Derby time

Ahh yes the good ol fathers day fishing derby, so much fun we never miss one. This year we left Spencer at home with mom, he can be a bit of a handful with all the other kids fishing. The fishing was actually terrible though lol almost all the kids got nothing I think 5 fish got caught in 3 hours, it was just not a good dock fishing day. But realistically none of them cared George was stoked just to get the biggest piece of kelp lol. I was happy to see George flex his fishing skills he is getting so good at casting and jigging he was teaching other kids this year I did not even have to help him at all. A good time was had by all cant wait for filomi days for the next one. We also had a huge photo session with the lady who shoots for the newspaper so hopefully we make it in there this week keep an eye out!

Totem pole

 Here is the worlds biggest totem pole in all its glory. I am lazy today so I am going to copy and paste some info for you guys here.

The totem pole was built from two sections, one 163 feet tall and the other 10 feet. While most totem poles represent a single family, this one is meant to represent different factions of the Kwakwaka’wakw people. The figures include the Sun Man, a whale, an old man, a wolf, the Thunderbird and its cousin, the Kulusł, a two-headed serpent, a bear holding a salmon, and a raven holding copper. Despite the raw numbers that the Alert Bay totem pole holds the title with, hardcore totem pole enthusiasts have called foul on the carved wood spire due to the fact that it was built from two pieces rather than one. According to such record pedants, the true heir to the title of world’s tallest totem pole is a 140 foot pole located in Kalama, Washington, which is one solid length of wood. However because it was not carved by an indigenous artisan some do not count it as a proper totem pole either.This categorization is so contentious that the world’s former tallest totem pole, a 185 foot giant that stood in Victoria British Colombia (which was also built in sections) was actually taken down after a great deal of protest. However, even when a vicious wind knocked off the Alert Bay totem pole’s top section it was still the tallest in the world. 

Pretty damn cool if you ask me it is just amazing, anyways this was a 3 frame photo with the 35mm prime I then flipped them on their side and blended into a panorama then flipped it up rite.......this pictures actual size is god damn massive, as for editing I did turn up the colors slightly as the pole is pretty faded and I wanted to show the little paint that is still left on it. Hope you enjoy this I am trying to update more frequently but kids and work are taking my time lately lol
