Japan. 2007. Mogwai.

Music defines moments in our lives.

This one has been with me since I was a teenager.

Longevity.

Skating is at the end.

Tokyo, I heart you.

I can't wait to see you again this summer.

The money is already in the bank.

 Cop'n scoot.

 The only trike for me.

Still my favorite コンビニ.

 You can stop here if you don't like skating.

Mitaka Sports 広場.

This was the place for years.

 This manual pad.  

I need one.

Japan. 2006. ?.

I found 3 roles on cd of 110 photos from Japan while I was in the basement the other day.

You could think of it as a miniature version of medium format I guess.
Toy camera.

This is the first one.

The CD is labeled 2006.

Memories.

I randomly started talking to an old woman next to the skatepark one day.

 She said her dog loved skateboards so she took him here a lot.

 Random street setup.

 Timmy!

 Chillin' in Kuramo's bug.

 Kuramo's arm.

 The old road bike I used to keep there.

 I used to ride the bike 15 miles one way to skate this park in 90 degree weather a few times a week.

In Tokyo traffic.

Sometimes I would barely make it home.

Learned backtails and smith grinds here.

That prefab 5 was so fun...

 Nice hair.....

 More of TJ.

 Yuto.

 2 summers before I started teaching?

 Lambo.

I miss Tokyo.

I miss it a lot.
