Wow - I am a fellow Gemini ( 6-5-64 ) I actually like your banner - mine is a multi pic with my channel name on it (but that may change in the future). Right now I think as a newbie to YT I am just trying things out so see what feels good. It’s difficult when you have a lot of loves - that is my struggle. Great video - keep going!
@@Iz-SixtyandBeyond Some "experts" say the banner should reflect what your channel is about, which is hard for me since I haven't totally nailed that down yet lol
Hey Allen. Just binge watched your first three videos. You have such a great approach and I know this is going to fire. I started at 68. Keep up the good work
Buc-ee’s is the best. I went to Texas in 2016. I was in awe as it was absolutely huge. Been there quite a few times since then when I visited Texas everything like you said from meat to sodas to water, souvenirs all sorts of things seen the gas pumps is amazing.😮
I've been to three Buc-ee locations so far. On my way to Florida from North Carolina, I stopped at their Florence, SC, St Augustine, FL, and Daytona Beach, FL facilities. They are the best at what they do. One is in the process of being built about 12 miles from my home in North Carolina. I can't wait. Thanks for another good video.
Hey Allen, I'm not an expert by any means, but I've been inspired by you and many other to start in this content creation side of internet, from what I been "studying" (if you can call it that) I've noticed that a really good growth mechanism is TikTok, maybe if you did some talking videos like this but a little shorter, or maybe a daily posting about your job experiences, love the job let's grow together my friend!
@@EnricoWaichel Thanks a lot! It will probably hurt my chances of any growth I might get by doing more on other social media like a TikTok, but I'm going to just stick to doing it this way for now as I'm trying not to make it too time consuming.
Great video and congrats on your by now 68 subscribers. You seem like a pro on camera and with editing considering you just posted a few videos. The only way is up from here :)
You'all doing Great. Hi Allen. OldGuyOut Tony here. I too am 62 and had to start with You'all as I lived in Texas awhile..13yrs.. Sugarland, Richmond, Austin and Killeen. Glad you started. Been fun and a great learning experience. Look forward to watching more. Keep up the Good Work. Take Care, God Bless, and 'Let The Adventure Begin'.
@OldGuyOut I moved here in 1994. Originally from Florida. Living in Richmond now. You probably wouldn't recognize it if you haven't been here in awhile. Houston is too crowded now. Glad you stopped in to say hello!
Most Welcome. Us 62+rs need to stick together. Any low tax low cost of living state runs into same problem...influx of people then overcrowded and that quiet life goes away. Austin was no different and samething happening to Florida.
Nice to see a behind the scenes of making videos and the frustrations that come along with it. It looks like you are aiming to be a UA-cam UA-camr, so maybe a UA-cam logo on the right side?
Thank you! I've been working hard at getting in the flow. While I have a video background, youtube is a different animal for sure. I hope I can make it to 60 videos like you guys!
@@allenreid62 you’re doing great…just don’t stop posting regularly. We stopped posting three times due to life changes and it really hurt the growth of our channel. Post consistently and try to improve by at least 1% with each video and your channel will grow.
@@josegrijalva3492 Listen, Jose...trust me...I hate seeing and hearing myself. If I can do it, you can do it! Watch my "How I Film And Structure My UA-cam Videos" and you'll see what I mean. Good luck!
I am watching that one right now, great videos. I was wondering how you mounted the camera in your car, now I know and saved the link to order it. Thanks again for replying. I am now subscribe to your channel. 👍
I’m thinking about restarting my UA-cam channel. I’ve been on instagram all this time and stopped in August 2024. I found myself spending a lot of time in editing, especially for a 1 minute video. I don’t want to spend more than 10 minutes on editing. I have 4 sons, a full time job, and I don’t have that kind of energy. Any ideas?
@impact4life58 A lot of people are just sitting in front of a camera, often times just their phone, and just talking about whatever is on their mind with no edits. That's one way to do it. Good luck!
keep going, you got this and it is starting to come together. I know for me, I’m failing my way to success 💥
Inspiring journey dear friend ❤❤❤😊😊😊
Thanks for watching!

@@TheCarnivorePensioner I hope you're right...thanks for binging!
Yes, I've been to Buc-ees in or Outside of San Antonio. I saw your channel. This is Virginia Kerr.

@@pocketgreetings6450 The one I showed is pretty old. They have a lot bigger now.

Wow...I didn't realize they have branched out that far now. I grew up in Florida, so that's good to see. I bet they are packed.
Your videos are well made and interesting.
@MeanderingMiMi-f1q Thanks you!
❤
New subscriber. New you tuber age 59 1 month channel. Susan new era. So much to learn
Welcome and thanks for subscribing!
Your video's are great. I really enjoy watching you. I hope to be half as good as you someday.
Thank you...that's nice of you to say.
2 videos and 60 subscribers? I would say you are doing just fine. Like your style.
Oh..and Love Buccees. Of course in Texas along with WhataBurger. Had BEs in Tennessee and now in Florida too. BBQ Brisket..Yum!
I think an alligator to the side on your banner would be nice.
Good video. Turned out to be behind the scenes of a UA-camr and what we go through to make UA-cam videos.
@BobsUtopia Thanks Bob. When do you head out to the big island?
@@allenreid62 end of oct. Can't wait
Just subbed to help a fellow gen xer!
Welcome! Buckle up and enjoy the ride!
Love Buc-ee's!!
@@cman3636 you and me both!
Been to the Buc-ee's in northern Colorado. Keep going! You're doing great and very inspiring for others!
@KellyM-du4mj Thank you Kelly! I didn't realize Buc-ees had gone that far west. Thanks for watching!
Allen Reid - more than what you read~

You have one more subscriber now. I’m new to the UA-cam game myself so I always appreciate the information 😂
That's great! Good luck with your channel!

@@wabisabisylvie111 Thank you! 100 is the next goal. It may take awhile.
@@allenreid62 Same, small goals are better than no goals

Glad to hear!

Love Bucc-EE’s
@@jcophoto75 It's great!
Your videos are so steady and cinematic compared to our earlier videos! We still struggle with it after almost 60 videos.😂

Warning. Do. Not. Eat. Bucees Beaver Nuggets. More addictive than crack.
Awesome video. Great quality! What camera are you using?
Thank you. I've been using the Dji Osmo Pocket 3 and really like it.
Thanks for replying, I have that one as well, been wanting to start a channel but hate seeing myself on camera and hear my voice. 😬
