Off the Beaten Ramp

Hey everyone. This is Graham Dickie, and here is how you can find my photo story about unofficial skate spots. 

I embedded the slideshow on the photos page of my personal blog. Please note that the widget doesn't display the captions; you have to go fullscreen and click "More Info" for those. The rest of the information is available there as well, but here it is again:

Summary:

Places:
Numerous, including South Austin, Cesar Chavez, and the downtown public library
