Well lookey here, it seems that fall snuck in the back door and kicked summer to the curb. It was a fun one for sure, but I'm ready for the mercury drop and the promise of snow on the horizon.

After spending some time with family back in Maine, I dedicated much of September to chasing surf and planning for the winter around the corner.

In the mean time I was able to publish some work and made my book debut with an essay in POWDER's new coffee table book, Monumental. A book, yo! The book is part of a larger digital feature and film that will make its debut in a couple days. Though I only played a small part in the whole thing, it's great to be a part of something like this—especially when that something is celebrating 100 years of National Parks.

As always, thanks for checking in, and keepin' it tranquilo.
