Bryan and Lauren Jade Szabo spoke about the making of the video, the process and the location which was the Smith River, the largest river system in California that flows freely along its entire course.

No reception is complete without some wine and good vittles to munch on . . .





 
. . . there were three varieties of hummus, one of which was with beets; I'd never had that before.
