Read Dead Redemption 2

Rarely have a been carried away by a video game as I have been by Red Dead Redemption 2. What an absolutely amazing, outstanding, and somewhat heartbreaking game. Admittedly, Arthur and I had a rough start, I really hated Chapter 1 because learning the controls in this game (and learning to not accidentally shoot people) takes way too long. But once that was over and the story truly began, […]

Feeling let down by GoPro's replacement program. My Hero11 Mini failed after my trip, so I paid the $99 replacement fee and sent it in. It's now been a month since I opened the ticket, they have my old camera and my money, but no replacement in sight. Customer service has been slow with poor follow-up. I'm ready to ditch the GoPro ecosystem but really want my camera!

After over 40 hours of editing, I'm making great progress on episode 2 of the Pony Express trail series! With 15 minutes of footage already done in DaVinci Resolve, it feels like I'm working twice as fast as on the first episode. I still have about 5 more minutes of video to go, plus color grading and other final touches. I'm doing VO on the fly as I edit. The whole thing's coming together nicely!

Camping on the salt flat at Smith Creek Nevada. #PonyExpress #TruckCamping #Overland #OffRoad #4x4 #SaltFlat #PowerWagon #RAMTrucks

A red RAM Power Wagon with an OVRLND pop-up camper is parked on a dry lake bed at dusk. The camper’s rear hatch is open, and a small step ladder is set up at the back, illuminated by a warm light. Mountains are visible on the horizon under a dark, clouded sky with faint traces of sunset.A red RAM Power Wagon with an OVRLND pop-up camper is parked on a dry lake bed at dusk.

On the Pony Express Trail. We camped here on a section of Smith Creek, a salt flat in Nevada.

Just wrapped the Pony Express Trail from Salt Lake City UT to Virginia City NV with our crew Lee, Ranjib, and Sam. Two full size (Power Wagon, F250 Tremor) and two midsize (Tacoma, Frontier) trucks ran nearly 800 miles, 600+ on dirt, in 6 days. Ranjib had to head home early and was missed on the final stretch. Thanks to Lee for leading the charge. Videos coming soon.

Getting ready for a pass of the Nevada section of the Pony Express route next week! A small group of us will tackle our planned 540 mile route over a period of 6 to 7 days, starting just south of Salt Lake City UT and ending in Carson City NV. I’ll be rolling video and will assemble one or more YouTube videos to capture the experience!

A friend mailed a card from San Francisco on April 2nd and it arrived today, April 15th at Gibsons BC, near Vancouver. 13 days. #PonyExpress would be faster. And they wonder why the postal service is going broke.

For all its legend, it’s pretty amazing how short-lived the #PonyExpress really was.

Always read the plaque. This #HistoricalMarker on the wall of a building at Broadway and the Embarcadero notes the former #BarbaryCoast wharf to which #PonyExpress mail was delivered to #SanFrancisco during the #GoldRush.

Photograph of a historical marker affixed to a brick wall. The upper portion of the plaque depicts a map of the Pony Express route from St. Joseph, Missouri, west to San Francisco. It is surmounted by a galloping horse and rider. Below it, a stylized lasso surrounds text that reads:

“PONY EXPRESS WHARF

NEARBY WAS THE LOCATION OF THE BROADWAY WHARF. THE WHARF EXTENDED FROM BROADWAY AND DAVIS STREETS EAST TO THIS LOCATION. ALL OF THE PONY EXPRESS MAIL THAT WAS DELIVERED TO AND FROM SAN FRANCISCO USED THIS WHARF. THE PONY EXPRESS RAN FROM APRIL 3, 1860 TO NOVEMBER 20, 1861.
THE PONY EXPRESS MAIL WAS CARRIED BY EITHER THE ‘RIVER STEAMERS’ OF THE CALIFORNIA STEAM NAVIGATION COMPANY THAT OPERATED BETWEEN HERE AND SACRAMENTO OR THE FERRY ‘OAKLAND’ THAT OPERATED BETWEEN OAKLAND AND HERE.”

This text, and the lasso, are together bracketed by the dates 1860 and 1861.
