July Catch Up

We spent 4th of July in northern California in tiny nowhere town called Quincy which is up in the mountains to attend the High Sierra Music Festival. Basically a four day dirty hippie get together of camping and music and surprisingly decent beer. We mainly went to catch John Butler on his solo tour (which was crazy good), but there were a bunch of other good bands that we had the chance to see as well.



We left Callum with his Grandma and Grandpa (Jen's parents) and picked him up on the way back south, although we spent just enough time in Lincoln to watch the lowest exploding fireworks display in history with Brian and Nikki.

On the 10th my buddy Trent from Australia made the long trek to LA where I picked him up and we drove straight to Las Vegas. We spent the weekend in Vegas and I drove back late Sunday while Trent stayed on for the conference (which of course he claims was the real reason for his trip). He then flew from Las Vegas back to LA on the Thursday and spent the weekend with us before finally flying out to New York to continue his trip.

That same weekend we also had Jen's friend Alicia visiting, so we had a full house. Here is all of us at the Orange County Fair on the Saturday.




And a view from the Huntington Beach Pier on the Sunday.



Here's a gratuitous goofy Callum photo.



And a bonus naked butt shot.



And one of my wild-eyed niece Alison who is the spitting image of my sister at the same age.
