    Acrochicken....Life is not a dress rehearsal.....you get one shot at it and you should choose the path that makes you happy, if at all possible.....you obviously have talent and passion for your imaging work (very nice stuff), so you should pursue it....your life will not be easier, but it will be better....and I wish you and your wife all the best!
     
  5. Great pics, and thanks for putting them up. Good luck with the switch!

    Awesome Pics John. I didn't get to walk around the show....so it's nice to see all the great cars that showed up. The Kontinentals did a great job this year.

    Cool pics and good luck with the carreer change! I admire you for having the nads to go thru with it.
    Some people spend years in a career doing something that has little or no reward and that they have almost no interest in, just to have a steady income and maintain some semblence of responsibility. Then wind up hating their job and dread going to work everyday.
    Wait a minute, I'm talking about me!! How did this turn into a confession!! What was the name of that dealership? I need a career change!! Seriously.

    You should be shooting for a living.. good stuff dude.. stopped by your booth for a little bit.. asked about the skateboards & how they're printed (wish I had more money to buy at least one) didn't introduce myself.. I'm horrible at that... anyway keep taking pictures...

    I think life is about taking chances when the time is appropriate. Good for YOU taking a chance and trusting in yourself to move forward with what you love doing! Best of luck to you!

    Sorry I meant Acrochicken not you Scooter. Not sure why I quoted you. Acro needs to hold on and things will look up once his wife is finished with school.

    Scooter, you get far to much work done on your Hot Rod for you to be married.:D
