bummer goes south

on dec 27th, we all crammed into a car and took trip out to raleigh, north carolina to visit john keiper and escape the illinois winter. got to skate a bunch of awesome spots, eat a lot of really good food, drink some beers, make some friends, and it couldn't have went any better! thanks to mike, john and james for letting us crash at their house and showing us around your city!! can't wait to come back!
