  • It's not always easy to find dreamers in such a rugger place as the Pacific Northwest. Northern California, Oregon & Washington are known for tough conditions, storms & heavy currents. Sneaker waves & weeks of down pouring rain are quite common so from a traveling surfer's perspective we absolutely scored out here on the RV road trip! Thank you for all of the stoke & support FOR THE DREAM!!! - Ben

    Yo JP Bro!! I’m so sorry. I’ve lived and surfed (bodyboard) in Oregon all my life. I also have Crohns and have walk through those same ER doors up at OHSU multiple times. I believe I had a healing event and am now basically asymptomatic. I’ll be praying God radically and totally heals your guts too JP! ❤️

    I’ve always loved your ability to share life, Ben. Glad your enjoying the beauty of the PNW. Admittedly, I was a bit sad you left JP. It’s easy to feel like a burden in life. I’d imagine having a chronic disease like JP enhances that feeling. What a beautiful gift to stop what we deem important and stoop to lift each other. And especially in moments of weakness. After all, this is what makes being human so special. Love you, Ben.
