At a young age, embarking on our biannual family road trip to West Virginia with numerous road maps in hand, I would occupy myself by finding local radio stations on my Walkman and TV stations on my portable B&W TV. The highlight of those trips though would be my patient parents letting me stop at every other service/travel plaza and rest stop along the way to play the arcade games, browse the gif
t shop, and pick up more maps lol. Memories by Wayne began in 2015 on Instagram as a way to share my mass collection of nature related photos to a more public audience. Sunrise/sunsets, lakes/ponds, fall leaves littering a nature trail, was sort of my "specialty" if you want to call it that. In 2015 while in the South Bend, Indiana area I decided to visit this little Japanese garden, and I filmed it. At the time I was also watching Adam the Woo's cross country back road vlogs and thought, "Hey, maybe I could do this on a smaller scale as well." In July of 2016 the official Memories by Wayne YouTube channel was born!
