The gang is breaking up tomorrow. It's been a very successful trip. We found all our locations for the pilot in New Mexico. hooked up with wonderful characters and did some HD scenic motorcycle shots in South Dakota. I'm very thankful. I've always been blessed with great teams of hardworking, creative, ethical and solid people. Below are a few pictures of the characters we'll be filming when we do the main production in August and my crew roughing it South Dakota.



Homer-- the cowboy poet and champion chuckwagon cook.

Shirley Pino's wise Great Aunt-- she's the best Pueblo horno bread maker in New Mexico. She also has a great sense of humor. She felt like a kindred spirit.

Sous and BikerCHEF with horno.

Marty the Mauler (my brother-in-law), Gregory (my sous chef), Jason (my cousin) and Deanna (vice-president of Ars Nova XXI). They're waiting for dinner. Marty was contemplating the Donner party. They're all major assets to my team.

Otto, my brave cat. He travels everywhere with me. He's stalking prey.

Otto's prey- longhorn cattle. I told you he was brave.
