Espen: black and white

So, for all of you out there who are very keen on pictures of my son, I’m glad you are able to get more than your fill these days.  That being said, for everyone else, I plan to post more on my “reminiscing” strand soon, as well as images from some of the events I’ve...

EP’s scientific discovery…

This had to be one of the funniest things I’ve seen all week!  Not only has homeboy learned to climb up this entire slide while wearing his Crocks and holding on to the side, but he has found the environment in which static electricity is generated in great proportions.  I can attest to the fact...

J Rourke - Can I just throw out that I love that you call Espen EP, which reminds me of a short album a band would put out in between full albums or LPs. On another note I’m consistently impressed by your photography and your son’s ability to be so cool.

Kathryn - How FUN!!!! I’m glad his Crocs are being so helpful in his explorations! Let me know when/if he needs some bigger ones. Just measure the bottom and I’ll get him a larger size, ok? We miss you guys!! Love, Kakee

Regarding my rollerblading days…

OK, first things first.  We had two folks nail the right answer!  Both Amy and Jason!  Sorry, Jason, that I only give out one print per question.  I do give you props though for naming both the specific area (elementary school right next to Franklin) and the fact that they were short rails I was...

New perspective on an old device…

On our way to the park today, EP stopped by a local hangout spot he frequents…the neighbor’s trailer hitch.  Today, however, he was more adventurous and climbed inside the triangular area to explore the device from a different perspective.  It’s fun to see him take something he becomes so familiar with, and then see it...

Revisiting the past, part II…

Here’s another air session.  I started rollerblading back in 7th or 8th grade, I believe this picture is from my 8th grade or freshman year of high school.  This is actually still a way I experience peace: on blades. One of my favorite memories is an early morning in Portland (my hometown for those who...

Jason Huston - Cool Joel. I gotta guess a as I know I have seen pics of you on rails around Franklin and whatever school that was across the park from Franklin. Haha, now I am totally on memories of us playing soccer at that park and football, too. Though I am trying to picture shorter rails there that would be goo to learn on. Hmmm

serenity - Oh and by the way, I guess the orthodontist.

serenity - You had me laughing pretty hard on this one. I remember those days and I remember being so jealous that you got to run around downtown all by yourself. You two were little punks and I loved ya for it!
Still love you- looking forward to seeing you.
Hey did Cherice ever get my e-mail?? We’re going to be in Boston on Thursday. I’ll give you a call soon.

alisa - i’m totally guessing c. only b/c i’m sure you had a choice of head gear color (mine was a subtle blue) in middle school.

Amy P - I want to win something, so I’ll try and guess.

I don’t think it’s d because you like to try new things.

I could see you trying it at the high school but I don’t think that’s the answer.

I’m going to say it was a. Elementary schools are great for learning new tricks.

Did I win?????
