@therealcrazytown man this one hits hard while I was going through chemo Seth and we're chatting allot and told me he was coming to van and I should come to his show. At the time I was at my 3rd appointment and he msged saying he was coming across the border and I told him I'm in hospital doing my treatment. He wanted to come visit in the hospital but they took longer then they had thought so hes was like come tonight to the concert it's on me. Meanwhile my wife @lisaamstraat
driving us home with our 3 month new born son and my best friend @evuin is on his way down to see me. I'm telling her Seth keeps telling me to come tonight and she didn't even think twice and said you have to go you (most amazing wife ever) so I called @evuin said we're going dt to meet Seth from crazy town. He's like who the hell is that hahahhaha I'm wanted to hit him im like you know the song butterfly, he replied oh ya how much that cost I said it's free we are meeting them dt at the venue. So we went. We had a blast and I still think of that night and still can't believe the connection I had with Seth. I'll miss him allot he had his demons we all do but he was the sickest dude ever. From his song butterfly to celebrities rehab with @drdrewpinsky and that one random night at his concert hours after doing chemo thank you @therealcrazytown rest easy bro love you man ,🤘❤️😢 by @joshstraat

Today was one of those moments in time where my inner kid came out and I got to meet one of my hero airobatic air show teams. I have been going to the air show for as long as I can remember; I was probably 4 or 5. Now my son is that age and I get to take him.
@fraservalleylug Lego club we get to do some pretty amazing things but the airshow is by far my favorite event. Today will be a day that I will always remember.
I built a moc of 9 @cfsnowbirds for the @abbyairshow display out of Lego and at the end of the day the entire team came over, signed them and asked if they could keep the planes. I kept the signed piece (of course) and each pilot got to keep the plane they fly.
This to me was my way of giving back to them for all the years of watching their shows and being truly in awe. Thank you @cfsnowbirds for always putting on an amazing display for all of us life long fans, you are our heroes and I will always be grateful for the kindness they all displayed towards me today. #abbotsfordairshow #afol #fraservalleylug #hero #lego #onestudatatime #jets #snowbirds #moc by @joshstraat
