Ocean City Beach Trip

been to Ocean City MD more than any place on earth not named Pittsburgh. 6 hour drive, it's like a 2nd home to me and my family.

i try not to carry my phone on vacation, but this sunny morning i happend to have it on me... so i snapped just a few pics of some cool boardwalk sinage (that catches my eyes)... and an old friend of mine

enjoy:

 

wooden letter goodness:

 

love the colors:

 

what a cool name for a ride:

 

always make it a point to say hi to this guy:

 

this would look better hand painted. as it is, awesome... but a bit TOO perfect. love it anyway:

 

like the Fishers sign above, this is what wooden letters are all about:

 

anyway... want to see more? hop in the car and take a road trip

ma had a blast too. i mean, who wouldn't... Dumser's and everything...

eBay Score... Pencil Tin

snagged this from the clutches of eBay about a year ago. take it on almost every trip!

enjoy:!

front:

 

rear:

juicy middle:

everything you need, fits in this tin

and, well... day tripper:

product placement, you ask? why yes... yes i did.

Field Notes!

this beaut has been keeping me busy for the past 3 weeks or so, filling up with bad sketches.

the idea was though up by one of my new favorite designers/design team, Draplin Designs Co.

go check out his story, his work, and his videos... you'll never say "dude" again! that's a good thing

hope you all have a great weekend... fight for the long dogs!
