Turo.
One of the brightest stars in the firmament of our family, Turo is so generous with his time, skills, support, and love that it's easy to get spoiled and risk taking him for granted.
His beautiful pictures, his amazing MacGyver (one of my favorite shows, too, sweetie) creations, and his mad sewing skills are dwarfed next to the essential Turo - his radiant smile, his great sense of humor, his rock-solid-ness, his style, his cozy-quiltiness (he's like a big down comforter on a cold, rainy day - you feel warm, safe, and snuggled), and his amazing outlook all make Turo truly one of a kind, and I am blessed to call him my friend.

Listen, what is the big F'n deal about this Turo guy? I mean Jesus triple H Christ people! So he's obnoxiously good looking, he's an incredible photographer, he happens to have anything you need all the time, he'd give you the shirt off his back and somehow make it look even cooler before it hits yours, so what that he makes his own costumes, and that he's the only man on earth that can look great in a speedo AND tell you what time it is, what's so hot about making your own almond liquor to share with your friends . . . and . . . er . . . um . . . hmmmmm.

Yeah, Ok . . . Turo fuckin' rocks.

Turo - The first man i ever met who I ACTUALLY believe deserves to be worshiped a little. Clearly way more streamlined then most human beings will ever become. A good man. Imagine what the world would be like if there were more like him? Turo is one of those people you feel lucky to know.

Turo is made of magic.

So yeah... I just gotta say I have a short list of my favorite people on the planet and this guy is high on that list. He is like a boy scout, always prepared and ready to help a friend in need... actually he is more the kind of guy that instead of waiting to be asked or even asking if you need a hand, he sees a problem or a need and immediately gets to work on the solution. He's smart and funny, he has incredibly soft skin, totally hot (I mean DAMN!!!!), his energy is beautiful and he always puts a smile on my face. He can throw down at a party, speaks Spanish in the most fabulously sexy way, and does this crazy massage thing that makes you feel like one big puddle of smooshy goodness when he's done. So- I am glad you are not really a boy scout Turo, maybe a man scout instead, otherwise I might worry about these crazy feelings I have for you getting me in trouble.

MWA!!!! all over your face

I'm probably not the first to experience this with Turo, but he just kinda happened upon me. I was just mindin' my own bizness, spinning records in his camp. He didn't really know me, I didn't know him, he just kinda made himself known to me, in all his blazing speedo glory. And damn, am I thankful to the universe that he did. He welcomed me into a beautiful space that he calls RLD, to experience the loving beauty of the friends he calls, and now I call, family. We are brothers, true. How can we not be? We use the same material! Love you Turo. Thank you for bringing me home again.

He is a renaissance man, a jack of all trades, someone without whom none of us would know what we have known. This man took me in when my life was in shambles. He gave me hope when I was on the verge of oblivion. He has seen me come from happiness to depair and back, and he has never left my side. I own him more than I could ever repay. I love you my friend.

Turo makes me wanna git gay

I would die for you

Behold is a man that is more than you can possible imagine, so take a deep breathe when he is delivered to your universe. A man of greatness such that he will create and accomplish feats you are not prepared to witness nor are able to understand the depths of the efforts involved because he unfolds them so magically and with such ease. Yes, he's intellectual and articulate as they come. I do believe he could lead 1000 men into battle. Yet why I love this man and what you will find so remarkable is that while he could be running the corporate world or society in a storm, he lives in the epitome of his ability to see beauty on earth, capturing and dispersing love and passion through his photography. He is a man that inspires me to live to my greatest capabilities in creation and the arts. I do believe he can see the depths of each soul and thus he waits patiently to capture the moment when you appear true & in genuine form in front of him. It is then that you are gifted with a picture of so much truth, beauty, and reflection of yourself, you are overwhelmed and breath taken. *I told you to breathe :)* Outside of photography he is a builder and creator of visions and all are executed with such exquisite perfection. He is his greatest critic and judgment on himself, so when you feel his vibration of stress or fatigue, embrace him with love & a hug and tell him he is remarkable. And when you find yourself in his universe, do not be surprised that he has a knack for dispersing love through his smiles, embraces, and healing magical hands in moments when you need it most. Turo, your efforts towards the co-creation of the Red Lights District will undoubtly live in my memories of greatness. May I be one of your many supporters as I follow your visions in faith of what is possible. With much Foxie lovin & appreciation for blessing my soul with your incredibleness...

I honestly don't think any man could look better than Turo in speedos and chaps! There's just NO comparision! :)

p.s. i'm craving more of that almond caraca or whatever it is! mmmm yessss
