Cape May: Bunker At Cape May Point

We visited the WW2-era concrete bunker at Cape May Point. Built in 1942, it is amazing the thing is still standing, but it does have 6 ft thick concrete walls designed to take a battle ship blast.

The bunker was built to protect the coast from Germans should the United States be invaded during WW2.

After the war, the bunker was decommissioned and used as a military radio center during the 1950’s.

The local government does not allow access inside the structure, but with those thick walls, I wouldn’t expect a cell signal in that thing.

Cape May: Beach Plum Farm

My family and Team Gorcka went to Cape May this weekend to just get away and I have been itching to do some outdoor video projects.

This first video of a little series and it covers our visit to Beach Plum Farm. We had some breakfast and bought bread and jams for later.

Ben also met a chicken.

Plague Vlog: More Fun With Lights

Gorcka found a deal on two small LED lights ($20.99 total and they came with stands) that I thought would better balance the light in my vlogs.

I messed around with the lights to remove shadows and added some color cells for fun. Ben wants to do a Halloween-related show with the red lights… I am going to have to come up with some ideas for that.

Plague Vlog: Too Much Gear

I have been buying camera and recording gear for years. I bought things, realized I didn’t like or need it, and then shoved it in a camera bag and forgot about it.

I started going through all of this stuff to take inventory and get ready to sell some of it… and turned it into a little vlog project.

Plague Vlog: Let There Be Light

Gorcka and I made a LED light for filming last week – which would have been a really cool project to film, but I got all wrapped up in the making and didn’t set up a camera.

That homemade project shined a light on how messy my garage was which resulted in this video.
