But being in the middle of New York City, it's hard to explain the culture to people who grew up here. I get a lot of, "You drove 4 hours just to go sit in a field and drink beer?"
On the other hand, the lowriders in my neighborhood where I live totally get it. When I'm out working on my van in the street, I get nothing but respect from them.

Some people will get it, some won't. Ive taken enough time off to go vanning that my boss and co workers know the drill. Didn't really have to ask for it off, they just assumed I was going. Some of them even wanted to see the video I shot.
How is sitting in a field drinking with your buddies and their awesome vans any different or "crazier" then getting up at the crack of dawn to sit in a boat and not catch anything; or a tree and not shoot anything.

I have done nothing to propagate nor dissuade them from that notion. | | | Re: Back to reality... | Joined: Jul 2010 Posts: 1,294 member | member Joined: Jul 2010 Posts: 1,294 | So they hit the nail on the head huh Catfish....sinners!
