      In the warmer weather I am always on the lookout. I can think of four different hikes in 2024 where I encountered rattlesnakes. The last encounter was in November and that was one the feistiest one. Came out from under a bush but I stayed clear.

    Your video themes and presentation are fantastic, and the editing makes them so engaging. A lot of creators in your niche don’t focus much on creative editing, but you really stand out in that area. From the videos I’ve seen, the editing really caught my eye. What are your plans for 2025? try some challenge-style videos-they tend to grab more attention from viewers. I look forward to seeing more amazing content from you in the new year. Wishing you all the best!

      It is a completely different world for me. We first discovered Tucson in 2001 and knew we'd live here some day. I grew up in the Lake Ontario snowbelt, so of course this is completely different. The city has an excellent vibe, and I love the year 'round hiking availability, but I have a hard time figuring out the weather at times. Overall though, I love it.

One thing that strikes me on my visits is how bad the homelessness is, plenty of homeless in northeast of US as well but it seems much more prominent when I am there. The access to the outdoors seems unmatched from anywhere I have traveled to in the 50 states. Pros and cons I suppose.
