USA Sojourn

Texas

Me, my brother, and Esteban.


I spent 3 weeks at my older brother’s house just north of San Antonio in the country. He and his wife live on 5 acres with a barn. No animals yet but they’re going to get chickens and goats. Everyday, my bro Kelly, and I worked on the property, cutting down trees, burning the wood, building gardens, taking things apart, putting up gutters, weed whacking, mowing the lawns, and moving dirt to fill holes or some form of landscaping. We cleared out a space under the trees in the forest behind the backyard fence. It’s now like an enchanted forest. I loved being at his place, and the pool with a view, but I gotta roll on.

The view from 2nd floor of the ‘Ranch’.

Their nephew, Esteban, was there so we all had a merry time doing fun stuff. This included visiting two amusement parks, a water park and Six Flags. Their scariest ride called The Joker we rode 3 times.

Editing

I’m editing many projects one being the Roadents trailer. Is this documentary of a bad ass biker gang, but instead of Harley Davidsons they ride the little electrical scooters you rent on the street. Watch below.

Miami Revisited

Now I’m back in Miami, specifically in Plantation, a little west of Fort Lauderdale meeting with a construction company about an editing job. BTW, I use to work as a laborer for this company back in 2008-2010. Alongside my co-workers and boss we sweated under the Florida sun building stone and brick structures and constantly mixing concrete, or cement, or thin set. We have a lot of fond memories together. Hopefully I’m going to edit for them remotely.

Conclusion

Life will be a new beginning if I can finagle a ‘remote job’ while living overseas, in Brazil for example. There, it’s more difficult to communicate and understand but sometimes it’s better like that.
