Rainbow Toro Delivery


VIDEO #224
Random Sounds from the Unknown
A very special delivery came to the door and I am thrilled to show you all what is in the box through this short video presentation. The excitement really comes not by opening the box, but what is inside the object in the box... so think inside the box for a moment.... ok now continue thinking outside the box.

Fun with Food: Celery


VIDEO #223
Song - All Cellphone Ring Tones, can you believe it?
Do you remember those fun, creative treats called "Ants on a Log" you'd make with celery, peanut butter and raisins? Well, don't stop with just the bare minimum for ingredients, go nuts... get crazy with it. Life is way too short to limit yourself to Ants on a Log, you make the rules!

Gringo Gets A Girl

Song - "La Trampa" by Manu Chao

Gringo returns after giving up hope at the Colombia River (Video #186 Gringo Gives Up) and in great luck, he's found a sweet senorita of his own to keep his life interesting. I'm sure we will see these two soon enough! Ole!

Goodbye Frank


VIDEO #221
Song - "When I Look Into Your Eyes" by Firehouse
Frank has been a big part of the family for the last couple weeks and it was a great pleasure to have him for as long as we did. The boss insisted in boxing him up for the year so I found peace in it and came to terms. Frank is a good, if not great, friend. Until next year buddy. I love you.

500 Miles

VIDEO #220
Song - "I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)" by The Proclaimers
I wanted to try a different edit with the recent footage from the big walk so here you go. We might not want to admit it but we all know everyone loves this song, and how couldn't you with this video? It's just good old, clean fun. Ba-Da-Dut-Da!

Travel By Foot

VIDEO #219
Song - "Nothing Else Matters" by Metallica (performed by Rockabye Baby)
Here is the prequel to the sunset video (#217) from the other day. Oregon is not an ugly place to be, I'll just throw that out there. It's amazing that, in one day, you are able to step foot on an 11,000 ft. snow-capped mountain, stop off at a couple roadside waterfalls, dip in a natural hot spring, catch a trout or maybe a steelhead at your favorite river, drop on over to a vineyard for a little wine tasting and end up at the Pacific Ocean to make sure the sun is still setting to the west. A full schedule, sure, but possible.

Indian Summer Sunset

VIDEO #217
Song - "Statued" by Adem and Real sounds from the Pacific
If any of you out there were wondering what the sunset looked like tonight from the Pacific Ocean, have a look for yourself. A high of 70 degrees wasn't too bad for a November day. If everything works out, I will follow up with the journey that led up to this epic sunset tomorrow. Get ready for a long hike!

Locations of the Unknown

VIDEO #216
Song - "Embers "by Adam Hurst and "The Omega Man" Movie sound bytes
One of my favorite clips of old! I thought I'd resurrect this one and share with you fine people of the web. Where and who? When and why? Yes! These are the questions I will not answer. Such fun in the game of Locations of the Unknown!

Human Video Game

VIDEO #215
Mortal Kombat Theme
This could be the shortest video yet, but it's pretty rad! I don't know if you remember the video game, Mortal Kombat? It was packed with cheesy, yet awesome sound effects and bloody goodness with the option to tear someone's head off if you could figure out the secret move on the controller. Good old clean violence, nothing better.
