Video Transcription

hey folks Joe and Scott here it's Thanksgiving morning Canadian Thanksgiving morning with Scotts birthday two days ago sit it's a nice chilly morning and it's about 9:00 in the morning so before I have to do all my family stuff on Thanksgiving I want to take Scout for a nice three hour walk across the city like we used to do in the spring and falls and winters of other years

summer is too hot he can't handle it all so I got this new camera it's like a GoPro style camera it's called the sjcam 5000 something along those lines sorry about the beagle so I want to take this I'm going to cut my DSLR off here when I go because it's a little bit too big I'm gonna go fast and light just with a small backpack and we'll use this sjcam to see how good it is to see if it's the quality that I can use in my videos or not so it's basically the same deal just got this little block on the top which is kind of hard to get over it off honestly and uh yeah it looks like a GoPro is black no scopez gonna freak out here it's black it has a viewfinder or LCD screen sorry yeah lots of options to like motion tracking time-lapse all that fun stuff but the real test will be if the volume is going to be good enough in this little case with the two slits for volume let's go for a hike will hike up the tallest point in my city and have a good few hours stick along Oh

the scouts nine years old now we turned turn nine two days ago I was gone camping and then yesterday we had to do other Thanksgiving stuff at my mom's house so we got him a good bone yesterday but today I needed to take them for a walk spend some energy I wanted to walk around too because it's nice out so yeah we'll head over to Malden Park
