Aquaponics


I'd love to grow all, or at least most, of my vegetables in my home or yard one day. This seems like a pretty great system for doing so!

A foreword thinking 16 year old...



This is Awesome! I would hav no trouble living in a little house like this! Bigger is not necessarily better.

On Assignment

On Assignment from renan ozturk on Vimeo.



I really can't get enough of this Camp 4 Collective footage and story telling. Every time these guys put work out, I am there eating up every second of it. Some day I'd love to have these guys produce some video work for Fill Your Bucket. Until then, I'm just a happy viewer.

Danny Macaskill is a Jedi



Every time I see something new from Danny Macaskill I am absolutely blow away. The amount of control and power he has on a bike is beyond what was thought up as human potential. I just can't seem to get enough of his acrobatics. Hats off man, keep the good stuff coming.

Man do I want to travel right now!

MOVE from Rick Mereki on Vimeo.



LEARN from Rick Mereki on Vimeo.



EAT from Rick Mereki on Vimeo.



I haven't seem something this motivating for a long time. As someone who has seen and experienced some amazing journeys in my life I can tell you that the feeling of wonder might be one of the strongest addictions on the planet. What are we really here for anyway? Might as well see, feel, taste, hear and experience as much as this wonderful planet, and its inhabitants, has to offer. Traveling isn't about going to a place, it's about the journey that happens within as you explore the world around you. It's about asking questions, then going out to discover the answers. The change that happens deep within cannot be replicated without physically doing.

This set of 3 videos funded by STA Travel focuses on MOVE, EAT, LEARN as the themes for 1 minute shorts edited out of 6 months of travel by three individuals. Watching these gives me goosebumps as I brainstorm and plan my next journey, and I cannot wait to get started.

Some Beautiful footage

SOLITAIRE: A Backcountry Skiing, Snowboarding, and Telemark Film from Sweetgrass Productions on Vimeo.



I know it is the heart of summer months here in tahoe, and I'm loving it, but sometimes I get the urge to climb the mountain to rip some fresh pow. Watching this video definitely didn't help that urge, but before we know it the winter months will be among us again. Until then we have videos like this.
