Hey Chad! So glad you've decided to take the Steemit plunge and share some of your fantastic content here with the community.
First of all, I think your blog is incredible. I like the design of the webpage, but I also think you do a great job of sharing your photos and videos already, so I'm sure that will translate into success on Steemit.
I was mesmerized by the video of your hiking trip in England. First of all, the scenery was beautiful, and I can only imagine how great it was to take it all in. It looks like you had a great trip. Second, the production quality of your summary video was fantastic. I can only imagine how much time it took to get some of the shots that were only on screen for a few seconds. Kudos to you, I felt like I was walking along with you!
I'll be following along now to see what future adventures you have in store!

I noticed that it looks like you live in Richmond, VA. I'm across the state in the New River Valley, so I've enjoyed seeing some of your posts about areas local to here, especially McAfee's Knob and even your post about Asheville, NC. It's fun to check out your experiences through the eyes of your camera lenses, so I look forward to seeing more of your adventures.
