USA Trip Day 7 and Trip Home

        So here we are the final day of activities before the trip home back to Ontario, Canada. Anyways my parents and I went to Pennsylvania Trolley Museum and was a fantastic experience. The staff was wonderful and very knowledgeable with the history of Pennsylvania Trolleys.  We got to go on car 78 to their static display barn and have a 20 minute tour of their barn. We got the ride onto another loop in their museum plus a bonus trip back to their barn to see where car 66 was but was on a different loop and found out where they were, just about to depart so that was most definitely a BONUS trip! This is why I said this was the best experience ever. They went above and beyond and my dad got a picture of the Terrible Trolley that was painted with Steelers colours and is being restored to the original colours again as we got to go into the shop and see what they were working on. Again big thank you to the staff and volunteers there for giving us a fantastic experience.

            So now we travelled up to Syracuse and stayed in a hotel for one more night before heading home. The Wednesday the 19th, we travelled back up state through 1000 islands which is beautiful and would love to do a cruise through that one day through Kingston Ontario and home. We arrived home at 230 pm EDT and I just jumped on the computer as I needed a break before unpacking and still haven't put everything away even a week later. Anyways that is the post for the day I will talk to you all tomorrow for a review.

USA Trip, Days 5 & 6

         Days 5 and 6 consisted me travelling to Pittsburgh and was in the nicest hotel and casino there and was close to the River and also the Pittsburgh Steelers Stadium where the football team plays which is my dad's team and as you all know I'm a Packers fan, there is a picture of me with thumbs down LOL. As the crime rate is bad in the city we ate in the hotel and was worth it, had a hot ham sandwich with honey mustard, we delicious! Also got to go play at the casino and gamble a little bit and won the first time I ever gambled at a casino so was worth it. I tried a second time and went bust but oh well I won the first time around.

    The next day we took a side trip to West Virginia which was like half hour from Washington, Pennsylvania which I will get to tomorrow. Anyways we went to Oglebay where there is flower beds after flower beds. Really beautiful state. Wish we had more time down there to explore. The folks there were super friendly and anywhere in the US they've been great minus the Wendy's experience which I will talk about tomorrow. Lady that stopped to chat with us was really surprised we came so far from Canada to visit West Virginia. Anyways I got some souvenirs from there including a West Virginia Mountaineers which is their University there so nice to have that. Anyways we travelled back to PA and I hope you guys enjoyed this and I will talk to you all tomorrow for the final 2 days of the trip.

USA Trips Day 3 & 4!

            Day 3 we headed to Buffalo New York with a stop in Niagara Falls, NY which we have some found memories of Niagara Falls NY as we've been there for Hockey tournaments in the past. Anyways we went to Buffalo and attended a Bisons game as you can see on the right hand side they are indeed the affiliate triple A team to the Toronto Blue Jays. Was a fantastic time and was up close enough to their mascot Buster T Bison. He wasn't too far off from where we were sitting and honestly we were several rolls from the bottom actually and behind the Bison's dugout. 

        Day 4 we headed to Ohio to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Was really awesome and a lot to see and learn about and I actually learned about the early years of Rock and Roll and the history how rock began it's journey it was fascinating to learn the history and gave me a ton more respect for rock music. Small note we found where the Cleveland Browns NFL football team plays by accident as it is literally neighbours to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Anyways that is Days 3 and 4 of my trip, have a great rest of your day and I will talk to you all tomorrow for Days 5 and 6!

USA Trip Days 1 & 2 !

            With all the bad news out of the way, I want to talk about my trip with my parents. Days 1 and 2 was basically time in Niagara Falls Ontario, went mini golfing times 2. There was two courses, easy and hard to do so that was a ton of fun. We checked out all the different rides and the Ferris Wheel was really cool. Also got to see the falls all lit up but was on Day 2. 

     Also  went to the Butterfly Conservatory and saw an array of beautiful butterflies that my niece would actually really love. Was worth the money and visit. Also we took a drive up to Niagara on the lake and went to the town was nice to get out there and I tried Lavender cream rub on my knee which worked well and the pain was less then it was from all the walking I did there. Anyways I will talk to you all tomorrow for Days 3 & 4 and little note end of the week updates will be on Saturday this week for a change but talk to you all tomorrow.

A lot of Changes With ChrisBOnTheWeb!

           Changes continue to be made with ChrisBOnTheWeb. I have spoken about it on stream yesterday on Facebook. As you know I have announced yesterday that I am leaving Twitter after 3 days and now it is 2 days to go and I am officially leaving as of 6 pm EDT Wednesday this week. This means you can only find me on several platforms: Facebook Fan Page, Instagram, Linkedin & of course the Discord Server which I am going to be really super active on there moving forward. 

            I think it is just for the best for me and my brand to leave the platform all together, just not finding the platform to what it use to be and plus the changes on how much we can Tweet throughout the day and now sending DM's is going to have a restriction too? Nah uh, no thank you. Also for the OG's who have been following me a long time, since the beginning, you may remember I was closing in on 4k in followers but that fell apart and lost just over 1000 followers the the span of the last 7 years. The platform is just going downhill and I feel like the growth is there and Facebook and Instagram has grown a lot so I rather focus on my time and energy on that platforms that is growing. A lot of you have supported my endeavour on this change and I will talk to you tomorrow and will be talking about my trip away with my parents.

Trying to resolve problems in the community...

                When I left the community was starting to fall apart again and I lost a members of the community and I understand my content isn't always for them. But also there has been a ton of drama in the community and coming home I knew I would have to get my hands dirty right away! I have a lot to do with the team to assure this never ever happens again.  First thing I need to did was getting rid of the group, was becoming too much really. First thing I did was update the team page, then the schedule page, then the Entertainment Man Podcast. Pages that have needed to be update are now updated now. I am going to be more firm and not unban anyone that we ban to not allow them back in the community as I have been too nice with giving too many chances to certain people. I keep saying yes to everyone and I need to learn to say NO sometimes.

         With the site now up to date, I can focus on getting more interactive with the community and today I will be streaming to both the Facebook and Instagram pages seeing if anyone pops up but excited to be doing updates maybe talk vacation wise. Then Sunday I am off for the day as the studio is closed for the day as it is now my normal day off. I need a break to play Minecraft or any of the video games I own. I actually worked a bit here and there the past 2 days with breaks for video games as I am easing myself back into the hardcore work I need to get done. Anyways that is the post for today, I will talk to you all on Sunday, have a great rest of your weekend.
