Hello my name is Travis Jantzer! I’m a vlogger from Oregon in the PNW. Online I go by TJantzer. My wife’s name is Cassie and our daughter born in spring of 2019 is named Hazel. If you watch our videos you’ll learn we love rock climbing (particularly bouldering), ultimate frisbee, road trips, diy projects, and drones. We converted a van to a camper for vanlife and take road trips when we have time. We play ultimate in the fall. Climb in the gym from fall to spring. Play Frisbee again in the spring. And play sand volleyball with our friends through the summer. I wrote a book and love writing poetry. Cassie loves watercolor painting and pencil sketching. We both enjoy cooking though she is way better at it. I started on Youtube in 2011 but did not take it seriously until 2018 and even then I was inconsistent. In 2020 my resolution is to make one video every weekend and post it by Tuesday of that week. My passion is video editing. I started doing wedding videos last year and this year got a job shooting real estate photos and video. I still consider myself an amateur, but I’m learning something new with every video.
My goals for 2020:
1 video every week
500 subscribers on Youtube (Done! I’m pushing 1000 now! : )

I’ll respond to as many comments as I see!

Thanks for stopping by!
I’ll see you next week.

  1. Dayum, this guy showed his face in the camera and I fell in love. What am I watching again? 😅

  2. Simple and very natural looking, that’s what you want. I love the water feature, but I think I’ll keep mine for what’s it intended for 😂😂👍👍👍

  3. you called the plastic that you down “pond liner” ; is that some special stuff just for putting down for a running lil creek? if so please give me that info. i just put in a beautiful creek in my front yrd and it has a leak at the lil pond at the end , where the water runs to. it has me totally bummed. it’s been a lot of work, but i want it to be rite when i’m done. lm in N. Calif.
    Thank you Gary Cannon

  4. Travis am a subscriber I like your and am actually want to make one my self I just would like to know more about the water works like how does the water rotate or what pumps to get etc and thanks for sharing your work it’s awesome

  5. How did you figure out how deep the basins needed to be in order to have enough water to run the creek bed without it sucking it dry bringing it back up the return pipe to feed it?

  6. Instead of the wheelbarrow at top, would it work if you used that square rain curtain feature? Or 2 separate pumps would be required?

  7. If we want to create long dry creek , can we just overlap the pond liner for a foot or so or how long did you overlap the liner edges?

  8. I'm new to your videos so apologies if you have what I'm asking readily available. Do you have a video showing the installation of the water lines and pump etc? I mean, how to connect the thingys with the things? Great video thank you!.

  9. Good idea shared by me but hate the wheelbarrow bit .Mold a face of lion and use that as fountain into stream.Same rate in as out
