Exploring Abandoned Mine Tunnels in Arizona and Testing New Gear

First off, do not try what was attempted in this video blog above at home or away from home. Going into abandoned mine shafts, tunnels and other ruins is dangerous! It may be fun, but criminals, wild animals, dead wild animals, poisonous things, rock fall, Philip Bloom, explosive gasses, and other dangers/injury could lurk inside. [...]

Redwood National Forest Pictures

I have been going through my hard drives and I found a bunch of pictures from my Pacific Northwest trip last summer. I shot a lot of video with the Canon 5dmk2, but I also snapped some photographs. Most of these were taken just off the dirt roads. If you look closely, you can see [...]

A New Hampshire Holiday

I have been working to much. I finally took some time to head north and enjoy my little slice of heaven in the hills of New Hampshire. No bathroom, no electricity, no people… but my BlackBerry did have service. I do not own the shelter deep in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, but I [...]

Snowmobiling in New Hampshire

I built this website to talk about television, my work, cool equipment and what I have learned over the years. I did not want my Blog to be like so many others. People who ramble on and on about politics or their favorite pet cat. But sometimes I will make an exception. This is one [...]
