Cloudland Canyon State Park is located in northwest Georgia. I've visited the park several times since my first visit when I was about 13 years old.

I'm going under the knife tomorrow. This is a long anticipated shoulder surgery to repair my torn rotator cuff and shoulder impingement. This puts me out of kayaking for the rest of the summer. I guess I'll have to spend my time videoblogging instead. Click on the picture below to view the video. Quicktime Version

This is the high resolution version of the previous post, my trip into the Choutta Wilderness to Jacks River Falls. This video features the song "Music Across The Miles" performed by Phil Hamilton and Josh Leo in a long distance collaborative effort posted on their blogs. The download is huge but worth it. A special thanks goes out the Phil and Josh for allowing me to use their song in this video. Thanks Guys! Click on the picture below to view the video.

As planned Luke and I went to the Cohutta Wilderness hoping to catch a black bear on video along the way. We got to the trailhead and I was suprised to see three vehicles already there. I knew the chances of seeing any bear would be slim. We didn't find the bears but we did have a great hike to Jack's River and the waterfall there. Click on the picture below to view the video.

I'm going on a trip to the mountains tomorrow. I'll be hiking deep into the Cohutta Wilderness in North Georgia. My dog Luke and I will be hoping for some sort of encounter with a Black Bear. What ever the result I'll bring back some video of the adventure. Tomorrow look for a special edition of The Southern Video Blog with the option to download higher resolution video from the trip.

I try to do the right thing. I try to treat others the way I want to be treated. When you cross paths with someone with different values it can be a dilemma. I guess it's funny when a trip to do a good deed turns into a rant. Click on the picture below to view the video. Quicktime Version

Two of my friends and I took advantage of the warm spring weather and went to the river Monday. Again I had planned to bring my camcorder and blog from the river. I got to the river to find that I had left it on and the battery had died. I did the next best thing and used the movie feature of my photo camera and took some clips with it and edited everything together. In movie mode it has no sound so I put some music in the background. Click on the picture below to view the video. Quicktime Version

My seventh vlog for Video Blogging Week 2005 (Late Entry). Nantahala is a Cherokee word that means "Land of the noon day sun". When we got to the river Saturday it was anything but sunny. The weather had deteroiated to a wet snowy mess but we ended up kayaking down the river anyway. We were so cold by the time we got off the river all we could think of was a hot shower and food. This final vlog for Video Blogging Week 2005 didn't turn out as I had planned. My original intentions was to blog from on the river along the way. With it raining and our goal for the day was to just get down the river without freezing, I didn't even bring the camcorder. I did bring my digital still camera along and shot a few pics as we went down the river. I've added additional shots from our trip home which includes my nephew Austin "Snowyaking" in the N.C. mountains and some video from a beautiful waterfall in Tennessee called Bald River Falls. Hope you enjoy!! Click on the picture below to view the video. Quicktime Version

My sixth vlog for Video Blogging Week 2005. I'm off to the Nantahala River to go kayaking Saturday and maybe Sunday with our kayaking group. First I have to get everything together and pack it up. Tomorrow I'll be blogging from the river but won't get to post that vlog until Sunday night. Click on the picture below to view the video. Quicktime Version

My fifth vlog for Video Blogging Week 2005. A lot of people think that Whitewater kayaks are made of fiberglass, they're not, they're made of plastic. Tomorrow I'll be packing for the weekend. This weekend I'll be heading up to North Carolina and vlogging from the Nantahala River. Here is a music video I made last year that appeared on our kayaking group's DVD.

While on vacation last week my wife Becky and I were discussing our day ahead over breakfast. Click on the picture below to view the video.

I was thinking that maybe the best way to get some dialog going would be to have breakfast and a blog. Hope you're hungry... Click on the picture below to see the video.
