Side Story: Rockin' Bodies on the Oregon Coast

I woke up on Sunday (8/24) in a no service zone. After packing up my car and reaching cell connection again, I saw that I had missed a Facetime call from my little brother. However, he had recorded a facetime video voicemail for me. The below video was that said recording.

I recognized the song they were singing, but I couldn't remember how the beat or other lyrics went, so later that day, I googled the song-which turned out to be "Rock That Body" by The Black Eyed Peas-and played it while I made myself lunch at Siletz Bay Park. Immediately upon playing the song, I felt an underlying desire to bust a move. This spark an idea. I would satisfy my urge to dance AND playfully one-up my brother by making a dance video to the song.

I finished my lunch, found a spot under a bridge, and got to work. After finishing the video and sending it to my brother, I decided that the whole experience would make an excellent excuse for a blog post! The video below is the result of my work. I hope you have as much fun watching as I did making it.
