The Modified World of a German Man

As a German born child, naturalized as a US citizen, I was raised by my mother to be somewhat cognizant of the implications of piercings and tattoos and their longterm impact on the offering of lifes opportunities. Suffice it to say, I waited four decades before it began.

It never made sense to pursue my dream of adorning beautiful artwork without a plan, a theme, and more importantly a great artist. Pooh Bear or Tweety Bird just wouldn't cut it for me. Not to mention I live by the " Go Big or Stay Home" school of thought. If you have an interest in the best Pigment Surgeon, otherwise known as "The Killustrator" visit J.D. Brosius at Never Say Die Tattoo in Harrisburg, PA. His work is truly outstanding and he does remarkable custom work. 

And so at the age of 48 my journey began. We had fun.

Jennifer needed my help....

She couldn't find a way to share pictures without inconveniencing our families and friends. Since my blog is dedicated to fun, and not just the fishing variety, I decided to intervene and really step up and help Jennifer out. I love being able to save the day for her. It makes me really happy to be "superman" when I can.  This post encompasses the first two weeks of our adventures in Pennsylvania. Enjoy the picture tour......we had fun.
