Went on a little hike to Bonita Falls in Lytle Creek. Bonita Falls is the second tallest waterfall in Southern California and well worth the short hike across the boulder filled wash. The only bummer about this place is how much graffiti there is on the rocks, kind of kills the beauty of the place. Enjoy.
So it’s been a while since my last post and even longer since the last time I shot skateboarding. I have to admit I felt a bit rusty, which meant TC had to do this tailslide fake twice. I tried to get him to do it a third time after I found a better angle, but he wasn’t into that plan.
Fortunately the rust went away pretty quick because the next spot TC told me redo’s were absolutely not an option. I don’t know why…
No biggy, just warmin’ up. Stay tuned for the banger.
The last spot of the day resulted in Mikey munchin’ on his tongue, running down the rail and then sticking a perfect lip.
One more for the road. Enjoy.
Jess and I went on a little hike up Rubio Canyon a couple weeks back. Pretty cool hike, nice waterfalls and great views over LA. Enjoy.
The last stop for us in Ireland was Donegal. We stayed in a castle outside the town, which was good because there wasn’t much going on anyway. The grounds were beautiful and provided a five-minute walk to an awesome lake. The highlight of this part of the trip? Crashing a wedding at the castle. Enjoy.
The rest of these photos were taken at various places while traveling from one town to the next. The last image is a panorama of the Titanic’s dry dock. This is another place that words can’t describe.
Our next stop in Ireland was a tiny village named Cong. We stayed in Ashford Castle, originally built in 1228. Over the years the castle has had a number of owners including the Guinness family. This place was incredible, really it’s hard to explain without actually seeing the place in person. The majority of these photos were taken during my early morning walks around the town and castle grounds. The morning light here was absolutely amazing. Enjoy.
Finally! The first round is from Dublin. Enjoy.
While in Dublin, we took a side trip to the charming fishing village Howth (rhymes with both). A short 30-minute train ride from the city took us a world away. The quaint town was positioned against the relentless sea and even in the gusting wind, we had a great time. Luckily for us, Sunday was the perfect day for such a visit as there were street fairs filled with local artisan crafts and deliciously appealing local cuisine. Better yet, we stumbled upon a bagpipe competition where more than 20 bagpipe groups practiced their art in the grassy park. It was an amazing side trip to say the least… J.R. Cartie
