Equipment: WIFE!!!! Freaking hilarious! My ex would say, "Tool: Husband"...come to think of it, she likely still does. First, you have a spectacular catalog of music you integrate into your videos. This was another great video, obviously, because it's about my home town, Denver. But you put some good information into the video to keep interest without making it distracting. You also have a very artistic approach, which truly illuminates why I love road travel -- drinking in America. We truly live in a blessed country for so many reasons. However, its beauty - in almost every corner - truly seems a creation of God. You capture that nearly spiritual essence in these urban videos (Denver, NYC), as well as the desolate areas (16-14 Wyoming I-90 West: The Middle of Nowhere II). You put in just the right amount/type of effects to make it pop, without it being gaudy or like a LeRoy Neiman experience. Many aspiring video artists indulge themselves rather than accentuating the art. You accentuate the art of road travel! Thanks for your many videos! I am a huge fan! Thanks for your love of our great country's "road riches".

Denver is the 1.6km high city, its elevation is around or exceeding 1.6km, thus it is cool during the nights, and hotter in the day. It is sunnier than So-Cal, and has pleasant daytime temps all year round, but its lows can get rather chilly, albeit in the summer its nicer than where I live. We have average lows of 11 degrees in July-August. Denver is 14-15 average degrees low in Jul-Aug, much better than my city, and San Fran, with its average 12-13 July-Sept.

I got lost in some back streets by a Salvation army , I believe around a mile from down town , anyways I was shocked and sickened to see obviously malnourished homeless people sleeping all over the concrete ground and benches , you would think that the city would feed these people Geesh. I'm going to spread the word that these people need help , hope everyone else spreads the word too !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! these ain't the same people that are on the street corners with cardboard signs begging for money , most of them people look like there very capable of doing work , the people on the concrete couldn't even move.

This is what happens when you legalize marijuana. People come here to buy marijuana, find out it is pretty expensive, still buy it and either live on the streets or out of their cars. Where I live, the Human Services people buy these people bus tickets to get home, but weeks later, they are back and the cycle repeats itself. We need to either legalize marijuana throughout the country or ban it throughout the country.

I really love these drive and they make an interesting viewing during breakfast or lunch. The music you play is just great and sets the scene well. The music has also opened my mind to many new artists and bands I'd otherwise never discover and thus has lead me to many a purchase. I used to think driving around the freeways of South East Queensland (Brisbane) listening to uplifting trance was the epitome of a joyous drive. My new driving music enables me to see my environment in a new light. Awesome vids.

Interesting, I've never had issues with Hampton Inns myself. As for the trip itself, I can imagine how long of a trip it is. A few years ago, I did a road trip with a friend, managing to make it from Temecula, CA, to Minneapolis, MN, in two days. The stop at the end of Day 1 was in Parachute, CO, which I selected specifically to ensure we went through Glenwood Canyon in daylight. The rest of the drive was just LONG. We left from Parachute at about 5am MT and arrived in Minneapolis at about 2am CT. (My friend slept from Grand Island, NE, to Ankeny, IA; then he took over driving and I slept as he drove up I-35.)

Amazing, you were in my neighborhood. We have some nice hotels in the Tech center, but the staff at most of them are not very good. We just had a hotel torn down because they failed their inspection, and were dropped by a major national hotel chain. The Marriott Residence Inn DTC is pretty good, and there was another larger Hilton "probably a bit more expensive unfortunately" right up the street. I am a huge fan of your videos, and you always pick the right music and the perfect times of day to make amazing videos. Love the video editing as well. Sorry your experience in Denver was disappointing at the hotel, there is also some nicer hotels just up the street a bit in Centennial / Lone Tree right off the freeway.

There's also the Margaret T. Hance Deck Park in Phoenix over I-10 between downtown and uptown. It's where the central library for the city is as well, right above the freeway.

Your Hotel travails reminded me of the 'Seinfeld' episode where the rental-car place failed to give him a mid-sized car and after arguing and saying that he didn't think they understood how reservations work, he accepted their compact and agreed that he'd need the insurance for it because . . ." I'm gonna beat the hell outta this thing " > Looking forward to the rest of this excursion. You are still the standard.others are compared to.

FreewayJim.... I feel your hotel pain as I travel 4 days out of the week. I too have remained loyal to HiltonHonors, and especially Hampton Inn, mainly due to the reward points. After the second experience I had VERY similar to yours, I now go to the HiltonHonors app, plug in my destination address and I choose one of the Hilton brands in the vicinity that looks like the newest facility. I can usually tell when a Hampton Inn is out-dated because I prefer a specific room and when I don’t see that room, I know it’s outdated. I will add one more suggestion, I fly a lot so I tend to arrive to my hotel late in the evenings. When using the HiltonHonors app, I always select my room when making the reservation and I can “mobile” check-in 24 hours in advance with the room I selected at the time of reservation. When I check in through the app, I also select the mobile electronic key so I can bypass the counter in the lobby and go straight to my room. This has saved me A LOT of pain, especially when a large group is checking in. And if you prefer that key card from the lobby check-in, go ahead and select an electronic key when you check-in with your mobile phone 24 hours in advance. When you arrive at the hotel, let the receptionist know you prefer to have a card key. This way you are covered in the event it’s late or there is a large group in the lobby. Either way, you have already selected the room and floor you want and have covered yourself rather than relying on the hotel staff. Hope that works for you on your next trip.

Fyi...my son & wife experienced a Hampton Inn that was horrible in North Carolina. They gave him the room. Sadly he experienced the same situation at an old historic hotel in Savannah. They ended up not having to pay for an expensive dinner or the room. They were quite uncomfortable and disappointed. It was too late in the day to head home to Augusta so they toughed it out.

I had a bad experience at the Double Tree in Bloomington MN. The cable was out and I had to call 3 times to find out what was going on. It was out throughout the whole hotel that night at least it came back on after a couple of hours but it was bad to have to call several times to find out the case. At least the gave me a complimentary breakfast the next morning so that is at least something.
