I just found Mr. Sikka hiding at Bill Charles.

Good digs.

snow with werehaus brotha's

I heart snowboarding so very much.

This year I've been lucky enough to mob with the kids at Werehaus. This four pack is tight knit slinga's. Husslin' media love for local small businesses in San Francisco.

These are our glory days.

All of us are looking to sink our teeth into the communities that surround the mountains and come up with something good. I imagine you will be seeing things trickle out over the next few months. Snow sparkles.

We stopped off after a two day run to Lake Mary. Pretty lovely.

via mini-van over the hills and to the mountains.

enjoy.

Never hurts to listen to a little Aretha in the a.m. Sets the day pretty well.

Only I got it on cassette, but this wizard look she's got going on is killa'

Dan at Willowgrass Ecological Gardens

My room mate and his lady are killas. Helpin' SF residents spruce up their yards with editable goodies and sweet love.

Dan in the Mission at a project he just finished. Madd skills.

Miss Ericka Sancé

One day I met this little Guatemalan lady.

She fell in love with my friend and they are happy together.

She also makes beautiful jazzy bossa nova kind of music with her band Sister Rogers. Listen.

She is precious and here are some photos to prove this:

If you get bored one day...

Find friends that like to jump outta airplanes and ride shotgun for free in the drop plane. You will not regret this.

Trip with the slick kids out to Perris, California

Jack Halloway's home + The Garage Sale Project

As I’ve mentioned before, I heart cubby spots, but I’ve also found that they don’t stay that way for long in SF.

I came across the Garage Sale Project (G$P) almost a year ago, and this has been one that has kept its charm. I was on a bit of a walkabout last winter and ended up tripping up with a few friends from LA and having a slumber party at this kid AUGUSTUS THOMPSON’s house. He was having a show at Mr. Holloway’s garage the following week and there was nothing but good vibes coming out of this place.

I’d happen to know Mr. Halloway for a few years through the world of photo and this man shares the same views of actually just doing what you want, how you want. It makes for a mash of a lifestyle, but Jack holds true to a genuine, well thought, and simple approach to all he does. It's a breath of fresh air.

I dropped by for the last opening of Richard Kenvin and the The Yard Possum’s show of Hydrodynamic Detritus. Jazzy. There is an aesthetic and vibe that has been apparent, blatantly in the Outer Sunset in the past decade, spawned off The Beautiful Losers / Mission School crew, but has seeped into the rest of the city. Halloway’s spot brings a bit of that to it's originating neighborhood, yet still explores the evolution of the lifestyle. Here are a few snaps for visual effects.

Enjoy.
