Days in paradise are better than days in Spokane…. šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚ Watching these massive jets landing over my head never gets old. And enjoying sand, sun, surf, and suds while plane spotting? Epic! # #sxm #pjia #mahobeach #thingsiveseen stmarteen

It was mid February, 2015. I was driving across Montana to go ride, no real plan. @thoughts.of.james and @koyotegirl texted that they were headed to Seeley Lake MT so Jim could film a segment with this ā€œkidā€ for Thunderstruck and asked if I wanted to join. We showed up and the kid was @calebkesterke I’d never heard of him at the time, and he was on a skidoo that was ridden so hard, it was literally held together with sticks. We filmed all day, and when we got back to the truck, instead of joining us for dinner, Caleb filled his sled up and went back to go night ride because he wanted more practice. I was blown away by his dedication and enthusiasm towards the sport. It was a ride I’ll never forget! Fast forward a decade, and he’s one of the most recognizable names in the industry. Still pushing. I’ve been so impressed on what you’re doing on and off the hill. Congrats on your upcoming film release. And keep doing what you’re doing.

A couple fun family get-togethers for Dad’s 90th birthday and Easter weekend. Got to crack a bada$$ bottle of bourbon to celebrate! Always fun to have the Phelans get together! #pappyvanwinkle

It was always a dream of mine to watch the planes flying in to St Barts from the west. I went there a while back to watch but they were landing from the east! Boring (actually still really cool). Got a chance to go back recently and the pilots were landing down the steep hill from the west and it was so dang cool! I took the front seat in the plane so I could watch out the windshield and the video is incredible. Jumped in the rental car and drove to the top of the hill for some fun! Paella in Gustavia and sitting at Nikki Beach enjoying the amazing weather. Cheers! #stbarts #sxm #gustavia #stbarth #airplanes #adrenaline

I’ve had breakfast at the Musical Legends Park too many times to count. Walked into St Louis Cathedral for quiet time. Sat at Jean LaFitte’s, day and night, sipping on amazing pirate drinks. And just walking Bourbon St….. would’ve been amazing to be there with 8ā€ of snow!!! I’m sure you’ve all seen the videos and pictures…. I’ve been in Baton Rouge during a snow storm. It’s truly awesome to see those massive oak trees covered in snow. But what I would’ve done to be on I-10 in my truck with no other traffic…. I’d probably have some broken bumpers! Historic storm and historic fun. Cheers to memories! 🄃 #nola These are not my photos! #nolasnow #frenchquarter #bourbonstreet

Over 20 islands in the last year or so and I still can’t get enough of those beaches and the warm water. If you haven’t visited Saba Rock or Jost Van Dyke let’s go!! Such an amazing time each time I visit the Caribbean. #sxm #stbarts #bvi #anguilla #stthomas #stjohnusvi #bonaire #curaƧao #scrubisland #sabarock and so many more! Cheers and thanks to this beautiful world we get to see when we travel! #travel #caribbean

Donkeys need love too!! Once used to haul salt to passing ships, they were left on the island to grow and multiply after the Industrial Revolution. Now they are just fun to feed and cuddle with! #BON #bonaire #bonairedonkeysanctuary #scuba #scubadiving #underwater
