Bradents Part One

Had some (well appreciated) familiar faces visiting recently. Their trips overlapped so heres half of it-

Visit 1-Braden

Been a solid amount of time since me and Braden got our hangout on so he ditched teaching kids how to swim to come out and visit.

Day 1

Dinner at Foundation with Janine

Parking Lot Boxing

Gelato with Claire and Andrew

(they play insanely loud Italiano music inside, every employee hates their life, and all the vegan flavours are infused with alcohol- Tequila Lemon or Rum and Coke anyone?

Day 2

Hit JJ for muffins then bounced to Seattle (only took 5 hours because of the ultra effecient border-fuck life). Luckily upon arrival we were greeted by a Vegan Fishwich and BBQ Tofuwich care of Squid and Ink.

After a dinner fit for kings we headed downtown to some massive street festival that was going on. The fuzz was in full effect.

So were moonmen

The streets were LINED with shit

And shittalkers

After about an hour of wandering around that nightmare we hit up Barnes and Nobs where I peeped this gem

Then off to see a work of cinematic greatness

Day 3

Woke up late then hit Squid and Ink again, this time for epic French Toast and Sausage. Was WAY too hungry to take pics.

On the way out we boosted a motorcycle in the parking lot with the rental

Braden hadn’t been around Seattle much so I showed him some of the hot spots and managed to find this work of art along the way

Hit Sneaker City where the lady behind the counter was taking the purse fashion game to the next level

Mandatory Cyber Dogs Meal

After consuming an (un)healthy amount of veggieavacadodoggage we rolled down to El Corozan to see Gravemaker and Hatebreed shred. It was sick seeing Jon and meeting a bunch of other solid dudes. Show was packed as fuck and everyone was going off. It was too mental to take pics but heres one I pulled off this dudes flickr thats far better than anything I could have taken.

Chilled with everyone for a bit after the show then rolled back to Van but not before downing a couple of these beauties.

Day 4

Returned the rental then met up with Brody, Tom and his girl (who sadly just moved to Toronto) for a Mighty O Vegan Donut party at Gene.

Spent the rest of the day riding then met up with a huge crew for a Sweet Cheribum cookie mission. While enjoying our Vegan black and white cookies this fellow rolled by on his one of a kind mobile command unit.

His bike had it all- Fire, Music, Streamers, even motherfucking bubbles (which he proceeded to blow in everyones face semi-obnoxiously.

I’ll post Visit 2 in the next couple days…
