Putting cameras in race cars piloted by amputee veterans, sleeping in a van for three nights ( ), and accidentally stepping on my two day old pizza (VansKilledPizzaLife)... And, having a blast! All in the first day. Stay tuned!

The Chevy’s across from our Gilroy hotel is slightly less open than when we ate here a month ago... Good thing we found BBQ 152. Power for another day of filming!

Our taco game was on point this week! Two visits to Ruby’s in three days. Definitely Top-3 in the official Toolbox Video Services South Bay Taco Recommendation Guide. Nothing like delicious tacos to soothe a full week worth of 12 hour days. If we’re gonna keep working in Silicon Valley, I guess we’d better toughen up on the crazy hours!

Toolbox Taco Review may need to be our second business. We’ll review taquerias in the areas where we’re working. This lunch scored a solid 8. Now how do we monetize that...?

We should probably talk about the cool work we’re doing... But tacos are delicious, and pretty freakin’ photogenic! Toolbox Video Services can be found at a taqueria near you.

Construction is well under way at 222 Taylor in The City. Got some good shots while an ancient bomber did laps over us in prep for Fleet Week.

Working hard, or hardly working? Charlie and I took a Go-Kart break midway through a two day video shoot in San Jose. It was awesome, but also put about 3-weeks wear-and-tear on our bodies in 15 minutes. GoPro footage to follow...

Our latest video is pretty action-packed, and was a blast to produce! If anyone in the Bay Area has tree issues, these guys certainly have the talent and equipment to get it done.
