No counselor knows your child like you do. So why would you let one promise to change something that can't be changed? Your child needs you.

Seven years ago above the Shell cracker plant in Potter Township, PA, about 25 miles from #Pittsburgh. The day I shot one of the largest cranes on Earth, the PTC 200 DS, a multi-thousand-ton ring crane dominating the entire site.

Aerial shots. History literally etched into the Point. #Pittsburgh
Today 1758-British & Colonial forces under Gen Forbes (w/Washington) captured French Fort Duquesne, which was already abandoned by French. The British rebuilt the fort and renamed it Fort Pitt, marking a significant victory for the British securing Forks of Ohio-today Pittsburgh.

Oscar Mayer peaked right here. Four years old, fishing solo, bologna in hand. Best commercial ever. Period.
Looking back on it now, it was a pretty gangster move to be out fishing alone on the pier at age 4 with the bologna sandwich he probably prepared and packed his goddamn self that morning.

Rocky filmed it before the cops arrived. I filmed it before my legs gave up. 😂
Sylvester Stallone said iconic Rocky steps scene was shot quickly “before the police” arrived. “I wasn't even thinking about steps. We didn't have any money to shoot there” "I just got out of the car, I said, 'Let me just run up steps, get a shot of it.” https://t.co/9qFXQns400

Four score and seven years ago still echoes here. Fall light over Gettysburg. Calm skies and echoes of the past. Walking the fields where over 50,000 fell makes history feel different when you’re standing in it. The Union monuments and Pennsylvania Memorial mark where the Civil

Not quite eight hours, but here’s a slightly longer version for your sound machine dreams from Worlds End.
@RubenACampos This is better than my sound machine. I wish we could mark this to last eight hours through the night!

Turn up the volume and enjoy 62 seconds at Worlds End State Park, PA — where the only thing ending is your stress.
