My brother has been in a box in my other brothers kitchen for 7 months now.

On Monday we burry that box in Mammoth CA...

I am leaving in a few hours on a road trip to get there. Why I am sharing this, I have no clue...BUT...if WG AKA TC AKA East coast Hottie is reading...thanks for everything and I will call you from the road.

I will take plenty of pictures on my trip as this place is amazing and is a great place for my brother to rest in peace.

Thanks!

Thanks man...I am really looking forward to drinking beer, catching fish, and celebrating my brothers life.

He was the hippy type and wanted this place to be his memorial.

Ha, no where special, its for fathers day, at a bunch of man made lakes. Santee Lakes if you know where that is. I am just looking forward to eating a bunch and chillin. I wish I could drink some beers but I am currently on day 6 of 3 weeker of supedrol. I have been drinking Tecate and New Castle lately, they are my favorites beers for the moment, although New Castle is probably my all time fav.

THANKS GUYS.

I got your message TC, you changed your number though...I really do apreciate the call. :)

It was awesome. I am sore from hikes and a bit sunburnt. We found an awesome place for him and he has awesome eternal views.

It was 101 in the day and 45 at night, so therefore on our hike in the middle of the heat you would come across patches of snow. It was a trip.

Very very pretty place.

We went for a drive and came across some natural hot springs. It was 50 degrees outside and over 100 in the tub, that was so cool.

A few funny stories that were shared at his memorial.

My sister said that 2 days before he died he was laying in bed in the morning and she walked up to him and hw wasn't moving, barely breathing.

She though he had died in his sleep then all of a sudden he opened his his eyes and said "SURPRISE"

He was so confident he was going to beat it, but brain cancer is a *****!

I shared a story of a few years back when I was moving my pool pump system thingy to the other side of my yard. I called my brother up to help with the electrical part as he was good at that stuff and it scares the crap out of me.

After he was done he said

"I'm going to put my arm in the water to be sure there is no current going through the water, if I look like I am getting electricuted hit me good and hard with a 2 by 4 or something like that."

As he put his arm in the water I said "But Jay, there is no 2 by 4 or anything here"

Luckily he didn't get shocked.

He was an awesome skilled man that did everything about 90%

He left behind so many projects, (2 VW busses half built, furniture half built and a garage full of tools, and junk pinball macines ect)
