Day 2 of Vlogger Challenge

Image
 Good Morning Friends!     Just a quick blog update on Day 2 of my vlogger challenge.  Everything is going well so far.  Original plans for this challenge today were scratched on account of a heavy rain that looks like its gonna last most, if not all day.  So today I am filming a more behind the camera type vlog where I go into what we mostly do around our home on a Sunday.     I uncover multiple questions people have asked about our channel, and reveal some of the equipment and props that we use for our show.  From Disney merch, to camera and sound equipment, I go over just about everything.       It is the last day of February, and I have to say I am very excited for spring to arrive.  Temperatures this winter have been brutal to say the least, and hopes with warmer temps in the forecast we are well on our way to better weather.  I like to do my vlogs outside in the open elements.  It's what I'm all about....

Vlogger Challenge Day 1

 Greetings Everyone!     Today was the start of the 5 day vlogger challenge.  Jessica and I did our first challenge video at the Cincinnati Zoo!  It was quite an experience.  After weeks of bitter cold temperatures we were treated with weather in the sixties, and sunny.  We couldn't ask for a better day for our little adventure.  The animals were out and very active as we traveled the park.  It was almost like they knew we were coming.  We got such great footage.  It was an absolutely gorgeous day!     I was happy to start this challenge off with such a great video.  This is probably a little easier doing this on the weekend than it's gonna be during the work week, but I'll cherish the easy as I can get it. Haha!  This will be a difficult task toward the end of the week, but am excited for the challenge.     This will be a short blog tonight as I am pretty wiped out from our long trip today.  I jus...

The Vlogger Challenge

      Happy Friday Everyone!     Hopes that everyone had a great week, and kicking off something awesome for your weekend.  Tonight's live stream went very well as more, and more people keep joining.  It was a lot of fun getting in touch with a lot of my subscribers, and viewers.  We discussed many topics, and just had a great time sitting and chatting with each other.  This is what I wanted.  A live event that I can host to give back to the fans who have followed me on this journey.     During the live stream tonight I revealed what my next project is.  The Vlogger Challenge.  I am challenging myself to a five day lifestyle vlog, where I will be posting a video everyday for five days straight, and ending with the live event next Friday.  I hope I'm up to the task.  It's gonna be very tough, but I feel I am up to the challenge.  Sometimes when things seem ridiculously hard already, you have to push your...

The Live Show

Good Evening Friends!     Tonight I would like to touch on some of the more fun things I've been doing lately with my YouTube channel.  Recently I have been hosting live shows on Friday nights to interact on a more personal level with my viewers.  I have really enjoyed it.  It is so interesting going on a live stage, and creating an open environment to discuss many topics that everyone enjoys.  In a world right now where everything is depressing with the whole pandemic going on, it is really nice to push some positive energy toward a lot of people.  I have done 3 of these live shows so far, and they keep getting better, and better, every week.  I hope to keep it going on a regular basis.     The Live Show has been something that I have put in the hands of the viewer.  What an amazing experience.  People love it.  Most importantly they know their ideas, and opinions matter.  At the same time I feel it is helping me gro...

All In!!

 Hello Friends,      It has been a long time, and a very long journey since my last blog.  I have been on a YouTube mission!  A path I never thought in a million years that I would pursue for as long as I have.  It has had so many ups and downs that I get so lost sometimes.  Lost in a world of trying to entertain the world while keeping myself entertained and not so drained.  Videos do good, then they do terrible.  The one thing that I knew that was consistent was that I wanted to keep fighting.  Being a lifestyle vlogger on YouTube has been rough.  One day you're excited to put out the one awesome video.  The next day you're scrambling for ideas to film no matter what just to keep it going with a video that might not be much quality, but you have to keep your channel moving forward to keep that algorithm working in your favor.  I'm so tired, but I am all in!           Six months later I ...
