It's kind of a big day right now. It's June 21st 2019 which means it's the summer solstice.
It's the longest day of the year so I just
feel like it's fitting that you got to get up for sunrise and also be up for
sunset on the Solstice.
There it is! Happy solstice.
Just last week I quit my job. For the first time in my life I'm self-employed
and starting today I leave for a road trip for the entire summer.
I'm making my first documentary.
I feel weird calling it a documentary is this even a documentary?
Why do I feel weird calling it that? I guess I feel weird calling it
that because I don't feel good enough to call it a documentary.
It was super bittersweet leaving this job because I just I became such good friends with all
the people I was working with and just loved hanging out with everyone at work
but I had an opportunity to come up that I just could not pass up.
It is getting cold!
I'll finish this story on the way down
My buddy Jacob sends me a text one day and just says "check this out" It's a link
to Race Face Creator Series. Race Face is this mountain biking brand who is
sponsoring some filmmakers for the summer to kind of just create a project
that they're passionate about. So I pitched a project for it and was
selected as one of the filmmakers for this summer.
It's gonna be about a lot of the themes that I talk about on this channel
already and that's redefining success and kind of finding what really matters in life.
So yeah I'm stoked that I have this opportunity to travel in the van now I
am about to embark on one of the greatest adventures of my life so far
I'll be traveling from here in Colorado I'll be headed up to Teton National Park
and then headed west to Santa Cruz area and then kind of working my way up the
west coast hitting a bunch of spots to mountain bike along the way until I hit
Whistler
The film should be done later this year I don't know exactly when it'll be
released but I should be done like end of August early September so we'll see
how it goes I'll keep you updated
I don't think I'm gonna get that sunset shot I was talking about with the
solstice because it's snowing. I hope you can see that it's literally snowing it's
the first day of summer and it's snowing in Colorado. I love this place.
I think that's all I have to say. I'm sick of talking right now
