Simple Soulshine hippo drawing - I'd punch a hippo for you

Simple SoulShine

My wife punched a hippo to save my life. Now we're using our second chance to give kids a board of their own—skate, surf, or snow.

It's SIMPLE, make art, sell art, get kids on boards who couldn't afford them on their own.

SoulShine: A Love Story, Hippo Attack, & Fight For Survival

"Thirteen years together, flashing all at once. Not in order. Not clean. Just pieces. High school sweethearts. Sam proposing on the slopes of Chile. Our first date. Ten days ago, we got married. Stood on a cliff in Portugal, overlooking the ocean, surrounded by our loved ones, vowing a lifetime forever. "'Til death do us part.”

​

Now I am watching my best friend die in a swamp in Botswana."
