preparations for ADR and B UNIT pennsylvania abandoned highway

the end of the month, and the beginning of another. my month. the month of making things happen. the year of the pig starts in 19 days for dan kelly and i’m packing it full of fun. For instance, this week is prep for adventure and lots of shooting. i’ve got four trips coming up in quick sequence. 1) to DC with Dirk and Ali, then 2) possibly to the UP to rerecord Steve Zilliax, then 3) to North for Dan’s birthday and decompression, then to the PA for the pike. then i’ll have the 29, 30 and 31st to wrap up. It would be fantastic to close down the legal documents related to DOG and file that with Innes, but I have only 4 days for that. these next 4 days are prep and planning for the trips. from the 7th to the 19th I’ll need audio recording and field production, then from the 21 – 28 I’ll need the full kit, plus steadicam. I could always put a steadicam on my card, go into debt and then pay monthly for a couple of months. That’s a little scary.
we’ve had our ups and downs on this fast, emotionally. I think the pike was interesting, production while fasting. a little smarmy making my juice in the hotel room and a big accident spill in the back of the van too. also i ran out of courage, but that also had something to do with the rain fog lack of sun.
i’ve decided to break fast, day thirteen. lovely orange juice squeezed fresh. so what about this week, what’s the plan? thursday at philipsburg 2 hours drive about. dawn til dusk would be the ticket
