Identity: friends and first job, Hank Parker's

I met the infamous Dave Berardi in the high school years of Rochester, NY. Fresh from Buffalo the kid caused endless trouble at school, killed anything on the skate, and worked constant all-nighters at the family rental spot. My first (real) job was hauling tables and chairs there, staking a 80'x60' tent in car dealer concrete. Many years and a severe concussion later Dave asked for some new branding for his successful rental stores. It's got that golf course wedding feel...

Many years back: Dave in action, Manhattan Square Park through the 4x5 Sinar.

Sighting: Elephant Seals Molting

The lady and I drove down the PCH from Big Sur unaware of Nature's plan: elephant seals shedding skin on the beaches of Cambria. We pulled over. They migrate to this beach every year to kick off some skin (known as 'molting') and just kick it.
God's land swept geometric pattern.
Dont front. These guys were practice scrapping and rolled over a nearby pup. She wasnt stoked. That's alota weight and these are just the kids.
