This is a recounting of another wonderful day filled with feasting, stories of adventure and a great time with great people.
It takes place in the south of Albania, in a region called the Albanian Riviera - a truly wonderful place to visit.
This story follows a full day of mine, starting with coffee at the "Mayor's" place, some bad yoga on the beach watching the sun rise, an early lunch at a local joint that specializes in fresh mountain lamb, mountain goat, and seafood, all caught fresh from the mountains in the background to the sea right off the shore, olive oil from the trees along the beach and lining the mountains, new friends, amazing stories and a Jesus from Kentucky who came with free beers.
It was an honestly amazing day!
These are the times that truly encapsulate the beauty of life!

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
