Jumping the Amarillo Ramp, 2002

In 2002, I flew to Amarillo, TX to propose Jumping the Amarillo Ramp to Stanley Marsh.  He invited me to his office where I had lunch with him and his staff.  He asked me what I'd like to eat, I told him that I'd like a steak... which I was served on a silver platter.  After eating, I pulled out my note pad and proceeded to propose hiring a motor cross biker to jump the ramp.  His response was that he didn't feel like Smithson would have wanted that, to which I replied in argument, "yes he would!"  Unfortunately, I was so nervous I left my note pad with the original proposal.  This is all the documentation I have.

Getty Project, 2002

In 2002 I contracted Jack Brogan to write me an estimate to move a travertine marble bench from the Getty Center, across the I405, to the summit of the Getty View Trail.
