  • So in this journey I had a bunch of major malfunctions with camera equipment (mostly self-inflicted) but life moves on I will get new cameras to replace the old ones! But for the most part I tried to salvage as much of the video as I could. Come tag along for this trip.

    Brother, you don’t have to make an excuse to spend time at home. The job will NEVER be that important no matter what you do. When the video drops, we’ll watch.

    Hearing you had a great time with your son really put a smile on My face. I can honestly say I envy you, as Mine lives with His mom in a totally different part of the country. Hearing y'all went fishing though, and you're thinkin' of buyin' a boat? man you're just tuggin' on My heart here. That's one thing I always looked forward to doing with My grandfather when younger and I would come down to Texas in the summers. Enjoy the time with him, as you're fortunate enough to be able to.

    DOT is a business that's why they will search for anything. Some run it under safety which is good but most run it so it doesn't look like money is wasted if they bring in revenue.

    Editing is hard work Dude that many don't understand if one never done it before. The complete review, cutting and putting a video together is not easy and time consuming. As you've mentioned in many of your videos, "make your plans guys". That involves effective time management... Family, business, maintenance, then recreation ( video ) etc. Family First.💪🏽
