Every. Dang. Day.


I walk or skate past this thing on my way to and from work. It looks like it should be properly skated, but there's not really anything to do with it. It mocks me every day and needs to be put in its place.

The rail is knobby and poorly attached and that stupid pole is in the middle of the tiny amount of usable ledge space. It's not very high, so you could do some wacky tricks over it, but the run-up sucks and it dumps you out right into the street and sometimes I get sad when it rains and apparently I just don't have what it takes to conquer this spot.

that is sad.
want to hear a sad story?
about a month ago we drove up the maine in the middle of the night, and harry fell asleep while i was driving, so i missed our exit and went about a half hour further than it. so i realized something was wrong, woke him up and pulled off at the next exit and into a closed gas station. and there we found a sick, sick skate spot. but it was cold, and harry didnt have his board with him. and it was like 1 am in the morning and starting to snow. it was sad.
