It's kind of a long story...An explanation and apology for where I've been hiding.

The last few months have been life altering for me to say the least. I haven't posted much on Social Media for a while. I've just been absent. Hopefully this clears things up.

When I first discovered your channel I was unemployed too. After job hunting all day I would relax at night watching your channel, it was my little reward. After some time I got another job and brought a side by side. Was going to buy the same one you have but I just didn't fit comfortably in it. I bought a Polaris Razor Trail cause I fit much better in it. Thanks for sharing all your adventures, it really helped to cheer me up and keep me going when I was down and out. You guys put great content out there to help Newbies like me make our own adventures. Appreciate all you do and glad things are going well for you now Paul

[@MyATVlife]

That hits me right in the heart. Thank you for sharing that.

[@chrisbarney7367]

Best of luck on your new job and looking forward to the videos to come.

[@oldbuzzardvideo1399]

I'm sorry it was a story about starting over and I hope it turns out to be the best thing that ever happened to you! But,,,, a good story line with a personal touch just adds a ton, like a whole nother excellent dimension to your videos! Well done!

[@MyATVlife]

Hopefully the next story will be more up-beat. 🤣👍

[@NelsonSam]

The writings on the wall at my place of employment too. The thought of starting over stinks. Glad you’re moving on and with a positive attitude. Now enjoy every minute you get with the family and the Mav.

[@tedstamm3093]

Great to hear from you. Wish you and your family well and hope everything goes good with your new job. Definitely not easy with change after working somewhere for that long. Happy trails and thanks for all the work you put into your videos

[@MyATVlife]

Much appreciated

[@slugfest100]

Sorry to hear about the job loss but pleased you found a replacement. I've been through that exercise and there's nothing fun about it. But your spirits are good, and your plans for upcoming rides sound great. I don't think you need worry about folks leaving your site. You and your wife make great videos that are both interesting and a pleasure to watch. My wife and I, along with another couple, did make it to the top of Patterson Peak located northeast of Yosemite. We reached the summit at 11, 700 feet and it was fantastic. The UTV's never missed a beat so it was a great adventure. Keep up the good work!

[@MyATVlife]

Thank You !

[@chrispaul9068]

I really like your video content. You turned me on to the Paiute trail system. However, I’ve had my eye on the Yamaha YXZ for some time now. There are thousands of miles of trails here in southern Utah and Northern Arizona. Hopefully will be getting one soon. I rent a Razor when I go to Marysvale. Rose Ranch has better machines than Lizzy and Charlie’s IMHO. Thanks again for your love of the Paiute trail system!

[@GetlostwithKenny]

Winters usually aren't fun for me either, haven't had the usual snow here in the Magic Valley, but it has been miserable cold and windy! Usually can sneak in a ride here and there, but not this winter. We all get in a funk and semiseclude, we get it. Maybe I'll catch you at the expo, sounds like I'm as excited as you are! Springs almost here, then your fun can pick up again!

[@rmax4haliburton]

Onward and upward. Great content!

[@rickc1287]

Sorry about you having to change employers. Change always messes with your routines. Am looking forward to any videos you put together. Hope to see you and Suzanne in Sumpter!

[@sullyone8373]

I was wondering.... Great to hear from you again. Sorry about the curveball. Keep your chin up and good luck. Looking forward to more when you're ready.

[@MyATVlife]

Thank you!

[@reedembley5197]

Hey Jason, sorry to hear about losing your job. Good luck on your new endeavor. I've got my first ride in the San Rafael Swell the end of this month. We'll have to see how the weather and conditions are after this glorious winter full of good water that we so dearly need (but I am sure getting tired of running my snow blower instead of my RMAX).

[@trailrider570]

Keep on Keeping on were still here .

[@idahoblessing]

Understandable. We have missed you guys!

[@louissantoscoy6461]

Sorry to hear about your employment situation. Hope things work out for you. In my younger years I lost a few jobs and soon learned that I wanted to be on my own. That decision has been the best thing for me and my peace of mind. Now my wife and I can travel whenever we want and plan trips without hesitation.

