Centralia PA was once a thriving town until a devastating underground mine fire completely changed everything. Come along with us as we explore this abandoned town (that inspired the game Silent Hill) and learn its story.

When you first see a 40 mile bike tour, its very likely that you will be scared of that number. Its going to be OK! This video will help you get ready for the Five Boro bike tour or any similar bike tour you are prepping for.

If you are ever driving though South Carolina be sure to make a "pit" stop at the Peach! 

Might be good...Might get food poisoning? Not sure, but lets roll with it [you see what I did there] and try out conveyor belt sushi!

Yup, didn't know a single person there, but I stepped outside my comfort zone and got out and met people! Here are some of the highlights of my week.

Astor Place in NYC has a ton of history, but have you ever noticed its beavers?

The TWA Terminal, designed by Eero Saarinen, must have looked out of this world when it opened in 1962.  It's so sad that Eero never got to see it before he died.
This was mostly shot during my visit there October 2015, the last day the public could view the building prior to it becoming a hotel.

Otto and I take a little sailing excursion out in the harbor, well kind of sailing, you could hear the engines the entire time...
AND we have a few too many drinks, what a great time.
The brewery featured on the boat was Bronx Brewing, a solid brewery!
 

My friend One-Eyed Mike picks up Otto and me to head up to Fawns Leap, 2 hours outside of the city.  After some beers and some minor injuries all I can say is we had a great time!

Ill take you down to the sub basement where the Metro North Railroad gets its power and tell you about the story of how the Natzis tried to destroy it in WW2.  Then we go underground and dodge the third rail to find the abandoned FDR train car.
This entire video including photos was all done on the iPhone6.  I also used a Gimble (stabilizer), a lapel microphone, and the Ollo Clip iPhone lenses. 

Slip-N-Fly takes first blood on Ryan.  
We head out to Butler, Ohio to experience the wonder that is Ohio Dreams.

Jay takes me out to Sandusky, OH to ride the roller coasters at Cedar Point!

Jay and I tool around in Buffalo and Niagara Falls for a bit while listening to TRINA.  We try some Canadian candy bars and hit the local breweries on both sides of the border.

A few experiences that has shaped my thinking over the last few months.  Life *could be* short, dont hold back!
Also some sweet accordion music and then a movie in Bryant Park!
Beers featured, Cack-A-Lacky by Fullsteam, Goose Island IPA, and good ol' Bud Light Water-mellon-rita
