Jonesing

So it was about a month ago that I decided to start skating again.

Ironically, I have not had my skateboard out yet.

I bought a pair of knee pads so I could get back into skating ramps and bowls. I even bought a backpack specifically for carrying my skateboard. And yet I haven't been out yet.

Owl's Head is my home park. I have been riding my 24" Tonic Fab Fall Guy for the past year. Recently I decided to bring my skateboard along.

And yet I have not had the time to do anything about this plan.

Teresa and I took a train out to Montauk to camp and rode our touring bikes all over the place. We ended up on the north fork in Greenport, where I saw this:


And this...


And also this...


Needless to say this was torture, and it was difficult being in bike shoes, a lycra jersey, and my goofy road bike helmet while almost no one was using this park.

Teresa and I get married out there in August and we will spend the week on Shelter Island. I will be back.
