Our Story

If you have read my blog you may have remembered me mentioning the book, A Million Miles in a Thousand Years by Donald Miller. Well, since Joey cyber stalks Donald Miller on Twitter, he knew immediately that he wanted to participate when he saw this challenge on his website.

The funny thing was that we had already discussed this story together weeks earlier and had already planned it and have been working out to prepare. This video was just perfect time to put our vision on record. No going back now!

If we are going to be really honest, there were really a couple reasons we created this video....
First, we really wanted to win the 1000.00 prize money to give to the Dale House in Colorado.
Second, we wanted to have this adventure creatively documented for us to keep
and,
Thirdly, and more far-fetched, Joey and Johnny just KNOW that if Donald Miller (Don, as Joey calls him) could just hang out with them for like one hour they would all be great friends, so they are inviting him on this adventure with us
So, with these things in mind, Jess, Johnny, Joey and I became film producers overnight. We had Johnny's old camera, a black backdrop, and a light.
I guess all that is left to say is....ROLL TAPE!
