We shot a LOT of videos in 2017. Out of the nearly 200 videos we've posted this year, we found the top 10 most popular ones for you to enjoy.

From our weekly series like "Firefighter Friday," "Beth & Dave's Best," and "The Zoo's News," to Reviews (like a new wine created for "Wine in the Wilderness") and testing out myths ("Do Walmart Ice Cream Sandwiches Really NOT Melt in the Sun"), we've covered a variety of topics and ideas in all the videos we've shot. And like we said, we shot a LOT of videos in 2017 - 179 videos to be exact. That's like almost one every two days! With all those videos, it's obvious we covered some pretty popular topics (and even some not-so-great ones). These are the most viewed videos on our YouTube channel that we shot this year...

We didn't know we were going to be buried under several feet of snow. As a fun way to measure all the snow falling, Naomi Lynn set out a lawn chair in the morning and continued to check on it throughout the day.
