Too-
many things happened, so
it's hard to remember. Cake was
thrown on the ground, a party
was ruined, these girls hated
me and tackled me into a cor-
ner, pumpkins were tossed at
diesels, a stripper danced in a
van, a friend stayed with the
stripper, I kooked it, and there
was a bonfire at Burnside.
The following day we were
back on the road to skate
Talent, Jacksonville, and
Ashland again before we
headed home.
Everyone was recovering and Neil
had food poisoning from eating raw
produce. Zac got another room in
Ashland at the same hotel, and Chet
was on a plane to North Carolina
because he found out his foot was
broken. We were all pretty much in a
heap from a nine-day binge of skating
and other matters, so after the much-
needed rest, the session was on at all
the surrounding parks and it was
time to head home.
The mission was complete and I felt
scummier than ever. Thanks
to 151 and Zac for putting
up with us.

Neil Heddings sticks his chest out to show off his
spanking new tattoo.
Still: Aaron Harrison hangs onto a backside air over
the most popular feature of the Talent skatepark.
