Videos from around the world featuring diving, hiking, and other travel. I'm hoping that they're getting better with practice. Either way, we're having fun.

    I already posted on Dry Tortugas and Blue Ridge Parkway so I guess that Key West must be coming up. It certainly warrants a video all to itself.

    Love, love this one! That area brings back so many memories. Our family went on annual trips to Cayucos for many years. And you even stopped in Harmony, population 15! To me, probably the most beautiful coastal scenery anywhere. The whole trip is a winner-thanks so much for sharing, John!

  • @johnvilja
    @johnviljaАй бұрын

    My brother suggested we meet there so we went to do a mini family reunion. It was surprisingly easy to fly into Spokane and take the short drive to Coeur d'Alene. A very easy long weekend. The Candle in the Woods was a real find for us.

    Sounds like an awesome road trip! Definitely take the short detour through Valley of Fire on the way to Zion. Our favorite trail in Zion was the Valley View hike, but take it early. Here's a link to our video in Zion kzread.info/dash/bejne/ppdhlJqqddfcZ7w.html

    Hey John! Really enjoyed the history of this race. And what a great way to get to the race-so fun! Any chance you will head to Las Vegas for F1?

  • @johnvilja
    @johnvilja2 ай бұрын

    We really love watching F1 racing even though most races aren't particularly competitive like Indy or sports car racing. Furthermore, the cost of attending in person is ridiculous. General admission for F1 costs the same as the food provided, open bar seats we get at Indy races which have much less predictable outcomes. We keep looking but we're not yet sold on the value of attending F1 just yet.

    There are some other good launches coming along in the near future. When Blue Origins New Glenn launches it'll be quite a site from Cocoa Beach since their launch pad is the most visible from there. Could be a good reason to go back.

    Careful. Very careful. Many vineyards are still deforesting native forests for vineyard development. Avoid Bremer, Davis and 100 Acre and NEVER Hall! Be very careful. Do research. Help us locals keep our watersheds healthy! BTW pretty funny video!

    Thanks for your comment. This is an issue about which we don't see much information. Can you share a resource where folks can learn about the issue and where we can learn which vineyards are being most responsible?
