Everything we have done to prep for this tip has been ten times more difficult than it has needed to be. Clarke is outside right now futzing with the Thule rack. Far too many complicated Swedish illustrations with far too little words to describe what we should actually be doing. Launching soon. 

   It takes 3 quite expensives boxes to attach the rooftop circus to the vehicle. 

Awkward hand twists.

Hey all,

Sorry for the lack of posts yesterday. Kimmel and I had a busy day ripping around Denver in search of camera equipment, car vinyls, and bike racks. Not to mention I have managed to misplace my Thule keys. Looks like we’re in store for an early trip to REI for some spare keys..

Anyway, yesterday was full of driving in rainy circles and getting lost in the Denver metro area..

Nothing like driving through a treacherous rain storm and talking on the phone. But hey, had to fill Keri in on the updated plan as we were on route to the Level 1 headquarters to retrieve some camera gear.

Luka, Josh Berman’s husky, was the first to greet us as we entered the Level 1 home. Always a friendly face..

Walking upstairs we found everyone hard at work. It was good to stop by and check up with the crew for the first time since the winter..

We made a quick stop by Snarf’s to grab some food. Notice Kimmel in the background looking all business, Freedle all grub-face in the foreground..

We made our way by Mad Graphic’s pad to pick up some new vinyls for the car. Neil is the mastermind behind all the Jiberish stickers..

Neil working the logo placement..

Looking good..

That’s all for now. Time to go load up the wagon and take off…

Seamus Flanagan is on board for our Hood Shoot!

The 12-year-old Minnesota native will be making his way west this summer to join us for our stay in Mt. Hood. Expect the little man to be laying it down in front of our lenses for your viewing pleasure..

In other news, it turns out that Level 1 Productions will be around the Hood area while we’re there, shooting for their upcoming release titled Refresh. Expect another all-time segment being produced from that shoot..

Friday, June 12th is coming faster than expected. It’s a big date for us at Just Passing Thru as it marks the launch-off date for our inaugural three-week trip. If you haven’t gotten the low down on our travel plans, be sure to check out the “About Us” section of our site..

As of now, those starting the trip in our loaded-down Subaru Forester are athletes Keri Herman, John Symms, Michael Clarke, and videographer Blake Kimmel. We will be sure to see many faces cycle in and out of the vehicle as the trip progresses. Be sure to check up on the site as we finalize our plans for the excursion and fill you in on all our plans..
