I received another historical bit the other day from Uncle Hawk, a man I'd love to do a video profile on at some point:
"I went with a guy named Otis Chandler who a couple of years later became the owner of the Los Angeles Times, he was an Olympian too. Look him up. He took me and my brother when I was 15, Dan was 16 1/2, our first time there and maybe our 5th time surfing, so it was a big deal. My dad was there too. I have a book about Chandler, if you want more info about him, I have a book about him. We called him Animal behind his back."

Your connection and history with that place is amazing. It's such a special park. Well done.
I'm convinced the day I put a deposit on a flat in the city, you will be in north county signing the deed on a mom and pop gas station.
You got me pegged, that's for sure. But I love New York. And as soon as you get here, there will be one more reason to stay.
Thanks Christian. It is a bit long and meandering, this film, but thats been pretty fun to do lately.
The style is great. I'm learning that the vids I make for me and my friends are the ones I like the most.
