Well, it's my last day in Los Angeles, and this has probably been one of the busiest trips I've ever made.

Before I'm out of here, I want to fill you in on a few amazing things that have happened in the last few days. On Sunday I had my photography lesson with John Free and I met John and my friend

Gary Thursday on the Santa Monica pier.

Gary came and agreed to run second camera

and we spent the better part of the day

with John sharing his intense knowledge of street photography.

I will edit all of this together as a separate video that will come out later this week

but I did want to go ahead and just show you guys what fun we had and what a beautiful day it was on Santa Monica.

And by the way I did share the enthusiastic comments

that some of you all left on the announcement video,

and John asked me if I could film a quick response to you guys.

We're going to write back on the comments,

but I thought it'd be more fun to do a video.

Well, I want to thank you. You know, it's so wonderful to hear that.

You know, I'm a loud mouth and a crazy guy, but it's wonderful to hear that I might have been

some help to you. That's my plan. I want to help you get

into the zone, you know, by Ted and I, and I are having a wonderful sound today. But your comments

about me is just really wonderful to hear. I'm so happy and yes this is the

greatest thing I've ever done and I think it's the greatest thing you can do and

what I've learned after all these years of teachings is anybody can do it.

Just get a few switches in your head together and get your heart hooked up to your camera.

And follow me with a smile.
