Mike Lay at home.

I’d strongly urge folks to watch the new @seth.hughes // @finisterre piece about Mike called ‘Gwynnik’ on YouTube if you haven’t already. Family, community, fun, connection. It’s an uplifting and inspiring watch.

Shot last year on a trip far west where we got to see @laymike and family thriving in their home environment.
