Millers 8'0'' Jaws

Matt Millers 8'0'' Jaws , getting close to Halloween seemed like a good time to paint Matt's board.



Gotta wonder what a big Whitey would think of if he rolled up on this board and looked up.



One of Jonny's tubiculer foiled fins, Matt says he likes them.



Bottom.



Deck.




2'' 7/8's thick and foiled very thin on the rails. PS, talked to Liddle this am and he is healed up and shaping again so if anybody wants to order a board , let me know, kirkripper@yahoo.com or liddlesurfboards.com

We took our first trip to see Estaban Bojorquez in Santa Fe, NM..... Dr. Fez lives



Built by Bojo.



His new art studio.



Front yard.







Life size, at one of many museums we saw.



Estaban, Denise and myself at 516 Arts Gallery in Alburquerque, NM, opening for Superheros their new exhibition, they chose Mr. Bends to be in the show , 16 artist from all over the globe and 2 from New Mexico and Estaban was chosen a very big honor, a very cool show.



Brunch at the famous Cowboy grill, I had to have chicken fried steak.



Casa de Bojo new fireplace.



This was at Kowboys vintage store I don't have a clue how this showed up in Santa Fe, I bought a lot of stuff there over the years .



A classic LC.












New museum in Santa Fe. Glad to hang with Estaban and Karen and her mom Vivian . After hanging out for the last 25+ yrs everyday , they lived right around the corner from us, it was good to see them.
