Colorado Springs or Tony Hawk or Whatever?

OK...so here's the deal. A couple of folks called me up telling me about the "grand poo baa" opening at the Nederland skatepark. Tony Hawk is gonna be there. Which is way cool. However, I also know that an ass load of people are gonna be up there as well. 

Hey if my neighbor, chick 27 yrs. old, doesn't skate, called me up to tell me, I think everyone in the state now knows. Besides, about two weeks ago, this dude called me up asking me if I wanted to set up a booth up there. He told me that over the course of the weekend they'll be about 10,000 people up there.  

So, I'm not gonna get to skate, there's gonna be a double ass load of grommets up there, and there's only one way into Nederland and one way out.  I think I'll pass. Hey, Tony Hawk is awesome, if and when I ever get to meet him, I'm gonna thank him SO much for the $$$ he donated to the Bennett DIY skate project, and Nederland and so many others. I just don't want to plow through 10,000 grommets to do so. Hell, I just got done teaching, why would I want to throw myself back in the fiery pit of doom?

Anyway, I'll be skating tomorrow morning at the Springs with Lindsey and the Conspiracy guys, I hope everyone has an awesome Saturday where ever your skate trip takes you!
