I’m on my way to @evelknieveldays to honor the Late Great @official_evel_knievel. This pic was shot when Evel came through my town, as he did on many occasions, and invited me and my family to dinner. This was a special moment in my life. I just got out of the hospital from the slam on my big ramp that put me in a mild coma and tore half my lip off. Here I have black eyes and stitches and an eight week old baby feeling pretty irresponsible cheating death again. After a major concussion you go through a depression where all the most engraved and tragic memory come back first without your pleasant joyful memories to balance you. When your in this state of mind and everyone around you are trying to save you from yourself, it can be pretty depressing. I needed someone to let me feel it’s okay to be who i am no matter how many critics are telling me to change. Thank Evel. Some people never change and that’s okay. This was one of those “I’m good enough, I’m smart enough, and dog gonnit people like me” moments.
