Well, things have been very slow on the BHV channel since the calendar turned. If you've been keeping track at home, you'll notice I've only uploaded 3 videos in 2025. I have been swamped every single day with college, and as long as I'm at U of I, I do not anticipate that to change anytime soon. However, I am going on spring break next week, so I will hopefully edit more stuff then and get closer to being caught up. No guarantees, though. Editing takes a long time and I have a lot of videos to get through.
Now, let's look into the future. More specifically, summer 2025. I have some big plans once again. Let's answer some questions.
Where are you railfanning this summer? I will be returning to both Rochelle and Galesburg's Railroad Days events. Rochelle's is 5/31-6/1, while Galesburg's is 6/26-6/29. Odds are I will only visit Rochelle on 5/31, and Galesburg on 6/27-6/28. I also plan on going back to Ogden Dunes in early July, likely 7/5. I went on 12/21 (video pending), and it was an awesome time! There will be one other railfanning trip to the suburbs in early August, likely back to West Chicago or the Racetrack. If you have any suggestions, sound off in the comments!
Will there be a big road trip again? Actually, two. I am on the UIUC RST 180 'Hall of Fame Tour' across the northeast, occurring on May 19-30. Destinations include Cleveland, Niagara Falls, Lake Placid, Philadelphia, Canton and Indianapolis. Also, my family is planning a road trip to Colorado, likely centered around Denver. More details to be revealed later.
What about sports? I have plans to go to 4 MLB games this spring and summer. The list, tentatively, looks like this: 4/15, Athletics vs. White Sox 5/27, Braves vs. Phillies 6/21, Diamondbacks vs. Rockies (tentative) 7/19, Red Sox vs. Cubs (tentative)
Return of roller coaster content? My university's coaster enthusiast club is planning a trip to either Kings Island or Six Flags St. Louis. Exact date is still TBA, but it'll likely be in mid-late April. I also plan on returning to Six Flags Great America to ride the new Wrath of Rakshasa dive coaster, as well as my first ever visit to Indiana Beach. I am very excited to do all that!
Overall, I have big plans, and I hope that I can finally get caught up on all the content that you guys have been waiting for and deserve to see.