[@MyATVlife]

This has lit a small fire in me to figure something out to be on my own. I'm tired of working for someone else, and my loyalty not being reciprocated. I will land on my feet 👍

[@maraudermitchelli]

I'm sorry you lost your job, and I'm glad you have a new job. As usual your video quality is fantastic, just beautiful scenery you're so lucky. Be safe and I look forward to new content.

[@MyATVlife]

Thank You so much ! Things are looking up. It might be a slow year for us, but we'll do what we can. Things will only get better. 👍

[@johnellis6959]

I just found your channel about 3 weeks ago so I’m just catching up on all your content and really enjoying it. I hope you’re enjoying your new job.

[@MyATVlife]

Thank You !

[@64chevellegal]

Good to hear you can still do a couple of trips and still be able to get out this year! I to started a new job almost 7 years ago when I was 50 so I know where you are coming from! Best thing I ever did though and turned out great! Hang in there and see you at the Expo!

[@io3010]

Thanks for sharing. Life has its ups and downs for sure! We all have issues in our lives to overcome, positive thinking and a good wife really helps! Love going along with you guys on your Mav trail adventures!

[@MyATVlife]

Absolutely!!

[@scottberry9315]

Welcome back….you have been missed. Sorry to hear what you went through. Just know we’re still on here waiting on that next video. You guys are awesome! Keep on keeping on 👍🏻

[@MyATVlife]

We appreciate that. Thank You !

[@GR-xl1lk]

I am glad to see your videos. Hope your new job goes well. It's hard to start over. I have learned a lot from your videos.

[@MyATVlife]

Thank You

[@paull6374]

I'm really glad you found good employment. Thank you for your channel. It's the reason I found out about the trail model and why I bought one. I truly hope this new chapter in life is good for your family.

[@MyATVlife]

Thank You

[@rockymountainbackcountry1588]

Bro, I feel your pain. With what the government is doing with rates and the economy, well, I understand the scramble. I'm there too. Thanks for sharing. Keep riding.

[@MyATVlife]

Thanks brother

[@robertgibson7328]

Jason, Glad to hear that you are doing well, but sorry to hear about your new challenges. I too worked for a company for 25 years and was part of a reduction in force. It sucks, but to be honest, I landed on my feet and have a way better life now. I'm slowly building my PTO back up, which was also very hard for me to lose. I look forward to your UTV footage! Rob

[@MyATVlife]

Thank You !

[@highperformancebassboats]

Good Job Cowboy!!

[@UtahOutlander]

You've been missed! I was just thinking about y'all the other day. Glad to see you post this. I went through something similar, toward the end of 2021. Lost my job after 20 years. It was a big hit mentally. I ended up just living off the piddly severance and savings that I had wisely socked away for a while. I needed the break. Congrats on accomplishing your "thing"!! Glad you're back on your feet job wise, even if things are a bit different. Looking forward to camping videos again! Best wishes to ya!

[@MyATVlife]

Thank You !

[@Broknex]

Well, life sure can throw curve balls from time to time, that's for sure! Glad you found another job, tho! I hear ya about starting over in your 50's. My wife and I are a "bit" older than you, and we just started over, as well by purchasing a business this winter. Both scary and exciting all at the same time. I believe everything happens for a reason, my friend. Keep on keepin on! Cheers from the middle of nowhere Alaska!👍

[@MyATVlife]

Thank You ! And good luck to you and your wife on the new business. 👍 One day we'd like to visit Alaska. It's on our bucket list

[@timothyhansen7905]

Glad you found a job and hopefully it will work out for you both. 😊😊

[@caroljbodily9212]

HI Jason, Glad to hear things are looking up for you. We really enjoy you and Suzanna’s channel. Thanks for you work. Can you give more information on the where and when is the expo in Boise? Sounds like it might be something we would like to do.

[@MyATVlife]

It is April 1st and 2nd at the O'Conner Field House in Caldwell Idaho. If you're on Facebook just search "Idaho UTV Expo" and you should be able to find all of the details. or Idahoutvexpo.com

[@ManzanoManATVAdventures]

It is crazy to hear about your separation from your employer and your recovery steps. When life throws curve balls there is nothing wrong with taking a break and taking care of home life. It is good to hear you are in a more stable place now and I look forward to your work on the channel in the future. Take care my friend.

[@MyATVlife]

Thank You

[@Yota_Freak]

[@StacySalmans]
