Peak baby opossum season runs February through September, which means we’re right in the middle of that window. If you see a dead opossum on the road, it’s entirely possible there are babies alive in her pouch or somewhere nearby. Stop and listen for soft sneeze-like sounds (that's the joeys calling for her). You might get an opportunity to rescue some baby possums.

While others are playing Robinson Crusoe in their backyards, I show you the realities involved with getting out there for real, and how to stay safe and have fun. It’s work, but it’s rewarding work.

Going on a kayak adventure is one thing. Taking video is one thing. But figuring out how to outfit the kayak to capture it all in an appealing, narrative way that makes you feel like you’re there with me is another thing altogether.
The right power, the right angles, the right mounts (you’d be surprised how hard this has been) the right wiring, the right placements, the right water protection considerations, the right tethering so that nothing goes overboard and is lost forever…
…and knowing that none of this stuff is what is most important. The most important - even while documenting it all - is trying to completely forget about the cameras, breathe in the natural world, live fully in the moment, soak in the experience, and stay safe doing it.
I got my tour date and time for Buffalo Trace Distillery tour in late November. It's so hard to find in Eastern Pennsylvania I figured I'll go to the source. Last place I had some charged $11 per shot.
